YouGov: Labor 29, One Nation 26, Coalition 21 (open thread)

YouGov’s fortnightly poll widens the gap between One Nation and the Coalition, against the recent trend.

The fortnightly YouGov News24 Pulse poll has Labor up a point to 29%, One Nation up two to 26%, the Coalition down one to 21%, the Greens steady on 12%. Respondent-allocated two-party measures have Labor’s lead over One Nation unchanged at 56-44, and out from 52-48 to 53-47 against the Coalition. Anthony Albanese is down one on approval to 35% and up two on disapproval to 59%, while Angus Taylor is down two to 33% and up three to 49%. Albanese holds preferred prime minister leads of 44-37 over Angus Taylor, out from 42-38, and 52-37 over Pauline Hanson, out from 51-38.

The poll was conducted last Tuesday to this Monday from a sample of 1510; extensive breakdowns on voting intention are available in the accompanying report. We are also about due for the monthly Essential Research poll – if so, that’s likely to be live by the time you read this, either through The Guardian or the pollster’s website. (UPDATE: Apparently not.)

  1. ALP is finished. Albanese is finished. Albanese should dissolve the parliament and call parliamentary elections now and hand over the lodge keys to Pauline Hanson.

    The next election is over a year and a half away.

  2. You think with how people feel in Australia One Nation would be higher honestly this is the most stagnant I see in a poll. Also hard being green I could see you’re freaking out over noise

    One of the worst parts of One Nation getting any power in Victoria would be that they’ll abolish Treaty
    ========================================

    The LNP plan to do that anyway.

    I am calling on behalf of Hanson and Joyce to dissolve the parliament and call elections now.

    Incidentally, I think it was petty of Carroll to deny Andrews a bust.’

    I heard it would cost around $137k, which is chicken feed in the scheme of things.
