I HAVE A SOLUTION!
Right. Australia has decided to stride boldly back into the 1950s and is following Britain's lead in electing a hung parliament.
It's not certain yet, but it's looking very likely. But I have a solution!
The ALP will obviously seek to hold onto their two friendly independents, and can make a sincere offer to the Green who has won the seat of Melbourne, so they only need one more person.
Obviously, they should look across the parliament and extend the hand of friendship to one who is their natural compatriot, one who holds many of their values dear, one who would be willing to listen to a friendly voice after years of suffering the slings and arrows of outrageous party members.
And it's not as though he would be hard to woo. Give him a good spot on the front bench and he'd shine. He's smart, he's charismatic, he has fabulous hair. In fact, given the inevitable bloodbath that will occur in the Labor caucus after this disaster, why not skip past the bitter recriminations and internecine factional battles and just offer him the top job as an irresistible incentive to change his colours?
Yes, Australians, you know what I'm saying. Our next Labor Prime Minister -- Malcolm Turnbull.

No, though Malcolm was VERY dashing and quite alluring and staggeringly intelligent, he only swung one way.
Oh and he's also an awesome kisser too 8-)

Of course, I am irrestibly reminded of the Draco = Turnbull comparison!
