Albanese's UN bid overshadowed by polling slump
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is in New York launching Australia's campaign for a United Nations Security Council seat for 2029-30, highlighting the nation's Indigenous history, climate change record and social media safety leadership. Labor has dropped to 27% in the primary vote, falling behind One Nation at 30%, marking the party's lowest polling since Julia Gillard's final days 13 years ago. Albanese's personal approval ratings have gone heavily negative, though he remains the preferred prime minister.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
