Coalition purchase price for Palmer.

Palmers debt.
Carbon tax bill $35.8 million.
Even if the Abbott government is able to repeal the carbon tax, Palmers bill will increase unless the repeal is applied retrospectively as Mr Palmer is trying to achieve.

WA election means Abbott must pay money just like Gillard did.

"The addition of WA candidate Dio Wang means the government will have to deal directly with PUP senators and their ally Ricky Muir, from the Motoring Enthusiast Party, on issues such as repeal of the carbon and mining taxes.

Mr Palmer warns a deal with the government is not guaranteed despite his general support for the repeal bills.

His support on the mining tax repeal is dependent on the government dropping plans to axe welfare payments for children of dead or severely injured soldiers.

He also wants repeal of the carbon tax to apply retrospectively to its introduction in July 2012."
