Guardian Essential survey shows a clear majority supports Labor’s goal of sourcing 50% of energy from renewables by 2030

The latest Guardian Essential poll suggests that the Turnbull government’s relentless partisan attacks on Labor’s 50% renewable energy policy, and its concerted efforts early in the new political year to position itself as the party of cheaper and more secure power, haven’t yielded the desired result.
