@Bananabender1; IMO the most interesting element of the latest Roy Morgan Poll is the size of the 'Other' vote - 12% is essentially for Independents.

Join the Labor and Greens vote and its effectively a Anit-Coalition Primary vote of 45.5%.

For Labor to only get another 6.5% of the UAP+ON+Others is IMO very interesting for what it's telling us about the emerging battles between Independents and Coalition MPs in what have histroically been safe Coalition seats.

The May2025 Election is still 12 months away, but I suspect the big shift next time round will be a loss by Labor of more seats to the Greens and more losses by the Coalition to Independents [especially female Teal candidates rejected by Coalition male only candidate selection processes].

If I was to make a call today it'd be for Labor to form a minority government, needing crossbench support from The Greens. IMO Dutton's Liberal Party will lose even more seats and reduce down to being the Australian Male Party.

fully agree with you lappie. minority govt with another battle for independent/other mp support to form govt.

given the size of the HoR cross bench + new independents joining the parliament its likely to be much more interesting that Gillard/Abbott battle for the support.
