It is abundantly clear that the alleged 'journalist' responsible for fact-checking this had an ulterior motive.
The High Court does interpret constitutional legislation
The ambiguity does include a risk of delays and dysfunction due to poor wording in the proposed legislation
Australians wanting to know what they are actually voting for is not 'misinformation'.

I stopped wasting my time here. It is clear that whomever did this assessment was being disingenuous. Won't waste my time reading further.
