When you hear someone say ‘I’m not against more housing being built, but it needs to be affordable, and high quality, and have proper amenity’ that is the noise of someone who is opposing housing
Planning is almost politically unique in that ‘yes’ as a positive decision to act has immediate consequences usually experienced by people as an unwelcome and immediate change, even if it results in medium term improvements, while ‘no’ which simply preserves the status quo, broadens the negative consequences over the whole population over a much longer period of time
I remember trying to get it through to a now former State Labor MP, years ago. He was trying to argue against blocks of flats going up in his western Sydney electorate, because flats were ugly. I argued, they’re flats in western Sydney, they’re going to be full of Labor voters. He could not see it even when he had a literal direct interest in doing so
As for the greens and crossbenchers, the ‘pro renters (to our renting voters) but anti-housing (to our potential voters)’ dance is very obvious to everyone else and is laughable. You can just say ‘fuck you got mine’, it’s ok
