It's happened, Newspoll just could not keep giving ridiculous totally unexplained boosts to dismal dull droning Shorty even tho Mal told them to do it.

It's probably just a twiddle to make the rigged "poll" seem a bit less unbelievable.

The Lefties' lament - How Low can Shorty go ?

Newspoll: Malcolm Turnbull’s satisfaction rating on the rise

SUPPORT for Malcolm Turnbull’s government has increased, cutting Labor’s lead from 52 to 48 per cent in two-party terms, according to the latest Newspoll.

The Australian reports that voter satisfaction has improved for the federal Coalition on the back of the debate over tougher citizenship rules.

The latest Newspoll shows the government has slightly improved its position from three weeks ago when Labor led by 53 to 47 per cent in two-party terms. But it’s now the 11th Newspoll where the Coalition has trailed Labor.

However the Coalition’s primary vote has not changed from 36 per cent despite the government’s focus on restricting skilled foreign workers. The primary vote remains six percentage points below the result in its narrow election victory last July.



Labor’s primary vote slipped from 36 to 35 per cent compared to the Newspoll three weeks ago while the Greens saw their primary vote fall from 10 to 9 per cent and Pauline Hanson’s One Nation held its primary vote at 10 per cent.

The Newspoll survey of 1686 voters was conducted after Mr Turnbull released the tougher rules for skilled foreign workers on Wednesday and the citizenship reforms on Thursday.



The government announced citizenship changes on Thursday requiring applicants to be a permanent resident for four years, up from 12 months now, face a stand-alone English test and commit to embracing Australian values.

But the government has been dogged over the past couple of weeks by divisions on housing affordability policy.

The Newspoll also coincided with a visit to Australia on the weekend by US Vice President Mike Pence, who reaffirmed the Trump administration would honour the controversial Manus Island refugee deal.

Newspoll is doing a delicate balancing act to try to keep dismal droning Shorty there and to try to remain credible with farcical fudged results.

Turnbull enjoys Newspoll satisfaction rise
Published: 11:06 pm, Sunday, 23 April 2017

The Coalition have improved their two party preferred standings by two points, 48-52.

The federal Coalition has gained an increase in support after days of debate over tougher citizenship rules, cutting Labor's lead to 52 to 48 per cent in two-party terms and improving voter satisfaction with Malcolm Turnbull.

The latest Newspoll, taken exclusively for The Australian, shows the government has slightly improved its position from three weeks ago when Labor led by 53 to 47 per cent in two-party terms.

But the Coalition's primary vote has not changed from 36 per cent despite a huge effort to attract public support for tighter rules for skilled foreign workers and a test on "Australian values" for new citizens.

The Coalition's primary vote remains six percentage points below the result in its narrow election victory last July, with Labor continuing to hold the commanding lead it established in the polls last September.

Labor's primary vote slipped from 36 to 35 per cent compared to the Newspoll three weeks ago while the Greens saw their primary vote fall from 10 to 9 per cent and Pauline Hanson's One Nation held its primary vote at 10 per cent.

The combined impact helped the government post a slight improvement in two-party terms.

In a trend that has held firm for months, 29 per cent of voters now give their first preference to candidates other than Labor and the Coalition - up from 23 per cent at the last election and 21 per cent at the 2013 election.

The Newspoll survey of 1686 voters was conducted from Thursday to Sunday, after Mr Turnbull released the tougher rules for skilled foreign workers on Wednesday and the citizenship reforms on Thursday.

The polling period also coincided with Mr Turnbull's visit to Tasmania to announce plans to expand the state's hydro-electric power scheme and his appearance with US vice president Mike Pence at a press conference on Saturday.

Yet the survey also came soon after another display of internal Coalition rancour, when former prime minister Tony Abbott called again for changes in the government's direction and then drew headlines for venting his frustration at reports that Mr Turnbull had to intervene to help him hold his seat at the last election.

While the improvement in the two-party result is encouraging for the Coalition, the changes were within the poll's margin of error of 2.4 percentage points.

That meant the results failed to deliver the convincing boost in support the Coalition hoped for after timing its migration changes for the days before the scheduled Newspoll.

Troll does, what troll is.

Just describing how relieved you were with a non significant single point increase to the libs.

No more nonsense of NewPoll giving a false result to keep Shorten as LOTO 

Just putting the facts out there.

You should try it one day.

Try sticking to the facts, YouLiar.

Can’t argue worth a damn when you throw a couple of facts his way (just like Sir Booby de Louse can’t argue worth a damn.)
