Controversial Queensland MP Bob Katter hopes he won't be sitting alone in Federal Parliament after the election.
Mr Katter is determined to make his fledgling party a political force in Canberra.
"Just give me the power and I'll give you ethanol to fill your motor cars up for 74 cents a litre, as they did in Brazil," he said.
The controversial MP holds the seat of Kennedy, which stretches from the Queensland's east coast all the way to the Northern Territory border, with a margin of more than 18 per cent.
He is considered a shoe-in for re-election but has little warmth for Canberra or for his fellow MPs.
"I don't mean disrespect to any of them but the word admire isn't a word I'd use to describe any of them in Parliament," he said.
Mount Isa Mayor Tony McGrady said Mr Katter, who is well known for his colourful one-liners and outspoken views, had a knack for generating publicity.
"I think you get a handful of politicians who can strut the national stage and get publicity, and Bob is one of those people," he said.
Following the last election, a hung Parliament made Bob Katter a power broker with a national profile but the forthcoming election will test if a party bearing his name appeals to the wider electorate.
