  Most of the Coalition. All of Labor. None of the cross-bench.

    Not a surprise that all of Labor voted yes, given their party policy around caucus solidarity. I’d be interested to see a list of people opposed to this bill behind closed doors.

    I’ve really come to despise Labor’s policy of not crossing the floor. I get their desire to show a united front, but it really makes it hard for regular folk to track how the party is shifting if we don’t ever see who supports what on an individual level.

    None of the cross-bench

    None of the cross-bench in the Senate. But 4 of the independent MPs.

    Ms Chaney, Mr Gee, Dr Haines, Ms Spender

      Cool. I was referring to last night’s Senate vote that passed 34-19.
