Compare how Phillip Thompson and Meryl Swanson voted on capping gas prices
Phillip Thompson
Liberal National Party Representative for Herbert since May 2019
Meryl Swanson
Australian Labor Party Representative for Paterson since July 2016
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should have the power to put a limit on gas prices in order to address rising electricity costs
Now this is where it gets a bit tricky… Two people might vote the same way on votes they both attended, so their votes are 100% in agreement. They might also have voted in a way we’d describe differently when looking at all of one person's votes. If the other person didn’t or couldn’t have attended those votes we leave those out of the comparison. Because that just wouldn’t be fair now, would it?
