Roy Morgan from 6% last month to 6.5%. This is after the 4.6% Verian poll late last week.
Momentum is building. It is looking very likely that they will get into parliament this time.

This is excellent news, and a clear sign that a large chunk of the population don't feel represented by any of the current parties.
Although I suspect I'll spend a lot of time explaining the concept of land value vs capital value in the next few months.
As long as your council splits out the LV vs improvements value on the rates bills; it is fairly easy. For renters it matters a lot less, since they won't pay the tax directly anyway.
Opportunity has said that they will not reinvent the wheel here either; they will piggyback on the council data of land value; reducing any extra overhead to run that part of the system.
