Did he really have a choice though?
Labor played smart politics with this and forced Dutton and the conservatives into a corner where they'd have to justify not giving tax cuts to the vast majority of people while giving thousands to the wealthy. It was always going to be political suicide to fight this. The outcome of them backflipping and supporting this was inevitable.
