Poll roundup

The inimitable Kevin Bonham does his usual poll roundup for which we are all grateful.

I might make a couple of points.

The ALP government is very timid and cautious. something Ross Gittins alludes to.

They are apparently getting blamed for inflation. This could only occur if they didn't make headlines about inflation when they gained office.

Jim Chalmers has essentially copied his old boss Wayne Swan. He has completely ignored the structural deficit. Has he done so he might have gotten more kudos concerning the budget and told of why he had to go softly softly because of recession fears and highlight how the Coalition made no attempt to cut the structural deficit.

Their attitude to gambling is troubling. Everyone wants something done but they seem to be afraid of the lobby re elections.

Their policy on renewables and the coaction's on nuclear power should be a certain winner but it isn't!


I could go on but you get my drift.
