Via The Guardian:

Cory Bernardi’s new Australian Conservatives party could win support from 18% of Coalition voters according to the latest Guardian Essential Report, which also shows the two major party leaders in the doldrums with voters.

The new poll for Guardian Australia suggests voters are profoundly fatigued with the zero-sum political antics in Canberra, with Malcolm Turnbull recording his worst net approval rating as prime minister, and the Labor leader, Bill Shorten, marking his worst rating since March 2016.

These votes appear to be largely in addition to the “other” category. If within cooee of the truth this is the effective end of the Coalition as political force. Expect mushrooming policy madness.
