Liberals can't cling as Gillard does Isobel Redmond in South Australia, Ted Baillieu (almost) in Victoria and now Terry Mills in the Northern Territory are making Julia Gillard's feat of hanging on look even more impressive: Former federal MP Dave Tollner is the tip. But sad for Mills. Good enough to win a surprise victory, but not rated enough by his colleagues to actually govern, Bad tip. Mills does a Gillard. He's still Chief Minister. Is the new Deputy Chief Minister - Willem Rudolf Westra van Holthe - the most exotically named politician in Australia, after, of course, Senator Concetta Fierravanti-Wells? This will split the NT's ethnic Dutch vote in any future CLP leadership wrangle, with John Elferink also in the hunt.
