Betting markets open on next senator to resign
ONLINE betting agency Sportsbet.com.au has opened its markets on what party the next senator to resign will belong to - in the wake of two Greens resignations in as many weeks.
The Coalition leads the way at $2.00 ahead of Labor on $3.00 with Pauline Hanson's One Nation not far behind on odds of $7.50.
The Greens going for another own goal is rated a $10 chance.
"Let's just say this is not something the other parties will be green with envy about,'' said sportsbet.com.au's Will Byrne.
