Essential Research: 52-48 to Labor

More evidence of a narrowing trend federally from Essential Research, albeit based on small shifts in the primary vote.

The Guardian reports the first result from Essential Research in three weeks has Labor’s two-party lead at 52-48, down from 53-47 last time. The changes on the primary vote are slight, with the Coalition up a point to 38% and Labor steady on 36% (CORRECTION: the Coalition is steady, and Labor down two). The Guardian report notes that Essential has changed the provider of the online panel from which its respondents are drawn from YourSource to Qualtrics, without changing the underlying methodology. Perhaps relatedly, the sample size is identified as 1652, where in the past it has been a little over 1000. The Guardian provides no further findings from attitudinal questions – we’ll see if the release of the main report later today provides anything on that front, along with the minor party primary votes.

UPDATE: Full report here. No change for the minor parties, with the Greens on 10% and One Nation on 7%. The poll was conducted between January 23 and January 31 – I’m not sure if this was a contingency for the long weekend, but in the past Essential’s field work dates have been Thursday to Sunday. Other findings:

• When presented with a number of explanations for a lack of gender parity in politics, the most favoured responses relate to the failures of political parties, and the least favoured relates to “experience and skills”. Gender quotas for parties have 46% support and 40% opposition, with age interestingly more determinative of attitudes here than gender.

• There are a number of questions on Australia Day, the most useful of which is a finding that 52% support a separate national day to recognise indigenous Australians, including 15% who want that day to replace Australia Day, with 40% opposed.

• Respondents were presented with various groups and asked who they felt they would prefer to see win the election. The most interesting findings are that the media was perceived as favouring the Coalition by 32% and 25%; that despite all the recent talk, pensioners were perceived to favour Labor by a margin of 42% to 28%; and that families with young children were perceived as favouring Labor by 50% to 21%.

UPDATE 2: It turns out that both the longer field work period and the larger sample were a one-off, to it will be back to Thursday to Sunday and samples of a bit over 1000 in future polls.

  2. BiGD,
    This is a very sad story about the misinformation and active proselytising of fake views to vulnerable parents of young children:

    The Pacific Northwest is home to some of the nation’s most vocal and organized anti-vaccination activists. That movement has helped drive down child immunizations in Washington, as well as in neighboring Oregon and Idaho, to some of the lowest rates in the country, with as many as 10.5 percent of kindergartners statewide in Idaho unvaccinated for measles. That is almost double the median rate nationally.

    Libertarian-leaning lawmakers, meanwhile, have bowed to public pressure to relax state laws to exempt virtually any child from state vaccination requirements whose parents object. Three states allow only medical exemptions; most others also permit religious exemptions. And 17, including Washington, Oregon and Idaho, allow what they call “philosophical” exemptions, meaning virtually anyone can opt out of the requirements.

    All those elements combine into a dangerous mix, spurring concern about the resurgence of a deadly disease that once sent tens of thousands of Americans to hospitals each year and killed an estimated 400 to 500 people, many of them young children.

    This is why I dislike Libertarianism.

    To me it’s such a selfish philosophy that wants the all benefits the Society has to give, but doesn’t want to fully commit to it.

    I see it as a bit like many/most/all religions.

    I know this is going to sound icky, but, can I just say from personal experience that if a big bear of a man comes in close and wraps their arms around you for a long, lingering hug, that they come into very close contact with your breasts for an extended period. They can feel them too.

    I say this because my youngest son, who is very warm and loving, came to give me a hug once when he saw that I was upset about something. He wanted it to be a big hug but about 10 seconds in we both just jumped back and went, ‘Eww!’ We had both realised that it was too close for comfort.

    So, for Scott Buchholz to do that to a young woman that he didn’t even know would obviously be cause for concern to that person.

    Surely it’s also being aware of the signs from the other person.

    If they’re not hugging you anymore then they probably don’t want you hugging them anymore.

    The murdoch media shows its usual ‘true colours’ in the piece linked up thread, viz –

    COLOURFUL federal Assistant Roads Minister Scott Buchholz propelled a “Cranberries-type hug” on an Australian Defence Force officer, who complained

    IMO it amounts to trivialising it all in defence of a tory, in election year when the tories are looking like getting a thrashing.

    Its not far from a STFU to women either.

    Plus the so called ‘article’ fails to link any of this with the ‘conduct’ of a number of other tories in relating to women.

  9. The AFR explains how NAB has been the worst performing big four bank for a good reason. It has had a succession of chief executives who have failed to deliver what was promised.

    Worst performing ? Hmmm. Doesn’t that mean making the least loot? So it just means NAB wasn’t as good at gouging,ripping off,over servicing and charging fees for no service as the other three Robber Banks.

  17. Extract of a Twitter thread by Quaedvlieg, concerning Phelps.

    Roman Quaedvlieg
    ‏ 21m21 minutes ago

    17. On the substantive issues: community security is not a major issue. The Phelps model does not dictate the transferees have to be resident in the Australian community between treatment sessions – this seems a straw man proposition.

    18. The refugees are not an unknown quantity insofar as security and character checks; they’ve been known for many years and vetted by either Australia, Nauru or the US (or all three).

    19. It’s for this reason the govt is panicky about the so-called Ministerial over-ride power if there is a national security threat – it knows less than a handful of the refugees are of such a threat & it can’t stop medical transfers.

    20. It is highly unlikely that doctors could or would move to transfer 1000 refugees immediately to Australia; even if they did, more than sufficient detention dormant capacity exists while assessments take place.

  18. Part of a turf war between the Liberal and National factions in Queensland?

    From the ‘overhugging’ article:

    Mr Buccholz sits with the Liberal Party in Canberra. The alleged leaker is a Nationals MP.

    QLD’ers have voted in Labor Governments for much of the last 30 years. Most voters would still remember Joh…

    Queensland has voted in labor for MOST of its history – since Labor was founded. It has the distinction of being the ONLY place where a Communist was elected – twice.

    Since 1899 Qld has elected labor for 56 years. The exception was the long post war reign of Joh which was due to a gerrymander not to the way Qld voted and of course the impact of the DLP split.

  25. “That may be your cultural position, but there are cultures where it is a natural form of greeting.”

    Fair enough. Different cultures and different people have different approaches to personal space. I’m not a hugger or toucher in any case but even if I were, in Australia, not hugging strangers would seem to be a sensible default.

  26. Don’t hug people at work. That can go for kissing, exposing yourself, talking about sex or being lewd as well.

    Our biggest cause of outages is the power being turned off for works!

    One thing that is causing cost blow outs are outsourcing PLUS absurd OHS regulations. Now when they came to change my gold plated poles (twice) there were at times up to 10 vehicles (for one pole). This included paying for traffic control people. Now I live in a dead end street and beyond me are just 10 residences two of which have alternative private access. The risk of a traffic accident when changing a pole is considerably LESS that the daily risk of driving. No one bothered to do a two minute risk assessment to consider that a simple barrier and the apprentice keeping lookout would more than do the job while ensuring safety. Whatever the reason it seems that 10 or more vehicles was a massive overkill. I suspect separation of functions too -some guys digging, others concreting etc, probably added to the whole cost and brouhaha.

  31. Please ALPers, stop fanning this one. I really think it possible that the LNP are carving a safer spot for Dutton – or at least it is possible. I may well be wrong, but I would rather not take the risk.

    Inaccurate speculation. All Sitting Members of Parliament have been automatically re-endorsed by order of Scott Morrison. So Buchholz is safe. Unless Morrison taps him on the shoulder.

    James OBrien talk back host in the UK, who does a great job of telling the brexiteers the harsh reality, but I have really enjoyed listening to so many segments now!

    O’Brien is almost the only person in the media these days that I’m aware of, who systemically and doggedly presses callers/ politicians to explain the reasons behind statements/ accusations.

    He dismantles the tactics we see in our our so called MSM most days of projection, look over there, refusal to answer questions directly, truthfully or at all. He won’t let statements ‘go through to the keeper’ without challenge.

    The original ABC “This Day Tonight” directed by Gerald Stone back in the 1970’s with reporters like Red Kerry, Paul Lynham and many others were of similar ilk however the current ABC wouldn’t go near such an approach UNLESS it was directed at Labor.

    Surprisingly we occasionally see glimpses of the ‘old’ approach from the likes of Kochie with Frydenberg a couple of days ago or even more unlikely one of the Stefanovic’s or Lisa Wilkinson.

  34. A Coalition bid to unclog the pesticides authority’s workload will put public confidence in the agency at risk by opening its regulatory work to private operators, the main public sector union has said.

    The federal government says its proposed changes to the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority would speed approvals for agvet products, which have long faced delays, and slowed after the agency’s forced move from Canberra to Armidale triggered an exodus of staff.

    Community and Public Sector Union assistant national secretary Michael Tull told a Senate committee considering the changes that opening product assessments to private operators could expose the pesticides and vet medicines regulatory regime to conflicts of interest.

    Mr Tull said only independent, public sector regulation by the pesticides authority could deal with these risks.

    The claim

    After a bruising 2018 full of allegations of gender inequity, the Government has sought to recast its image among women, tasking several Liberal women with countering the narrative that the party is anti-woman.

    Speaking to The Australian, Sarah Henderson said the Coalition’s record on delivering for women “far exceeded” Labor’s, while Senator Linda Reynolds wrote in an opinion piece for the same paper that Labor women were allowing themselves to be “used” by “a party whose culture has not yet evolved from the culture of another era”.

    The verdict

    Yes, Ms Plibersek’s claim checks out, but there’s more to it.

    There are more than twice the number of Labor women in Parliament than there are Liberal women, in both raw numbers (44 vs 19) and proportional terms (46.3 per cent vs 22.9 per cent).

    But calculating the frontbench is more complicated.

    Firstly, the Government’s frontbench contains members from both the Liberals and Nationals (and the Liberals do not control who the Nationals select).

    This is a must miss item – unless one enjoys those little maze puzzles

    Where the start and end are a clever analog for the foo bird* dropping its load on unsuspecting missionaries (the unwary public).

    Q: Have you put the kettle on yet Cynthia.

    Now back to the article in question.
    With just a tad of clever manipulation 46.3 per cent vs 22.9 per cent –
    whereby one subtracts the number first thought of – performs one a them divide into one thingies and takes into account the right handedness of the participants – the result is

    In ancient times there was a community known as the Goodnu’s. As all communities did in these times the Goodnu’s lived right on the river bank for trading, transportation and sustenance. Water was almighty and worshipped as a God. One day there was a tremendous hurricane far out in the ocean. It’s ferocity blew a large flock of “Foo” birds way off course sending them inland many hundreds of miles and in the vicinity of the Goodnu’s community. The Goodnu people had never seen a “Foo” bird and were quite curious as to it’s sudden and obviously evil presence. The “Foo” bird, as we all know, is a very ugly, evil-looking bird. This caused the Goodnu people to become very uneasy believing they did something wrong to God and that this bird should be avoided. One day a “Foo” bird flew overhead and screeched: “Foo, Foo” and shit on a Goodnu’s head. The man ran screaming into the river believing the Holy powers of the river would cleanse him of this evil turd and its consequences. As soon as the man washed this unholy turd from his ear canal he suddenly keeled over and died. The Goodnu’s were now convinced of the “Foo” bird’s evilness. The next day a woman was outside and heard: “Foo, Foo”. Before she could react the “Foo” bird dropped a bomb landing a syrupy turd across her face. Shocked and panicked she ran into the river furiously washing her face of this sloppy stew. The village watched in horror as this woman also died once cleansed of the runny turd. The very next day a village wiseman heard those famous words: “Foo, Foo”. He like others had witnessed the terrible deaths of two of his villages’ people in the last two days. He too was struck right in the forehead by the “Foo” birds accurately guided turd missile. His first reaction was confusion and he sprinted towards the river. However, he stopped short and thought of his obvious demise should he cleanse the turd wafer from his forehead. He did not cleanse the poo pile from his forehead and lived. So the wiseman went to the other people of the village, gathered them around and stated to them: “There is an obvious lesson here my good people. The moral of this story is: ‘If the Foo shits, wear it.'”.

    https://www.schoolstrike4climate.com/blog/students-kick-off-friday-school-strikes-at-shorten-s-office-ahead-of-global-climatestrike

    Melbourne, 8th February: School students from Central Victoria, who started the Australian school strike movement, will strike outside Bill Shorten’s office today (Friday), calling on Federal Labor to commit to #StopAdani by the Federal Election.

    The students plan to strike from school every Friday ahead of the March 15 Global #ClimateStrike which will see school students in 40 countries join with adult supporters to walk out of school and work for the day to demand urgent climate action from their political leaders.

    “Climate change is here and it’s hurting people now. Coal is the number one cause of climate change. We’re scared of living in a world with harsher and more unstable weather. If politicians care about us and our future, their climate policy must include a plan to #StopAdani and move Australia beyond coal.” said Milou Albrecht, 14 years old, from Castlemaine.

    “A Federal Election is coming up and neither of the major parties have a plan to stop the climate emergency which starts with stopping coal projects like Adani.

    “As young people, we’re not old enough to vote yet. I’m only 14. So instead we are striking from school to tell our politicians to take the climate crisis seriously. On March 15, tens of thousands of us will strike with our families and communities to show our politicians that we are going to do what it takes to make climate change the most important issue on the agenda.

    “Bill Shorten, Scott Morrison and their parties can either listen to us and deal with the climate crisis by stopping Adani, keeping fossil fuels in the ground and powering Australia with 100% renewable energy or they can ignore us and deal with the growing community outrage that we will direct at them until they do,” said Harriet O’Shea Carre, 14 years old from Castlemaine.
