Idk, I can't vote for her and I don't vote labor except once all my actual preferences are exhausted so I'm not really paying much attention to this. I don't vote labor because they pull nonsense like this, acting like there's some way "not being divided" over mass murder is worth a damn.

If they're talking about an IR bill or whatever then idk maybe not getting wedged makes sense but children are dying. I don't really know how much more obvious the right side of history can get than "the side which stops children dying".
