About this episode

Ben discusses the surge in support for One Nation with pollster George Hasanakos.

Ben was joined by George Hasanakos from pollster DemosAU to discuss the surge in support for One Nation, which has pushed them ahead of the combined Liberal-National vote in a number of polls, as well as the split in the Liberal-National coalition. They discuss how these two trends impact on how polls are conducted. This podcast was recorded before the publication of polls by YouGov and Essential that continued the continuing trend.
