Former Liberal senator Cory Bernardi says he is open to the idea of returning to the party in the wake of Scott Morrison's re-election.

The South Australian senator left the Liberals in February 2017 to form the Australian Conservatives.

Having been re-elected as a Liberal in 2016 his term still has three years to run.

Senator Bernardi told Sky News on Tuesday he was open to discussing a return to the Liberals with the prime minister but would not be compromising himself.

"I've said no to that because I'm over party politics but I do consider myself to be a traditionalist Liberal," he said.
