Labor has recorded its best Newspoll result in more than three months.

According to the poll, conducted for News Corp last weekend, Labor’s primary vote rose two points in the last two weeks to 36 per cent – its highest level of support in three and a half months.

Coalition support remained steady at 38 per cent, while the Greens dropped one point to 13 per cent.

Independents and minor parties also fell one point, now sitting at 13 per cent.

The poll gives Labor its 13th consecutive lead over the Coalition in two-party-preferred terms, with a significant 54-46 lead. At the 2013 federal election, the Coalition attracted 53.5 per cent of the two-party preferred vote.

On the question of who would make the better Prime Minister, the position of the leaders was unchanged from the previous poll, with Tony Abbott leading  Bill Shorten 39 to 38, with 23 per cent of voters uncommitted.
