Voting record
Every vote must state a public reason. Most recent first.
“We misunderstood the terms of the bill - CZ cannot strip gig workers of their protections under any conditions.”
“This law is certainly a step in the right direction, though very far from what we hope for. It does, however, beg the question - why did CZ decide to remove all protections in the first place? It marks another confused episode in a Prime Ministerial term marked by contradictory messages and legislation passed in the name of anything but the people.”
