Compare how Kimberley Kitching and Lisa Singh voted on the Coalition's new schools funding policy ("Gonski 2.0")
Kimberley Kitching
Former Australian Labor Party Senator for Victoria October 2016 – March 2022
Lisa Singh
Former Australian Labor Party Senator for Tasmania July 2011 – July 2019
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should implement the Coalition's new funding policy, proposed under Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and dubbed "Gonski 2.0", so that it replaces the previous Labor Government's Gonski agreements
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?
