MINING magnate Clive Palmer says only his wife knows whether he'll found his own political party.
Mr Palmer suggested more than two weeks ago he was considering establishing a United Australia Party but hasn't made any further announcements since then.
The former LNP life member, who has publicly fallen out with Queensland Premier Campbell Newman and Deputy Premier Jeff Seeney, couldn't be drawn on his intentions on Thursday.
"If I started a party that would depend on what my wife said. I'm the boss of our family but I've got her permission to say so," Mr Palmer told reporters on the Gold Coast.
"I'm totally under her control so you'd be best to have a press conference with her to find out what I'm doing.
"My wife is a difficult person. Takes her a while to be convinced on things but sometimes she just makes a decision instantly.
"When she does I have to follow."
LNP defectors Alex Douglas and Carl Judge have both been linked to Mr Palmer's proposed party, with Dr Douglas expressing an interest to join if it's founded.
Mr Palmer refused to be drawn on whether he'd spoken to either MP about the party but did reiterate his support for their decisions to leave the Queensland government.
"One of the rarest things in politics is political courage, the ability to do something, stand up and go against the trend," he said.
