Conversely, the rise in One Nation’s vote to 12 per cent is the party’s highest ever in the Resolve poll and the first time the party has been in double figures.

The survey of 1800 people took place from September 9 to 13 and has a margin of error of 2.3 per cent.

Resolve pollster Jim Reed said that “the immigration debate is undoubtedly responsible for boosting One Nation’s vote”.

“If you’re unhappy with the major parties on the environment you go to the Greens, and if you’re unhappy about immigration you go to Pauline,” he said.

“We don’t know yet if this is a short-term blip by way of a protest, or a long-term trend. The rise of the Greens has taken Labor’s primary vote, but gives back on preferences. We might be seeing the same thing starting to happen on the Coalition’s right flank.”

Thousands of people marched at the end of August in rallies against immigration in state capitals.

Overall, primary vote support for minor parties and independents rose to 38 per cent, which is higher than either Labor’s 35 per cent primary vote or the Coalition’s 27 per cent.

The findings come as the Albanese government prepares for a week of climate change policy announcements, including the long-awaited unveiling of Australia’s interim 2035 emissions reduction target .

The prime minister will this week fly to Papua New Guinea for celebrations to mark 50 years of independence, before travelling to New York next Saturday for the UN General Assembly.

He is also expected to finally meet US President Donald Trump, armed with new defence spending commitments.

While the Coalition has fared poorly in the most recent poll, voters’ favourable assessment of Ley’s performance continued.

Respondents were polled after Liberal Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price’s demotion from the shadow ministry last Wednesday September 10 after making controversial remarks about Indian migrants and refusing to back Ley as leader.

Asked to rate Ley’s performance as opposition leader in recent weeks, 41 per cent of people said it was good or very good, 32 per cent said it was poor or very poor and 26 per cent of people polled were undecided.

That translates to a net positive performance rating of 9 percentage points, consistent with two prior polls, as the number of people who are undecided fell.

In comparison, 44 per cent of voters said Albanese’s performance was good or very good but 45 per cent said it was poor or very poor.

Just 11 per cent of people were undecided and the prime minister’s net performance rating was -1 per cent.

Albanese’s lead over Ley as preferred prime minister slipped slightly, with 38 per cent of people preferring Albanese, a three percentage point dip compared to August.

Ley’s 26 per cent result is unchanged from last month and 35 per cent of respondents are undecided.

Following the sacking of Price, Ley announced a reshuffled frontbench on Sunday, bringing Tasmanian Senator Claire Chandler into the shadow ministry as spokeswoman on cybersecurity and science, while MP Simon Kennedy was appointed shadow assistant minister for artificial intelligence and the digital economy.

In addition to promoting two conservatives after sacking a favourite of the hard right, Ley handed the defence personnel portfolio to WA MP Melissa Price, a moderate and ally who did the job in the Morrison government.
