I only heard a small snippet of Dutton's concession that the ABC played while I was driving home near midnight. It was focused on Dickson rather than the prime ministership. But that part of it, at least, was really good IMO. Explicitly saying your opponent will be good, the really heartfelt personal touch about her son. I was impressed. Honestly if the person who delivered that speech was the same person who ran the campaign (and has been a powerful player in politics for more than the last decade), he may have won.

But of course, that man would have had an entirely different political trajectory, so who's to say. Considerate people don't exactly excel in the LNP.
