Teal or no teal? Why these independents might stay solo

Australian independents Zali Steggall and Allegra Spender are exploring forming a centrist political party, but most other teal MPs oppose the idea. Melbourne's Monique Ryan and Perth's Kate Chaney ruled themselves out, while Andrew Wilkie and Helen Haines strongly oppose it. For success, the party would need to recruit moderate Liberal MPs, but none have publicly signaled interest in jumping.
