The Australian reports the latest Newspoll has Labor leading 53-47, in from 54-46 three weeks ago. The primary votes are Coalition 37% (up two), Labor 38% (steady), Greens 11% (steady) and One Nation 2% (down one). Scott Morrison is down two on approval to 44% and up two on disapproval to 52%, while Anthony Albanese is respectively steady on 37% and up two to 48%. Morrison’s lead as preferred prime minister has been cut from 48-34 to 46-38. The poll was conducted Wednesday to Saturday from a sample of 1524.

Counter-terrorism police have arrested three men after a taxi explosion outside Liverpool Women’s Hospital left a passenger dead and the driver injured.
The vehicle exploded outside the hospital at 11am on Sunday morning, killing the passenger and injuring the driver. Witnesses reported hearing a loud bang before seeing a taxi on fire in the car park.
Flames engulfed the car at 10.59am as the country was preparing to fall silent for Remembrance Sunday commemorations.
The Liverpool Women’s Hospital is just a mile from Liverpool Cathedral where military personnel, veterans were joining civic dignitaries from across the city for a service.
Three men – aged 29, 26, and 21 – were detained in the Kensington area of the city and arrested under the Terrorism Act, in connection with the incident.

Lib/nats lost 14 seats in 2016 when the combined primary vote fell from 45.5% (2013)- 42.0%(2016)
Lib/nats picked up 1 seat in 2019 when the combined primary vote level 42% (2016)- 42%(2019)
—————————————–
Lib/nats are heading for lost of over 18 seats if the combined primary vote is lower than 40%
Lib/nats to remain in majority government needs the combined primary vote over 42%
Labor target primary vote to be in government 36% , If Labor primary vote can get over 37% it will be a reasonable size majority government

If you want to make the election on the vaccine rollout – none of the promises were kept
The promise was upto 90% of Australian were to be fully vaccinated in October 2020 – the promise been broken
Should lose the election on that
If these figures continue, Morrison won’t be the PM at the next election.
As for the meme that apathy towards both majors leads to the incumbent winning, au contraire.
I remember the 1996 election, which Howard won. The on the street comments were to the effect that there was no difference between the major parties, so there was no harm in changing which one was in power.
The last time the lib/nats were retain in government with a primary vote less than 40% was the first term of the Howard government , thanks to a big majority from 1996
Where the Lib/nats could afford to lose 14 or more seats and retain majority government
in 2022
The current lib/nats lose 1 seat , it will be a minority

How bad do the Liberals have to get before their vote tanks?
I just realised a couple of things as I was making the bed this morning, and thinking about Scott Morrison’s boast yesterday about White Privilege MP, Alan Tudge’s deep connection with his Indian-Australian community, plus looking at that photo of Morrison and his Aryanesque and Privileged White MP, Katie Allen, making the Italian food gnocchi, that, firstly, Morrison may boast about his and his, mostly privileged White MPs, connections to this migrant community or that, but look behind that veil of deceit and see who are the people in positions of power in the Administrative wing of his party. Who is the National President of the Liberal Party? Well, what do you know, it’s a Privileged White guy, John Olsen.
And who is the National President of the Labor Party? That would be Fijian Indian Australian lady, Michelle Rowland.
So, who is it that has really deep engagement with migrant communities, and trusts them to run their party as well? Certainly not Scott Morrison’s Liberals, that’s for sure. No matter how much cultural appropriation they engage in.
Secondly, with all these photo ops of Morrison and food from other nations, you realise why Donald Trump lauded Scott Morrison. He knew that Scott Morrison got it. Scott Morrison gets the Reality Televisualisation of politics.
I think, and I hope, Labor has gotten that message and fights him on his turf effectively this time.
An odd poll in the AFR, mostly on EVs, but..

Nearly two-thirds of The Australian Financial Review readers say they would consider buying an electric car as their next vehicle and want the Morrison government to impose emission standards on new cars.
The latest reader poll shows strong support for electric vehicles in a week when the prime minister completed a U-turn on his position at the last election.
Of the 497 respondents, 32 per cent said they were “very likely” to buy an electric car and another 31 per cent said they would “possibly” purchase one.
On emission standards, 75 per cent agreed the federal government should follow the example of European, Japanese and American regulators and impose standards on new cars; 21 per cent were opposed.
However, readers were split on the outcome of the next election, with 34 per cent tipping a Coalition win, 22 per cent siding with Labor and 29 per cent picking a hung parliament.
One reader said: “The regrettable performance of the Morrison government in defining real and credible policy initiatives across the board combined with the lacklustre alternative, almost certainly guarantees a hung parliament at the next election.“

Here we are in mid-November, and as was predicted by just about everyone apart from tribal Coalition shills, Australia’s vax rate is far from complete. Had the vaccine rollout been done properly, we’d have over 90% of the population fully vaccinated by now.
Instead we’re just over 80% with key states such as WA and Qld lagging well behind because of vaccines needing to be diverted to deal with unnecessary outbreaks in NSW and Vic. And on top of that, Aboriginal communities are experiencing disproportionate spread of COVID because of a failure of the federal govt to ensure adequate vaccine distribution.
So the Liberal Party thinks it can win Paterson and Shortland off Labor in the federal election? When they are using them as a dumping ground for toxic waste from the seats of the privileged few?

In the unwanted event of the re-election of Scomo – and possibly in the event of an overly timid ALP government – hopefully the EU and other more responsible entities will punish Australia through crippling carbon tariffs.

‘So who were the bad COPs in Glasgow? There is one that consistently stood out. Australia.
Perhaps nothing was more symbolic of Australia’s lack of commitment to the goals of the Glasgow COP than the pride of place at the Australian pavilion given to Santos, one of our largest gas and oil companies.
Multiple assessments of Australia’s commitment and actions to reduce dangerous climate change have ranked us at the bottom of the international pack.
The “Australian Way” plan to get to net zero by 2050 is a hotchpotch of creative accounting, claiming credit for emission reduction actions of the states and territories and the previous Labor government, spruiking technology that doesn’t work, and magical thinking about technology that hasn’t been invented yet.’

1. No, I would like to see a rational discussion around China that you seem to be unable manage.
2. No, but apparently my sarcasm went straight over your head.
3. Your constant projections suggest you think you do.
4. Such a depth of analysis. If you were a Liberal, you’d publish it as modelling.
=================================
1. The fact remains that you have never, ever, made a single negative comment in any way shape or form about the behaviour of the comrades or of Xi. On the other hand you frequently make comments that ‘explain’ their behaviour. Remarkable discipline, eh comrade?
2. The fact remains that you have claimed that I thought I knew what was in Xi’s brain. I have never made that claim. In fact, I have demonstrated that Xi is unpredictable.
3. I have never claimed to know what is in Xi’s brain. You repeatedly claim that I do claim to know what is in Xi’s brain.
4. Personal abuse. You studiously avoid the one issue of substance in this thread: We can judge Xi by what he does. In this instance, Xi promised not to militarize the South China Sea land grabs. Xi subsequently militarized them.

As far as Carbon Tariffs are concerned, we should not forget that Matthias Cormann has stated that, from his position as the Secretary General of the OECD, he will use what influence he has to fight the imposition of Carbon Tariffs on Australia. I await with interest to see how that fight plays out.

If you want the serious climate destroying villains:
The key moment in the COP was the intervention of India that killed off the coal phase out.
Xi and Putin essentially scuppered COP26 by not turning up and by mumbling about zero net 2060 and zero net 2070. Neither put a figure on 2030.
Nobody blinked an eyelid when major forest destroying hypocrites Indonesia and Brazil signed the deforestation ‘pledge’.
The wealthiest countries are simply not coming up with the wealth transfers to make the climate fight a global fight.
Johnson was so embroiled in sleaze, his own incompetence, and in fucking up Brexit that the host country simply did not do the diplomatic hard grind ground work in the years running up to the COP

Since a lot of bloggers here other than Larse are talking doom and gloom of LNP especially Scott, I will point to certain numbers in LNP favour from 2 latest polls.
1. LNP PV went up in Morgan and Newspoll
2. ALP numbers remain steady both in Morgan and Newsooll
3. LNP improved on 2PP in both above polls. So they are trending in the right direction.
4. The media especially Murdoch rags haven’t given up on Morrison.
The only things not trending in right are Morrison personal numbers. I don’t know whether they amount to anything in the final picture because nobody will challenge Morrison for Liberal leadership.

WA vax’s doubled in a day on 09 Apr 21. What happened there? A correction to earlier input?
There does seem a steeper rise in vaccinations in late August that then seems to plateau (and now dropping slightly).
None of that changes the fact that the lockdowns would have been far shorter (and less hospitalisations and deaths) if the base level of vaccinations at the time of the breakout were higher. I find it hard to find anyone else to blame for that other than the feds.

Who will read AFR? It is well heeled or people who work in Financial institutions. So
1. It is not a surprise about 2/3 want to buy EV.
2. They do not represent real cross section of Australian population.
3. What is a bit surprising is that 22% are siding with ALP (as I mentioned in few earlier posts ALP needs these kind of votes to get over the line).
4. All these numbers after AFR relentlessly campaigned for LNP.
