Support for Labor hits lowest point since election, as Australians reveal what cost of living worries them

Voter support for Federal Labor has collapsed to its lowest level since Anthony Albanese was elected in 2022, according to the latest poll, as housing costs remain the biggest worry for households across the country.

The new poll shows Labor’s primary vote has fallen to just 31 per cent — the lowest level since the election — with the Government’s support sliding in the past few months, as cost-of-living pressures continue to *****.

The figures, published in The ***********, show the next election, due by May next year, is still a tight race — with both parties tied on 50 per cent two-party preferred, the third straight poll with the tied figures.

On primary votes, the Coalition remained steady at 38 per cent. Support for the Greens rose one point to 13 per cent.

Despite Labor’s sliding support, Mr Albanese ******** the preferred Prime Minister, picking up an extra point to lead Opposition Leader Peter Dutton 46 per cent to 37 per cent.

Satisfaction with the Prime Minister also grew to 43 per cent, while more than half of voters still remained dissatisfied with his performance (51 per cent).

His net approval grew five points to ****** eight.

Mr Dutton’s net satisfaction fell two percentage points to ****** 15.

In separate questions, voters were asked about the cost of living which worried them the most, with housing the top anxiety for 40 per cent of voters.

Housing pressures were felt most by those aged 18 to 34 — with almost three in five ranking it as their biggest concern, while more than half of 35 to 50-year-olds ranked it their highest cost pressure.

One-quarter of Australians ranked grocery costs as their biggest costs concern. Labor is embroiled in a political ****** over its housing programs with both the Coalition and the Greens, with negotiations over its Help to Buy and Build to Rent stalling in the Senate last week.

The Government has sought to brand the two parties as the “Noalition” over the stance.
