        It’s misleading to spin this #Newspoll result as a comeback for Turnbull. Comeback?!? The abysmally low primary vote hasn’t moved one iota, and his Preferred PM rating hasn’t improved either! WHERE is the comeback?!? The 2PP seems a rogue result that will be corrected next poll.

        Don’t forget there’s been a bit of ball-tampering with #Newspoll too. It’s not cricket to change the methodology immediately after No 30!

        Change the methodology. Also notice it took Malcolm a lot longer to hit the 30 than Abbott. I guess they were testing Abbott more times a month

        Never before in the field of human #polling (or #RoboPolling) has a #political opinion #poll been so meaningless & hopelessly out-of-date due to events taking place since fieldwork. And statistically - it's no change! #KellyNoSorry #KellyALiability #insiders #auspol

        30 straight loss. Just near the close gap, lnp jumps the gun. They so keen on power.

        Still not sure what's driving this. The govt had the week from hell. This should be much worse than it is... Could it be that the punters like it when the PM leaves the country?
