What an absolute BS poll. Poll just 1,068 people polled (probably Guardian readers, a YouGov poll) and they are able to extrapolate that out to a headline of "Almost half of Australians support sending military to help defend Taiwan"
What a croc of shit

I agree with @Garban 's take on the polling business, as the margin for error/inaccuracy is often times too high, neverminding the fact that people can change their minds at the last moment.

Sample size way too small to take anything from. Be interesting if those polled have any idea of what exactly it would entail for Australia. Or the history of Taiwan / China. Or the current Taiwanese position (How would they know that? By conducting a similar 1000 person poll in Taiwan probably).

All based on the false assumption that people tell pollsters the truth. They don't. Then they wonder why the polls were 'wrong'.

The sample size was pathetic. Most schools are bigger

Most polls need to be taken with more than a grain of salt. Pollsters have agendas.
