Fresh polling has revealed Pauline Hanson’s popularity has fallen after the One Nation leader’s sprawling Press Club speech in which she declared multiculturalism a “failed policy” and called for a monocultural society.

Hanson’s net favourability dropped 10 points in the past month, according to The Australian Financial Review’s Redbridge poll.

Labor retook the lead in the poll, gaining two points to 30 per cent of the primary vote, while One Nation dropped two points to 29 per cent. The Coalition did not benefit from One Nation’s slide, falling to 18 per cent, and Opposition Leader Angus Taylor’s personal rating fell five points to minus 9.

The Australian’s Newspoll showed similar gains for Labor, from 30 to 33 per cent, while One Nation dipped from 31 to 29 per cent. Again, the Coalition failed to gain any ground, sliding to 17 per cent.
