How will Turnbull get the money needed to govern if he calls a double dissolution?
Malcolm Turnbull is waving around the possibility of a double dissolution in early July, a course that would carry both dangers and potential high gains for him, although how theyd balance out is unpredictable.
Turnbull has repeatedly said that he expects the election at the normal time between August and October.
But he has also declared a double dissolution a live option, and recently the odds on this have shortened, especially as the government looks to a deal with the Greens to change the Senate voting system to squeeze out micro players in future elections.
The government denies it is just raising a double dissolution as a threat, but you might wonder when you look at that pathway.
The problems hinge on dates, and they are tight.
