There's this weird belief that minority parties are supposed to ignore their own policies and just support whatever the closest major party wants. And not supporting the major party means they're failing in this duty.
So Labor could drop the plan and blame the Greens for it, instead of actually pushing for their own policy. And the media frames this as a failure by the Greens.
The same media that almost unanimously supports Australia's right wing conservatives, but I'm sure their opinion on this particular point is completely unbiased.
I see !dadjokes@lemmy.world is leaking again.
