Anthony Albanese could be on track to being a one-term Prime Minister,
with a new poll showing Labor's primary vote crashing in three major states.

The federal government is in serious trouble in the eastern states - where most of the seats are - with Labor down to 24 per cent in Queensland, 28 in Victoria and 32 in NSW.

On a two-party-preferred basis, Labor is being trounced 57-43 by the Coalition in Queensland, it's behind 52-48 in Victoria and in NSW it's tied 50-50 - all of which is good news for Opposition leader Peter Dutton.

There is one major reason the government is stuck in a rut with an election due within eight months - cost of living pressures.

The online poll for News Ltd, which canvassed the views of 10,239 voters, followed the latest quarterly national accounts figures, which showed households cutting back their spending as they deal with inflation and high interest rates.

People taking part in the survey left comments which made it clear they were struggling.

'The price of things like food and fuel just keeps going up and up,' one said.

Another added: 'It's getting tough to make ends meet. Rates are staying high, but wages aren't rising.'

Nationally, the poll found that Labor's primary vote is just 29 per cent, while the Coalition is on 36 per cent.


Preference flow from Greens voters and others means Labor still leads the Coalition by 51 to 49 on a two party preferred basis - which could lead to one side or the other forming a minority government, rather than winning outright.

Pollster Yaron Finkelstein said voters wanted Mr Albanese and his colleagues to focus on the cost of living, housing and the economy.

'Labor scraped into office in 2022 on a historically low primary vote, so they can't afford to go backwards like this,' he told News Ltd.

I hope this article is correct and Albo gets kicked out -

he has ruined Australia.

I think he “may” be able to survive and form a minority government with the greens in control.

Basically even worse than what we had under Rudd/ Gillard/Rudd/Bob brown

Well - he sank the ship with his Voice nonsense... pure violation of the democratic way and one that only a true Neo-Nazi Stalinist could entertain... then the holes kept being shot in the hull by the states taking over and pushing the little bits of the voice one at a time without the permission of the voting public -  and nobody truly believes that's just the Labor states when they are all in collusion on their Manifesto and Agenda.

I doubt any of them will survive... despite John Smith's ages-old comment that the Australian voter is never likely to vote in one party at both Federal and State level.... this one could be the watershed for Labor I predicted it would be .... same as I predicted the Abbott circus would be a watershed.

As long as Australian politics and government and their understanding of their rights and their DUTIES all get a boost into reality.  They are NOT petty dictators, neo-Feudal lords and ladies entitled to do as they choose and hand out the goodies to those they choose, like that 'governor-general' spot etc to another old mate - they are our servants and we will prevail.

All in all, it's going to be an interesting twelve months..... and time to launch our own party to properly oppose the entrenched looters and grifters.

One of the few good things he's done is to not scrap the AUKUS agreement. I was really concerned that he would kill it, given Labor's hatred of anything that even mentions the word nuclear.

The lunatic Greens should never again be allowed to share power with the government of the day. They belong on the deep outer fringes of politics where people can laugh at their absurd policies without worrying they'll have any impact on the country.

AUKUS is great if you want to pay 9 times the correct price for the subs.   ::)

The two worst Prime Ministers that I've seen in my lifetime are both from the ALP. They are Kevin Rudd and Julia Gillard. I didn't care much for the decision by Tony Abbott to reinstate Knighthoods - that was a bit stupid. The best PM in my lifetime was John Howard. It's no wonder he is Australia's second-longest serving PM. Some of his best policies were the GST, the new gun laws and helping East Timor to become independent from Indonesia. Australia hasn't been as prosperous at any time since he was PM and Rudd pissed away the surplus and zero debt Howard left behind.

The Howard government have had their time.  Now they are where they belong. In the rubbish bin of history, with their work choices.   :(

Hear! Hear!   8-)

... and so are the rest of them..... NONE of their policies has made one iota of real difference to real people.... look around you...

NO government in this country in memory has been worth a cracker when it comes to the real issues.... look at AlboCorp - handing out fat life earners to mates like some Far Ken feudal lord... always to old mate and stayers on the barricades of the 'great socialist revolution' that has brought Australia to its knees, and continues to ruin countless lives to satisfy whingers treading the time worn path created by the 'feminists' in their carrying on about 'disadvantage' and every other thing... and how their 'feelings' were paramount.

Currently paid more per hour worked than men... still get preference and a preferential school education system, in employment, education and promotion... 70% fat super fund public servants - 80%+ teachers on the same perks - 85% in all the best slots in the 'healthcare system', the biggest employer in Australia now with nothing else to offer apart from begging on a street corner and driving men out and still whining that they are short-changed in everything..... and telling their kids they are heroes for wanting their nuts cut off or their tits chopped - and still being the greatest killers of their own children.

Poor Fellow - My Country!  Especially when run by the mad.

Angus Campbell keeps his 'DSC' - when another ten or so officers - possibly rightly but never convicted of anything - have their merit medals removed over Afghanistan's unproven in any court 'illegal killings of civilians'.  Campbell was right up there in the push to push women into the forces, so he's a fellow traveler and thus is sacred - a woos - look at the ads you see ... sheilas jumping out of planes, abseiling cliffs, looking like they handle big hairy aircraft and such, load masters etc,  running this and that (and pushing men out of ADFA and getting all the soft job promotions and kudos - men are leaving in droves) ... da-de-da.... do you REALLY think they will hold the line for you when The Next Big One comes along?

It'll be your sons.... I'm so happy my son has been diagnosed with diabetes and is not on reserve for an Officer spot after losing out for ADFA to suit some political appointee or affirmative action dork.  Have to train my grandson - see, grandson?  That's what they do to you when you do your damnedest and run your heart out to get into SO.

Those who've done the STC - Superior To Christ - course will fly above all the mud and dust and get great medals....

Bring back Charlie Green!

I'm not even sure if Albanese will make it to the end of Labor's (hopefully) one term.

I've said this before - I'm certain Labor will lose the Federal election next year but they will probably lose it by a lot less if Albanese is replaced as leader and PM before then.

Worst PM ever in my opinion (and he's had some pretty tough competition for the title over the past few decades).

As an aside - it just shows you how bad (and boring) Australian politics is these days when everyone seems to be much more interested in US politics - on an Australian political forum.

Albo is totally out of his depth -
he just avoids the real issues and concentrates on the Voice etc -
where he wasted $450 million on a ridiculous referendum which he lost.

Then he has supported AUKUS where will will spend 9 times
the correct price for nuke subs - if we ever get any -
we are already over $1.2 trillion in debt and
We'll get only 8 subs for $368 billion -
something his Labor supporters will ban you for mentioning:

What rot. Howard ONLY got a surplus because of the policies put in place by Keating. We were already well on the way to a surplus, all Howard did was speed it up a little by selling off all our best assets. Something we are still paying for today. He screwed up the roll out of the GST when he built in a budget deficit that every party has since struggled to do away with.  Both Rudd and Gillard were good pm's , they just weren't on the side of murdoch so they were lambasted at every opportunity and you fell for it. We should have had a carbon tax but the libs mining mates couldn't have that. Every major economist, including Howard, have said that a mining tax was the way to go. Instead we have since paid billions for people to change light bulbs and plant trees, and other stupid ideas to try and reduce greenhouse gases.  We should have also had fibre to the home, it would have lasted us 50 years at least. Instead we got a crappy hob nobbled inferior system that cost us more and is already redundant in many parts of the country. Yes, Howard did well with the gun laws. But he also embedded into politics an us v's them culture, using patriotism to disguise his racism.

John Howard's own party called him the Lying Rodent. If not for Abbott Howard would have remained the worst PM we ever had. Rudd was ordinary.

Gillard was probably the best PM we had in 4 or 5 decades.


Quote:

Howards tax cuts were only sustainable in the best economy the world had seen in a century. The GFC killed that and left Australia vulnerable to the unbalanced economic structure left by Howard. Howard had given away the money needed to pay the bills, he had re geared the economy to require unsustainable economic levels to just break even. Howard and Costello got out the back door just in time, just before what they left hit the fan.

Think that relates to Trump likely being runner up for the world's worst leader in at least a century.

A poor result in the US election could feasibly have a greater impact on Australia than our election.

Neither of our options are crazy authoritarian nutters. We have to choose between very average and Mr Potato head who seems a bit worse. I don't think you could sell either as a good option.

In Australia it is choosing between continuing average or going below average.

You're showing your age. Rudd and Gillard fought each other, but over the whole Rudd/Gillard/Rudd era there was a lot of good legislation. They also had to contend with cross-benchers, which your paper hero Howard did not.

What's you opinion on the most centrist and practical PM, Malcolm Turnbull? Or is he recent for your reading glasses?

Whitlam created Medibank (later resuscitated as Medicare) and that alone is a greater achievement than any other government. He also made tertiary education free, an idea which lives on in loans.

Not even liberatarians weirdos are calling for the abolition of Medicare. It's hugely popular

It’s interesting to see that under a labor government free healthcare has now failed.

Bulk billing is now firmly a thing of the past.

Not that is all bad, by forcing people who can’t afford a gp visit into hospital emergency departments our younger doctors get to “practice “ medicine on them and they can learn from their mistakes.

I know nothing of Whitlam other than he was sacked?

The problem is Dutton will be even less able to deal with
"the cost of living, housing and the economy", because the Conservatives think 'hard work' will ensure economic success.

Labor's poll numbers are falling because the current  low tax-balanced budget orthodoxy is dysfunctional.

He is Mr Average. No where near the low Levels of a Abbott, Howard or Rudd.

I suspect that The Potato would have the mortgage on a very low rating. He isn't on the money in any way. He is a huge potential failure.

I have seen this said over the years and see little merit to the claim, He was just average as a Liberal PM and there were internal factions that didn't like him but his economic performance was similar to his peers and he commenced the Vietnam withdrawal.

The Liberals hate him as they seem to hate all past leaders and seldom excuse an election defeat which was the big crime here.  McMahon lost to Whitlam but any leader they had would have also lost. He was also unfortunate enough to have been linked to Nixon.

Very average but not the worst in terms of performance.

Remember Whitlam was amazing. He achieved more in 4 years than Howard did in 12. It took all NEWS ltd had to illegitimately unseat Whitlam.

It is either "duck season" or "wabbit season". The silly woke liberal there just blows "electoral fraud" smoke into his own face.

Albo grew up
So poor ........ That if they were selling steamboats for a dollar a piece, all I could do is run around in circles and yell, "Ain't that cheap ??"

Albo grew up so poor:-

... that when the big kids at school stole his lunch money they had to come back for seconds...

... he used an Italian name so people would think he had Mafia connections ....

... he grew up splitting wood for pocket money and became so good at it that he now can split hairs with the best of them .. 

... at school he learned how to divide, and worked so hard at it he has now become an expert at dividing the nation and dividing the spoils.....

....they didn't have a telephone at home so he had to run up the road to report to the school that he was sick that day and couldn't come in ........ and then run home to get into bed .....

... he had no socks even before the internet came in... and he walked many a mile in other people's shoes........ and clothes ....

How do I know that - my childhood was the same - but I didn't grow up to be a grifter who could hold up a single piece of covering paper as the whole deal without blushing.....

Peter Dutton is a complete arsehole, any decent person would be ashamed of such an appauling record!!!

Let us now revisit our one term Albo prime minister on record history-

“ The voice “ bs , I mean referendum.
Two years and millions wasted because Albo had “a vibe “.
Immigration In highest levels ever recorded! Great work Albo in a housing crisis!
The chairman’s lounge scandal. With a nickname like Airbus he was always going be a rorts expert.


Goodbye Albo, Goodbye.

I think you will make a good ceo of the the new png league team if it happens!

As they said on Insiders today: The US election was an "ejector button" election.

I reckon the same thing is a strong possibility next year for Freebie Albanese.   :)

The federal government is in serious trouble in the eastern states - where most of the seats are - with Labor down to 24 per cent in Queensland, 28 in Victoria and 32 in NSW. On a two-party-preferred basis, Labor is being trounced 57-43 by the Coalition in Queensland, it's behind 52-48 in Victoria and in NSW it's tied 50-50 - all of which is good news for Opposition leader Peter Dutton. There is one major reason the government is stuck in a rut with an election due within eight months - cost of living pressures. The online poll for News Ltd, which canvassed the views of 10,239 voters, followed the latest quarterly national accounts figures, which showed households cutting back their spending as they deal with inflation and high interest rates. People taking part in the survey left comments which made it clear they were struggling. 'The price of things like food and fuel just keeps going up and up,' one said. Another added: 'It's getting tough to make ends meet. Rates are staying high, but wages aren't rising.' Nationally, the poll found that Labor's primary vote is just 29 per cent, while the Coalition is on 36 per cent. Preference flow from Greens voters and others means Labor still leads the Coalition by 51 to 49 on a two party preferred basis - which could lead to one side or the other forming a minority government, rather than winning outright. Pollster Yaron Finkelstein said voters wanted Mr Albanese and his colleagues to focus on the cost of living, housing and the economy.

Re the "read more" bit: Labor's catastrophic stuff-up over tax law proves they are the amateur hour:

Labor has enacted fairer changes to stage 3 tax law, and superanuation tax law; I'll bet the  "catastrophic stuff-up over tax law' is nothing more than the usual Conservative bleating about higher taxes on the wealthy. 



Quote:

'Labor scraped into office in 2022 on a historically low primary vote, so they can't afford to go backwards like this,' he told News Ltd.

Labor's downfall is its adherence to mainstream neoliberal low-tax/ low-spending dogma.

So rank and file Labor members are disappointed with Albo, apart from greedy  Conservatives like Gina and down,  for whom low wages are a design.
