A current study paints a devastating picture of the mood of the population about domestic politics. If the government went to school, nearly a third (31 percent) of the population would give it a “five.” But the prospects for the other parties are not exactly rosy either: neither the government nor the opposition is confident that they can solve major problems.
A year ago, the Gallup government poll for the lowest possible school grade was 21 percent. 23 percent currently rate “satisfactory”, 29 “satisfactory” and only 16 “very good” or “good”.
The main issues facing the population at the moment are energy supply and inflation. “No party – whether in the coalition or in the opposition – is highly credited with problem-solving skills,” said Andrea Fronaschütz, head of Austria’s Gallup Institute.
Parties only strong on core issues
The parties are most likely to score on their core themes: the SPÖ on health and social issues, the Greens on climate protection, the FPÖ on migration, the ÖVP on national defense and peacekeeping and the NEOS on corruption.
No confidence in corruption cases
However, especially on this point, the Austrians do not see a clear topic leader. About a third of the population does not find anti-corruption solutions in the domestic party landscape. Unsurprisingly, Austrians are the least likely to agree with the ruling parties’ positions on this issue.
The survey is based on an online survey of 1000 people at the end of October. According to Gallup, the clientless self-examination is representative of anyone over the age of 16 who uses the Internet.
