Latest Roy Morgan poll 2pp
ALP leads both the L-NP Coalition and One Nation on a two-party preferred basis โ for the first time the result between ALP and One Nation is closer than between ALP and L-NP Coalition
On a two-party preferred basis (based on how electors said theyโd โvoteโ their preferences) ALP 55.5% (up 2.5%) is ahead of L-NP 44.5% (down 2.5%). When preferences are allocated based on how Australians voted at the 2025 Federal Election, ALP 53.5% (up 1.5%) leads L-NP 46.5% (down 1.5%).
In many electorates at the Election the contest is set to be between the ALP and One Nation. When preferences are allocated for Coalition, Greens, Independent, and Other Party supporters between the ALP and One Nation the Morgan Poll estimates the ALP 53.5% leading One Nation 46.5% - the same as a week ago.
Precisely.
Nat Barr's response, extraordinary. Pauline Hanson not in parliament nearly 90 per cent of time on estimates-hearing days.
Barnaby: "She's very busy, as leader of party, and gets lots of invitations."
Nat Barr: "Well that's the answer to that, then." #WTAF??

@QuentinDempster LNP foisting him on Shortland, it's always been a Labor seat with an increasingly uni educated demographic + community-minded area that values environment. Couldn't see Abbott living in Swansea, Belmont, Budge or Catho. Yasmin is popular locally as State MP, Pat is local, too.
Hi #couchpeloton if you are out there and watching #Giro2026! #Tourdog Alf the Cav and I are finallybwatching some @giroditalia tonight. Bit of a pancake stage, but loving seeing Italy again after my trip there last July, plus for Le Tour. #sbscycling@sbssp
Given that we built 175k houses last year, had about 300k immigrants, with an average of 2.5 people per house in Australia doesn't that mean we don't need to cut migration by Angus Taylor's criteria? Or is he suggesting all migrants live alone?

Angus Taylor is having a "John Hewson with the cost of GST on a birthday cake" moment on #abc730. His answer to everything is "it depends" ๐คฃ
Fantastic. Great move. Well done Angus ๐
