今年,随着“一国党”的民调支持率飙升,宝琳·汉森先蚕食联盟党的选票,随后又转向工党,一个耐人寻味的稳定现象浮现出来:无论查看哪项民调,绿党似乎始终稳居10%至12%的区间。
New leader says his party must connect with millions of disaffected voters and ‘make them believe in politics again’ Follow our Australia news live blog for Get our new political email, free app or daily news podcast As One Nation’s polling surged this year, and Pauline Hanson ate away at the votes of first the Coalition and then Labor, one curious mainstay emerged; the Greens remained seemingly anchored to the 10-12% range, no matter which poll you look at.
然而可以说,几乎从未有比当下更有利于绿党领导人收获成果的政治土壤:一个拥有庞大多数席位、却日益不得人心的中间派工党政府;一个在澳大利亚最富有矿业亿万富豪支持下东山再起的反移民民粹主义政党;一个陷入混乱的联盟党;一场被利率上升和通胀进一步点燃的生活成本危机;以及越来越警惕的公众,他们担忧大型科技公司、大型数据中心与隐秘人工智能寡头之间的关联,并担心这些寡头可以不受惩罚地运作。
