22.01.2022 In November Australians expected inflation of 3.4% annually over the next two years, down 0.1% points from October but still up 0.2% points on the record low in August. Inflation Expectations are still a significant 0.6% points below the pre-pandemic month of March 2020. Over the last few months Inflation Expectations have increased from their record low of 3.2% and when assessed by home ownership status the drive higher has come from Australian home owners who now expect inflation of 3.4% annually over the next two years up 0.3% points since August. #inflationexpectations #economy
22.01.2022 Of all Australians three-in-four (77%, down 10% points on April 2020) say they are willing to be vaccinated for Coronavirus if a new vaccine becomes publicly available, while a small 12% (up 5%) of Australians are not willing and 11% don’t know, according to a special Roy Morgan survey of an Australia-wide cross-section of 1,008 Australians aged 18+ conducted in November 2020. Analysis by State show those in New South Wales are most likely (81%) to be vaccinated if one became publicly available, while West Australians (69%) and Queenslanders (70%) are the least likely. Additionally, 20% of Queenslanders would not be willing to be vaccinated if one became publicly available much higher percentage than any of the other States: WA (14%), NSW (11%), VIC (9%) and SA (6%). #vaccination #internationaltravel #coronavirus
22.01.2022 New research from Roy Morgan shows over 13.1 million Australians (62.4%) said TV was a main source of news during the June quarter 2020, up from 12.6 million (60.0%) during the March quarter. TV emerged as the favoured news source during the period of lockdown for more Australians than any other as over 4.3 million Australians were sent to work from home in March. Roy Morgan’s data on working from home shows there were still 3.9 million Australians working from home in July. #news #preferredsource #lifeinlockdown
21.01.2022 In October Australians expected inflation of 3.5% annually over the next two years, up 0.2% points from September and now up 0.3% points on the record low in August. However, Inflation Expectations are still a significant 0.5% points below the pre-pandemic month of March 2020. The opening up of Australia continued during October with Victoria finally exiting a 16-week lockdown late in the month and border restrictions between various States being relaxed. Inflation Expectations increased in all States since August except Victoria which has the lowest in the nation at only 3.2% (unchanged). #inflation #expectations #economy
20.01.2022 New data from Roy Morgan shows fewer Australians are experiencing Health Conditions such as Ear, Nose & Throat infections, Allergies/Colds & Flu, Digestive System illnesses, Bones, Joints & Muscles issues and Heart & Circulation conditions than a year ago. The largest decline from a year ago is for Ear, Nose & Throat conditions experienced by 44.9% of Australians in the last year, down a large 14.4% points on a year ago. However, as reported previously, there are some Health ...Conditions that are higher than a year ago led by Mental Health conditions, up 4.1% points to 44.1% of Australians, Behavioural issues, up 1.5% points to 8.7% and Brain & Nervous System conditions, up 1.4% points to 24.9%. #publichealth #healthconditions #mentalhealth
19.01.2022 Of all Australians 59% now think 2021 will be ‘better’ than 2020 the highest positive view on the year ahead since 2009 following the Global Financial Crisis, a special Roy Morgan web survey conducted in November finds. A further 17% say 2021 will be ‘the same’, an all-time record low of 10% say 2021 will be ‘worse’ than 2020 and 14% don’t know. Australians are far more positive about 2021 than they were a year ago about 2020 when only 12% said 2020 would be ‘better’ than 2019 and a large 40% said the year ahead would be ‘worse’. This comes as little surprise as people hope for a return to normality after the Covid-19 pandemic. #2021 #futureoutlook #australianexpectations
18.01.2022 The Labour/Greens government enjoys the support of 54.5% of New Zealand electors as 2021 begins, down 2% points since November. Although a clear majority of electors support the Labour/Greens alliance this is the lowest level of combined support for the two governing parties since March 2020. Support for the Labour Party is unchanged at 44% in December. Support for the main opposition National Party is up 2.5% points to 28%, while support for Act NZ is down slightly by 0.5% points to 10%. Support for the Maori Party is now up 1% point to 2%. #NZvote #votingintention #politics
18.01.2022 ALP two-party support at 51.5% has held firm over the last two weeks with L-NP on 48.5%, according to a Roy Morgan Snap SMS survey on Victorian voting intention conducted yesterday and on Monday. The Roy Morgan survey also found 59% of Victorian electors approve of the way Premier Daniel Andrews is handling his job as Premier of Victoria, while 41% disapprove. This 59% level of approval for the Premier is down a small 2% in 2 weeks but is substantially lower than the 70% approval he enjoyed in September 8-9, 2020. #votingintention #twopartypreferred #approvalratings
15.01.2022 Continuing its important independent work tracking the Australian experience through the COVID-19 pandemic, Roy Morgan recently released findings showing that only 42% of Victorians rate the Victorian Police either ‘Very high’ (11%) or ‘High’ (31%) for honesty and ethical standards. This is a significant drop from just three years ago, when 76% rated the force either Very high (37%) or High (49%), making it important to understand the reasons behind those ratings. We are able to do so because as well as asking respondents to rate their state police force as Very High, High, Average, Low or Very Low, we ask them to explain why they feel that way, in their own words. #publicopinion #policeforce #decline
14.01.2022 What do the key indicators tell us about 2020 so far? Government and business turn to Roy Morgan for key measures on Consumer Confidence, Business Confidence, Inflation Expectations and real Unemployment. Here is what those measures show us about the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Australia so far. During the COVID-19 crisis, the ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Index, Roy Morgan Business Confidence Index and Inflation Expectations all hit new record lows and U...nemployment reached its highest level since Roy Morgan began independently measuring it more than two decades ago. #covid19 #economy #storysofar

12.01.2022 The latest data from Roy Morgan shows the total NRL supporter base has grown by 1.2% to over 5.4 million (25.9%) Australians in 2020 as the sport has dealt with the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic throughout the last few months. The COVID-19 restrictions on crowd attendances have meant the NRL has been primarily a TV Sport during Season 2020 and the news is good on that front with nearly 6.3 million (29.8%) Australians watching the NRL on TV, up almost 1% on a year ago. #NRL #tvviewership #season2020
12.01.2022 As malls emptied around them and eat-in seating was blocked off due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Quick Service Restaurants around Australia pivoted to takeaway, contactless drive-through and home delivery. The Roy Morgan Customer Satisfaction Awards recognise the brands in this fiercely competitive industry that responded best, as judged by those who matter the most: paying customers. #customersatisfaction #takeaway #restuarants

This is down 1.3% points on the previous month but is virtually unchanged on a year ago with satisfaction of 61.7% in July 2019.

The post-Christmas sales are expected to have a slightly higher rate of growth than the pre-Christmas sales with the Australian economy continuing to recover and indicators such as the ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence continuing to increase now at 109.3, up 19.1pts (+21.2%) since August 29/30, 2020. #postchristmasretail #sales #economyrecovery

ALP 49.5% on a two-party preferred basis according to the latest Morgan Poll on Federal voting intention. If a Federal Election were held now it would be too close to call with the real possibility Australia would have a hung Parliament for the first time in nearly a decade. #federalgovernment #twopartypreferred #election
