Compare how Brian Burston and Anne Urquhart voted on voluntary student union fees
Brian Burston
Former United Australia Party Senator for NSW June 2018 – July 2019
Anne Urquhart
Australian Labor Party Senator for Tasmania since July 2011
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that university students should be able to choose whether or not to pay student services and amenities fees (also called student union fees)
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?
