Labor, coalition neck-and-neck in latest Newspoll

Labor and the coalition are level at 50-50 on a two-party-preferred basis, the latest polling shows, as parliament resumes following the winter break.

Support for the federal Labor government has slipped amid the cost-of-living crisis, with the coalition gaining ground on primary votes according to a new poll conducted for The *********** and published in the paper on Monday.

The poll shows Labor’s primary vote decreased by one point to 32 per cent while the coalition’s increased by one to 39 since July 21.

The primary vote for minor parties and independents was up one point to 11 per cent, with the Greens’ primary vote falling one point to 12 per cent.

Support for One Nation was steady at six per cent.

The survey registered a fall in the popularity of both Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Opposition Leader Peter Dutton.

Voter satisfaction for Mr Albanese dropped one point to 43 per cent while satisfaction with Mr Dutton fell one point to 40 per cent.

The bump is not enough to put the coalition in a winning position.

The next federal election is due by May 2025.

The survey of 1266 voters was conducted online between August 5 and August 9.
