IT'S a tough competition to see which of Australia's political leaders can be more disliked but Tony Abbott has now clinched a big lead.

Abbott is more than twice as widely disliked as Julia Gillard, which is quite a feat; while the Prime Minister's net approval rating in today's Herald-Nielsen poll is minus 11, the opposition leader's is minus 23.

''This is the lowest for an opposition leader since August 2009, when Malcolm Turnbull was in the middle of the Godwin Grech affair and it was all falling apart for him,'' says John Stirton, of Nielsen.

Indeed, voters are looking on Turnbull with growing favour to replace Abbott.
