election nights are heart-attack inducers. don't fret though scomo's gotta go…...

Network Ten sounds like it is putting together an election night panel with a difference. Once again Project host Waleed Aly will be at the desk for 10 News First: Your Decision. Election Night. He will be joined by newsreading icon Sandra Sully, national affairs editor Hugh Riminton and news presenter Narelda Jacobs.

On Wednesday Ten announced others involved include Project regular, Walkley-winning Jan Fran, the Coalition’s social services minister Anne Ruston, along with Labor shadow industry minister Ed Husic. Ten’s media release is spruiking its program as “an intelligent, engaging, insightful, interactive and informative election night”.

But there is one highly intriguing name missing from the publicity missive.

CBD hears Ten’s energetic political editor Peter van Onselen, who will be co-hosting the telecast, wanted a moderate Coalition voice on the panel. Step forward high profile government critic Rachelle Miller who is set to form part of Ten’s line up, negotiations permitting.

 

Miller is no stranger to the news cycle since appearing on ABC’s Four CornersCanberra Bubble episode, where she revealed her previously secret relationship with cabinet minister Alan Tudge. Miller is now seeking compensation from the federal government over an undisclosed matter. The former staffer to stood-aside minister Tudge has accused him of emotional and on one occasion physical abuse. Tudge has denied her allegations and hopes to return to the cabinet.

If it does eventuate, Miller’s appearance will differentiate Ten’s panel from the usual election panel suspects such as Michael Kroger, Graham Richardson, Julie Bishop, Wayne Swan and Craig Emerson et al. Bring it on.

Teary Tim Wilson concedes defeat to Zoe DanielBy Latika Bourke

Tim Wilson is conceding the Melbourne seat of Goldstein to teal independent Zoe Daniel.

He began to cry as he talked about his husband Ryan.

“Nobody’s pretending you’re not shattered after something like this,” he said.

“My contribution at this point appears to be ending.

“It’s challenging to face the fact,” he said.

“It is what it is,” he said but said that looking at himself in the mirror he could unhesitatingly say he did everything he could.

He would not comment on his political future when asked if this was the end of his career in parliament.

“I’m a fighter, I always have been ... I’m just looking forward to taking some down time, resting and looking to the future,” he said.

He said defying his prime minister to oppose an extradition treaty with China was one of the achievements of which he was most proud.
