Finally someone says it out loud. It was doing my head in how this was staring at us right in the face as a possibility but got overshadowed by Dutton getting obliterated. I don’t know how, but Labor have someone manage to vaporise not one but two opposing party leaders in a single election. It’s nuts.

Three if you count Clive "retiring" from politics.

Clive will be back. He's like Palpatine.

Somehow, Palmer returned.

Palmer just plays with politics — to the tune of over $250 million so far — as a hobby, a bit of fun. He has said his wife allows him the hobby! He'll get bored and try again; not to win, just to have fun.
