Federal election 2016: Cory Bernardi forms conservative political movement, by Jared Owens.

Cory Bernardi has announced the formation of a new cross-party political movement, the Australian Conservatives, to gather proponents of “limited government, traditional values” and “plain old common sense”. …

“As of writing, over 1.7 million votes were cast for right-of-centre or conservative parties rather than the Liberal Party. From my perspective, that was the Liberal base expressing their unhappiness with past events.”

“If you believe in limited government, traditional values, defending our culture and heritage, lower taxes, a stronger nation, a stronger economy and plain old common sense, then you have a lot in common with millions of others. Now is the time to gather together.

With both main parties captured by political correctness, there is certainly an opening, a need even, for a non-PC main party. Sounds like this is what Senator Bernardi is aiming for.
