Mike Baird still Australia's most popular politician: poll

NSW Premier Mike Baird remains the nation's most popular politician and his Coalition government is increasing its lead over Labor, the latest Newspoll shows.

Mr Baird's satisfaction rating has hit 63 percent, his highest since becoming premier in April last year, according to the poll conducted for The Australian.

His Coalition's primary vote has lifted to 47 percent, from 45.6 percent at the March election, while Labor's has fallen to 33 percent, down from 34.1 percent.

The Coalition leads Labor 56 per cent to 44 percent on two-party-preferred terms, a small swing towards the government since the last election.

Opposition Leader Luke Foley's satisfaction rating has dropped to 35 percent.
