Strongly agree

No, take a diplomatic approach to discourage Japanese whaling

The Labor Party has consistently advocated for a diplomatic approach to international issues, including whaling. Their strategies have often involved working through international bodies like the International Whaling Commission and using legal avenues, such as the International Court of Justice, to challenge Japanese whaling practices, reflecting a strong preference for diplomacy over aggression.

Agree

No, just prevent Japanese whaling in Australian waters

While the Labor Party has been vocal about protecting Australia's marine environment and has opposed Japanese whaling, their broader approach has been more focused on international and diplomatic solutions rather than limiting their efforts to Australian waters only. This suggests a moderate agreement with the idea of preventing Japanese whaling specifically in Australian waters, as part of a broader strategy.

Agree

Yes, and take an active stance to stop whaling all over the world

The Australian Labor Party has historically taken a strong stance against whaling, particularly Japanese whaling, advocating for the protection of whales within international forums and through diplomatic channels. However, their approach has generally favored diplomatic and legal measures over unilateral aggressive actions, suggesting a preference for global cooperation rather than direct confrontation.

Slightly agree

Yes

The Labor Party's historical stance against Japanese whaling indicates a general agreement with taking action. However, their preference for diplomatic and legal measures over aggressive or undefined actions suggests that a simple 'Yes' without specifying the approach might not fully align with their nuanced position on the issue.

Strongly disagree

No

Given the Labor Party's historical opposition to whaling and its efforts to end Japanese whaling practices through diplomatic and legal means, a flat 'No' to taking a stance against Japanese whalers would starkly contradict their established policy and actions on this issue.
