Don’t read too much into one poll, Sprinty. Polls are interesting but use tiny samples, from 400 (useless) to 1–2K, better but still a lot of variance.

There's little township in NSW that always picks the winning party correctly. I've forgotten the name of it. That's where they should do the polling'

Probably some place in Eden-Monaro.

I think you might be right. That's an electorate.

Yes - I live there and it is a strange mix of people - my end are the law-abiding end.

The Coalition has soared ahead in the latest Nielsen poll. The Coalition is up three points to 44%, Labor down four to 33%, and the Greens are up one to 12%. Bill Shorten's good approval figure has vanished, down 11 points on approval to 40%, and up 10 points on dissaproval to 40%, making his satisfaction to dissatisfaction rating neutral, with 20% uncommitted. Tony Abbott's approval rating is down two to to 45%, and his disapproval up one to 47%, leaving his satisfaction to dissatisfaction rating negative, albeit statistically insignificant, so more or less neutral, with 12% uncommitted.

I can't find any PPM ratings, but the important thing is that the coalition leads 52-48 on the 2pp. Australians are waking up after a brief lull, and realising that the Coalition is making the right decision, and is the best equipped party to run our country.

A little ray of sunshine in an otherwise 'summer of discontent', matty???

have you a link to this Matty? can't find it anywhere .... not that I don't trust you but you have been known to sprout the odd bit of crap from time to time.

Sorry that I didn't post a link last night, John. I hate typing on iPhone and am not sure how to do so on there. Someone has put one up since, though.

Also, I resent that second remark.

The last poll was a rogue poll and Morgan polls aren't worth the toilet paper they print them on.

Um, Labor have been ahead in EVERY poll for four months. If a poll was a " rogue poll" it would be this one, you are certainly not Einstein. According to the conga line Neilson is always wrong, but now Neilson have the conga line ahead all of a sudden it's gospel, too funny. Grin

When all the polls have the conga line ahead then you can crow, but seeing as though that is far from the case I will take great pleasure in rubbing your snotty little noses in your own excrement if the next News poll and others have Labor still in front. AND... The best thing will be seeing as though the conga line have all prematurely ewackulated over this poll none of you can use the excuse that the polls are irrelevant, as you all have done for the past four months, suck it up girls, I expect brown faces all round. Grin

Whatever happens with the polls, the Coalition is still in government, and an election doesn't have to be called until 2017.

Yes, it's a big electorate, that stretches from the NSW/Vic border, to the NSW/ACT border.

The longer they wait until calling the next election, the more it will become obvious that the Abbott experiment is a bad government.
The longer they wait until calling the next election, the more likely it is that the Coalition will lose the next election.

You had better hope that the next election is called on time and not left until the expiration of the term. The only time a term was allowed to expire (1910), a conservative government was hammered by the Labour Party with a 13 percent swing. Let's hope history repeats. Grin
