YouGovYouGov poll for Equality Australia, July 2020 · Jul 2020 · Australia national
Verification note. Percentages, pollster (YouGov), client (Equality Australia), month of fieldwork (July 2020) and sample size (1,026) are stated in Equality Australia's release of 18 January 2021. No exact fieldwork days, mode, weighting or margin of error were published, and no topline was released, so wording is Equality Australia's summary rather than YouGov's literal item text and field dates are recorded at month precision.

Wording reconstructed from: Equality Australia media release summary of the item
Wording notes: negatively-worded statement ('should not be able to') | asked in the context of the then-live Religious Discrimination Bill debate
tilts_affirming — the item names the most sympathetic case (firing and expulsion) rather than the general question of religious-school autonomy
Young people should be able to access healthcare that supports them to live as their true selves.
Wording reconstructed from: Equality Australia media release summary of the item
Wording notes: 'live as their true selves' is advocacy framing | does not name puberty blockers, hormones or surgery
tilts_affirming — 'healthcare that supports them to live as their true selves' is euphemistic and avoids the specific interventions that drive opposition in other polling, so the 66% is not comparable with items naming blockers or hormones
