Shades of the aftermath of the 1993 federal budget in Queensland, where the first state poll conducted in the wake of the government’s announcement of asset sales and abolition of the petrol subsidy has seen a plunge in support for Anna Bligh’s government. The Galaxy survey of 800 respondents shows the LNP opening up a 55-45 lead, compared with Labor’s 50.5-49.5 election result in March and the 51-49 LNP lead in the final Galaxy poll of the campaign. The LNP leads on the primary vote 47 per cent to 36 per cent, compared with 41.6 per cent and 42.2 per cent at the election. Further questions on attitudes to the asset sales and petrol subsidy produced predictably negative responses.
