Polling is essentially meaningless until an election is called, and given none of the parties are making policy promises at this point it is more of a state of sentiment about the current government.
I really hope that whoever gets elected this next election that they only get a minority so there is at least some chance of ensuring they don’t do anything too extreme.

The issue with that is that the reusable bags have to be used a certain number of times before they are better than a single use plastic bag (paper bags are much more energy intensive than plastic as well). Since the switch I’ve been inundated with tons of these bags to the point where I couldn’t use them all enough even if I tried, and on top of that I hate using them since they are too bulky to carry around so I got some additional compact nylon bags instead.
But it looks good politically and was easy to implement so it was done anyway instead of actually doing the things that would reduce plastic in the environment like tackling commercial and industrial plastic waste.
