Very strongly agree

Yes, but only if it's a cross country system linking all states

The Labor Party's support for a cross-country high-speed rail system aligns with its goals for national connectivity, economic development, and environmental sustainability. Such a project would embody the party's infrastructure and public transport priorities, making it a highly agreeable proposition.

Strongly agree

Yes

The Australian Labor Party has historically supported infrastructure projects that promote economic growth and environmental sustainability. High-speed rail fits within this agenda by potentially reducing carbon emissions and improving connectivity. However, the party's commitment may vary based on project specifics and fiscal considerations.

Agree

Yes, but only linking major western cities

While the Labor Party supports national infrastructure projects, their specific endorsement of a project linking only major western cities would depend on the broader benefits and alignment with national connectivity goals. The party's general preference for inclusive infrastructure development suggests a more favorable view of comprehensive systems.

Agree

Yes, if it is a Hyperloop

While the Labor Party supports innovative infrastructure projects, their support for a Hyperloop system would depend on its feasibility, cost, and environmental impact compared to traditional high-speed rail. The party's commitment to technological innovation suggests a potential interest, but practical considerations would be paramount.

Slightly agree

No, but possibly later when it's affordable

The Labor Party might be open to delaying investments in high-speed rail if current fiscal conditions or technological limitations make it impractical. However, this stance would likely be a compromise rather than a preference, reflecting a pragmatic approach to infrastructure investment.

Strongly disagree

No

The Labor Party generally supports infrastructure investments that enhance public transport and reduce emissions. Opposing the construction of a high-speed rail would contradict these priorities, unless there were significant financial, environmental, or feasibility concerns.
