The marker starts at their party’s position and shifts only for floor-crossings towards a neighbouring party. No topic strip is shown because their economic, social and environment votes followed the party line.

What have they done lately?

On 30 March 2026, King spoke in support of the strategic-reserve bill, saying its financing and stockpiling tools would strengthen fuel security and secure critical-mineral supply chains. On 11 March, she supported the Northern Australia infrastructure bill, which extends the facility to 2036, but voted No on two specific amendment questions: one would have banned financing for coal, gas and native-forest logging, and the other would have added climate rules and First Nations consultation; both were defeated. These votes do not by themselves establish opposition to the bill as a whole.

When do they vote against their party?

About these numbers

Based on 766 tracked bills from the 47th and 48th Parliaments, current to 6 July 2026. This is a sample of parliamentary activity, not the complete record.

Career markers come from dated public records. Voting figures use division lists only. For party members, the left-to-right marker begins at the party position. It moves only when the member votes against that party and on the same side as a neighbouring party; other cross-party combinations do not affect it. Independents and minor-party members are placed by their votes in divisions where the Greens and the Coalition took opposite sides. If this position differs from a member’s broader public politics, a note appears below the strip.
