One Nation surges in the polls, stripping potential votes from Labor and the Coalition

One Nation is now stripping potential votes from Anthony Albanese and the Labor Party and is doing more damage to the federal Coalition, a new poll has revealed.

The latest Resolve Political Monitor polling, conducted from March 9 to 14 as the war in the Middle East escalated, has pushed One Nation's primary vote above the Coalition to sit at 24 per cent.

The federal opposition fell to a record low of 22 per cent, despite a change in the guard as Angus Taylor was elected as leader.

But damage is now being done to federal Labor's primary vote, which fell back to 29 per cent from 31 per cent in February.

Pauline Hanson's political ascension comes during a turbulent period of politics, both at home and abroad.

Since former Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce defected and joined the firebrand Queenslander, One Nation's primary vote has surged from a low of just 16 per cent on Christmas Day.

The Resolve poll was published for The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age newspapers (owned by Nine), who chose not to report on results of the two-party-preferred vote between the Coalition and Labor.

The newspapers said this was because "the huge surge in support for One Nation makes any preference vote potentially misleading".

When it comes to preferred prime minister, Taylor's move into the top job has helped him claw back some ground on Albanese, who fell from 37 per cent to 35 per cent. Taylor's debut put him at 31 per cent compared to Sussan Ley's last result of 22 per cent.

Resolve pollster Jim Reed told the SMH that Labor had lost vote share to minor parties, putting the party at its lowest point this term.

"This follows the interest rate rise and fuel shortages, which are the straw that broke the camel's back for voters who have been struggling with the cost of living for four years now."

The most dominant policy priority is the cost of living, with 43 per cent of respondents nominating as the most important issue in Australia.
