Newspoll and Ipsos state breakdowns

State breakdowns from recent polling by both Newspoll and Ipsos agree that Queensland remains a major headache for the Turnbull government.

The Australian has today brought us its quarterly Newspoll breakdowns, whereby three months of polling is condensed into results broken down for the five mainland states, so as to provide such numbers from reliable sample sizes. That much at least was predictable, but we also have today the same exercise from Ipsos courtesy of the Fairfax papers, which is a first. This is because Ipsos poll samples have been pared back from 1400 to 1200, presumably for reasons of cost, and the pollster no longer cares to publish state breakdowns from such small sub-samples, and has thus gone down the Newspoll path of aggregating them on a quarterly basis.

The Australian provides comprehensive Newspoll tables if you’re a subscriber (also featuring breakdowns by gender, three age cohorts and mainland state capitals versus the rest), but all we’ve got from Fairfax so far as I can see is two-party results (more detail may follow in due course). In New South Wales, Newspoll has Labor leading 52-48, while Ipsos has 53-47 (there’s an error in the Fin Review graphic, but that’s what it is); in Victoria, it’s 53-47 from Newspoll, and no less than 56-44 from Ipsos (which is most of the reason Ipsos’s results have been better for Labor lately than Newspoll’s); in Queensland, it’s 53-47 from Newspoll, 52-48 from Ipsos; in Western Australia, Newspoll has it at 50-50, while Ipsos unusually has the Coalition up 53-47; and in South Australia, Newspoll has Labor up 51-49, while Ipsos has it at 52-48 (the latter is inclusive of the Northern Territory, although that shouldn’t matter much – ditto for Newspoll rolling the Australian Capital Territory into New South Wales).

All of which should put BludgerTrack on a firmer footing for its update later this week, despite the likelihood that there will be no new national poll. Also out today is a ReachTEL state poll from Victoria, which is covered in the post below.

  1. Tony Trump at it again. This time in America itself:

    Washington: Donald Trump is right to argue America’s traditional allies, including Australia, have been “freeloading” off the US for too long, former prime minister Tony Abbott has said in a speech favourably comparing Trump to his “moralising” predecessor Barack Obama.

    https://www.smh.com.au/world/north-america/tony-abbott-trump-s-right-allies-are-freeloading-off-us-defence-20180712-p4zqy0.html

    I think the danger of Tony is manifest in the way he has with words. He can make anything he wants to sound plausible.

  2. “Just because preferences are directed to a party doesn’t mean that you support them, quite the contrary,” said Malcolm Turnbull in February, displaying all of a barrister’s skill in portraying white as black if it suits his case.

    The occasion was a weak attempt to distance himself from the odour of the Liberal Party preferencing One Nation ahead of the Nationals, let alone Labor, in the WA state election.

    Now, with Liberal Party preferencing One Nation ahead of Labor in the federal seat of Longman, there is no distancing. Mr Turnbull is up to his eyeballs in orange hair dye.

    For the Coalition’s more conservative elements, there’s no problem with One Hanson’s erratic, sectarian, racist populism, or its loopy economic fantasies.

    For Mr Turnbull though, there’s no longer a possibility of denying the stink. It’s his. It’s the smell of lost hopes.

    The Liberal Party’s defacto coalition with One Nation finishes whatever pretence of principled leadership Mr Turnbull once sought to portray. It’s purely about the keys to The Lodge, whatever it takes to keep his job.

    Once you’ve kowtowed to Pauline Hanson, there’s nothing left.

    Somewhere, an empty leather jacket.

  5. Welcome to Digital World.

    A company that issues Aviation Security Identity Cards (ASICs) — designed to stop organised criminals and terrorists from accessing planes and other restricted airport zones — has been hacked, leading to concerns that Australian airport security may have been compromised as a result.
    Hundreds of people applying for, or renewing, ASICs through NSW-based company Aviation ID Australia received emails on Wednesday telling them their ASIC application information may have been stolen, the ABC has learned.

  8. Thanks BK. The desperation of the government to deflect attention from the fact that one third of our biggest companies pay no tax is shown in this story.
    http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-07-12/personal-income-tax-dodgers-cost-federal-government-billions/9982526

    Yes $8 billion is a lot of lost tax, but in a total for income tax in 2015 of $258 billion it is less than 4%. Whereas the underpayment of tax by corporations is roportionally ten times worse. Despite this, there is no current budget policy to make corporations pay a larger share of their tax rate.

  9. I was referring to the cartoon itself, BK. Where’s the joke? That Bill Shorten would be lying if he claimed to have the support of Mark Latham? I don’t see how that qualifies. Maybe the answer lies in whatever the CFMEU guy is supposed to be doing, but I’ll be buggered if I can work out what that is.

    The ATO had a sample of only 858 to determine this figure, is this the equivalent of single seat polling accuracy wise ?

  11. Thanks BK.

    Tony ‘Captain Catholic’ Abbott calling Obama moralising is pretty laughable. Does he not have an ounce of self-awareness?

  12. Hmmm… Trump has added $200 billion to the trade war, effective in two months time. And he is demanding that NATO countries double their defence spending to 4% of GDP.

    I bet Putin can’t wait to go huggies with his toy POTUS.

  13. Yes, that Zanetti cartoon is rather abstruse. We have a large CFMEU guy holding a halo over Bill’s head – to give him an air of virtue? Bill’s pants are on fire (liar liar), or maybe it’s the bunch of ‘how to vote’ slips burning. They would be more combustible. Did the CFMEU guy set them alight? Is Bill Shorten actually telling Longman voters that Mark Latham is praising his (Bill’s) honesty? That would be a lie, but even if it were true, would Bill want to advertise it? Does anyone in Longman care what Latham says?

    Seems to be just more Shorten bad, unions bad, Labor bad. Zanetti probably could ‘t think of anything either astute or funny before the deadline.

  14. The tone is spot on, although deploy more use of capitals. 😆

  16. The Guardian has been publishing series of articles by people battling on social security. Most of them provide deep insights into living poor in Australia.

    One or two have been absurd. One person complained about struggling while keeping her horses and her car, for example. The cost of maintaining a car and of keeping two horses would have meant that she had only around $10 a week left for food and all the rest.

    This article is, IMO, the best one so far:
    https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/jul/12/life-on-the-breadline-despite-the-stress-i-tell-myself-the-best-things-in-life-are-free

    Two things strike me about the series. The first is external: shit happens and sometimes it is very bad shit indeed. People are thrown onto the human scrap heap by forces totally beyond their control.

    The other thing is that in our family it was drummed into us to be ready for a rainy day. Save. Save. Save. Borrow to invest. Don’t borrow to travel. Don’t think you can always depend on the government. Be ready to help each other. This came from parents who had survived two wars, been political and economic refugees, who had survived an utterly impoverished Depression (my father’s adult disposable income as a young man was five cents a week), and who had both survived shaves with real starvation. Mum hoarded food that was ten years past its use by date. So they passed along the wisdom of their lived experience. We did without all sorts of stuff as kids and are all good at managing our expectations.

    We have had 32 quarters of growth. I wonder how financially and psychologically well-prepared any of our under 35s are for adversity? It is not as if resilience training has been top of the pops.

  17. A fantastic critique of that Jonathan Chait article that came out the other day demonstrating the myriad links between Trump and Putin/Russia. Tom Nicholls is an expert in Russian affairs with over 30 years experience.

    In plowing through this history, three things should be kept in mind. First, the amount of contact Chait illustrates between Trump world and the Russians is simply staggering. Even by the standards of international business, this is an astonishing amount of interaction that involves not just Trump’s financial interests, but vertically deep ties that extend down into his family.

    Second, too many Americans do not understand that Russia’s oligarchs, millionaires, business leaders, state officials and intelligence operatives are all part of the same ecosystem. It is not possible to shake hands with just one arm of this octopus without being enveloped by the others. If Trump was in deep with the Russian criminal and financial worlds, the Russian intelligence services knew it, and so did Russia’s top spook, Putin. Trump must know this as well.

    Third, Chait’s readers should not be looking for silver bullets that either doom or exonerate Trump. Rather, they should follow the argument about a pattern of interaction that would raise the suspicions of even the most amateur intelligence analyst.

  25. While I love the cartoons – especially Rowe – I find the cartoons lose something at times when out of context with the story they accompany (if they accompany one)

    Zanetti … well … rarely has any humour

  26. “Jason Wilson writes that Leyonhjelm threw out a dogwhistle to the men’s rights movement, and it appears to have been answered.”

    The Clementine Ford article in the dawn patrol has a linked story of 200,000 Aussie men signing up to a mens rights facebook page that was later taken down due to its feral content against women.

    200,000 is a lot of voters.

  27. Don’t you just love it when the likes of the ACCC and APRA tell you that the problems are now all fixed and all is well in the world – because Commerce and Industry have addressed their problems

    Simply, the ACCC and APRA have always been and continue to be limp organisations under a government which espouses that the most effective form of regulation is self regulation

    And consumers pay

    As we see with the Hayne RC and now the pricing regime of our privatised energy Companies

    Why have the circumstances now finally coming to the attention of the community but why only now?

    This government made every attempt to protect the banks from scrutiny of (some of only) their practices and it is only polling on the impact of increases in utility prices that has the ACCC addressing only some of the problems in those industries (with the self preservation cheer squad Mr HIH clapping loudly)

    Why are Import facilities being built for gas?

    And why only mention of retention NOT price?

    Supply is an issue

    Pricing is THE issue

    But never any mention of price – or reimbursements to the community of gouging

    All is fixed

    And life goes on

    Or so Mr HIH would have us believe

  28. Lizzie@9:01am and BW@9:09am
    Trump is systematically gutting US allies. Thanks to US we did not spend much on defence till now. Now I think Australia may have to ramp up its defence spending to the detriment of other spending. Hence, our spending should be targeted unlike Submarine spending. Like the cartoon yesterday Trump is pissing into the tent/ building.

    In my view Rowe is by far and away the best of our political cartoonists. And I have BK’s Dawn Patrol to thank for introducing me to them. I’d never known about his work prior to BK’s morning round up.

    ‘200,000 is a lot of voters.’

    Not really.

    There were over 14, 262, 016 voters at the last election – so the 200,000 are eliminated simply by rounding down!

    And for these voters to be of any use to Senator L, they would have to be concentrated in the state he’s standing for.
