Compare how Barnaby Joyce and Simon Birmingham voted on the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme
Barnaby Joyce
National Party Representative for New England since December 2017
Simon Birmingham
Liberal Party Senator for SA since May 2007
How they voted compared with each other and someone who agrees that the federal government should introduce the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme, which is a cap-and-trade system of emissions trading introduced by the Rudd Labor Government
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?
