You can’t retain government on a commitment to retaining government, which is all Albo the backroom bovver boy has ever offered.
A majority of voters for the first time expect the Coalition to win the next federal election, with Anthony Albanese sliding to the lowest approval levels since becoming Prime Minister amid a fall in support for Labor.
An exclusive Newspoll conducted for The Australian shows the Coalition kicking off the election year with Liberal leader Peter Dutton closing the gap further as preferred prime minister and the Coalition leading 51-49 on a two-party-preferred basis.
The poll reveals a significant shift in voter sentiment against Mr Albanese over the summer break.
The Coalition’s lead of 51-49 per cent on a two-party-preferred basis points to a likely minority Labor government if the results were repeated at the election.
This represents a 3.1 per cent swing against Labor since the last election result.
I put it to you that the most alarming poll for the ALP is the following one.
That looks like the electorate has stopped listening to Albo, a fatal condition for any PM.
The polling aggregate trend is relentless.
Does the LNP have the time to win the election in minority or majority terms? Oh, yeh. Fake left Crikey is apoplectic.
Voters aren’t interested in the composition of the workforce, or what proportion of the economy manufacturing makes up. They want to know when energy and grocery prices are going to fall, when the corporations that have gouged them and ripped them off will get their comeuppance, and when the economy will start delivering for them rather than for investors, executives and the rich.
There’s a boilover brewing as folks realise Albo has destroyed their lifestyles.
All by himself.
