Goodness me. Newspoll has Labor at 54% TPP over the Coalition. That's quite a welcome corrective to the gushing coverage over the new Fairfax poll saying Abbott has become vastly more popular, and giving a "only just ahead" TPP of 51% to Labor.
The best thing about the poll is the drop in the primary vote for the Coalition: down from 45.6 at the election to 38% now. Labor's primary is also showing a bit of a jump from the figure its been stuck on for some time (up to 36 from 34%.)
Other welcome poll news this week: the unpopularity of the Coalition's deregulation of Uni fees. As I expected, this seems to be unpopular widely, probably because not just uni students don't like the idea, but nor do their parents.
I would be interested in seeing what Kevin Bonham says but at present the Ipsis poll looks like an outlier.
