Almost fifty per cent of Australians disapprove of Julia Gillard's involvement in the AWU scandal and only eleven per cent approve, but more than fifty per cent disagree with the Opposition's pursuit of the issue. I've tried to explain the paradox at On Line Opinion in "Gillard was wrong, but we don't care". This post contains the quantitative figures.

The federal government's royal commission in to child sexual abuse is overwhelmingly supported. In a virtual focus group of 966 respondents, balanced by voting intention we found the only significant resistance was from Liberal voters, but that was only 18 per cent.

Modern democracy is an expensive business. Obama and Romney apparently spent one billion dollars between them, and the entire election cost six billion (scale that back for population and that is the equivalent of spending around $70 million in Australia on a federal election campaign).

This is entirely speculative, but our research on confidence in residential real estate led me to look at auction clearance rates, and it struck me that there could be a relationship between them and the recovery in federal Labor's vote.

There's reputed to be a third party in many Australian relationships - the house. Australians are said to be in love with real estate, but post the GFC that relationship has become high maintenance. Now there are signs that things might be about to change with auction clearance rates rising. This week we polled on Queenslanders relationship with residential real estate, and the signs were encouraging for the industry.

This is the first time that I've overlaid gender as well as voting intentions over Leximancer maps, but given the open declaration of a gender war by the prime minister, it seemed the right thing to do, and yes, men and women do see the world differently.

Our adjusted sample doesn't necessarily line-up with the most recent quantitative polling from organisations like Nielsen on issues like approvals of the leaders and preferred Prime Minister. I suspect that they are catching short-term fluctuations that we don't.

Our First Preference Index experiment is maintaining its record for accurately tracking movements in the major party votes. In our latest polling Labor has improved its vote significantly, the Greens have gone backwards and the Libs are a smidgin under steady, a similar result to Newspoll.

FOREIGN journalists and social media proclaimed it a success, while domestic political commentators, including me, canned it.
