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.

I'm confused by the Queensland government's move to lift the alcohol bans in Indigenous communities. It's not that long ago that John Howard, under the influence of Mal Brough, imposed alcohol bans in the Northern Territory as part of cleaning-up corruption and abuse. Both got a lot of credit from Liberal voters for this, but 5 years later we see Liberal state and territory governments moving in the opposite direction.

Cubbie station seems a good test of what the limits are in what people will accept in foreign ownership. It is something most people know something about and it brings into play the rural sector, our iconic Murray River, environmental issues, industrial and national development, and the impact on local economies.

We're not comfortable with it, we reluctantly admit we need it, but we can't think of too many things we'd give over to it? What is it?
