Australian PM Turnbull under pressure after Govt loses 29th straight opinion poll

Amid the latest political tensions propping up in Australia, the result of the widely watched opinion poll showed that the Australian PM Turnbull is just one poll away from a symbolically significant 30th poll loss, Reuters reports.

Turnbull cited this as one of his reasons for toppling former leader Tony Abbott in a party room spill in September 2015.

While speaking to reporters, Turnbull noted: “We are seeking to reduce business taxes to allow Australian businesses to invest and compete and create even more great jobs.”

The latest Newspoll, published in The Australian newspaper on Monday, shows the Liberal-National coalition trailing the opposition Labor Party 47-53 on a two-party preferred basis.
