The Queensland Government is talking up its jobs policies in the wake of a new opinion poll showing a surge in support for Pauline Hanson's One Nation in the state.

The Galaxy poll published in today's Courier Mail newspaper shows One Nation's support has increased from 16 per cent to 23 per cent in just three months.

The party picked up 11 seats in Queensland Parliament in 1998 when it won just under 23 per cent of the primary vote at that year's election.

One Nation will have a presence in Queensland Parliament in the coming week when Steve Dickson takes his seat on the crossbench after defecting from the LNP last month.

The Galaxy poll shows One Nation's support is at the expense of the major parties, which have each dropped four percentage points.

While the LNP leads in primary votes, the ALP is still ahead on a two-party preferred basis 51 to 49.

The next state election is not due to 2018, but is widely tipped to be held later this year.

Housing Minister Mick de Brenni said the Queensland Government was not losing focus.

Mr de Brenni said the Government was working hard for Queensland and believed voters would acknowledge that at the next election.

"It's only our Government that has a plan for the construction industry, it's only our Government that has a plan for small businesses that supply the construction industry — our Government is solely committed to jobs," he said.

"We'll be focussed this year on continuing to roll out a program that supports jobs, in regional economies that supports jobs here in the south-east.

"We're focussed on a pipeline of infrastructure, we'll be supporting businesses to grow."

'I don't give them the same old rhetoric': Hanson

Senator Hanson said at a press conference this afternoon the opinion poll showed it was clear to her that people wanted change.

"I think it's a combination of everything and that's why people are now saying: 'hey, we want change'," she said.

"What is happening is because I'm prepared to raise these issues to fight for it and that's what people see from me — I don't give them the same old rhetoric."

She said the major parties had "no direction".

"They don't know where they're going and they keep picking up my policies," she said.

"So watch this space — when we win seats in Parliament and we take control of this stage, then you'll see changes for the better."

'Extremely remarkable' party comeback

Griffith University political analyst Paul Williams said politics had "entered a new age of volatility".

"Some of the vote would be an anti-Islam vote, some of the vote will be just about jobs, some of the vote will be about regional and rural infrastructure," Dr Williams said.

"So Labor and the LNP are going to have to address a number of concerns on a number of fronts in order to counter the Hanson factor.

"A few years ago, One Nation was done and dusted — everyone thought Pauline Hanson was washed up.

"But the fact the party and Hanson can come back and scoop out one-quarter of the vote — it's not unprecedented — but it's extremely remarkable.

"We've seen more minor parties than ever before, we've seen hung parliaments, we've seen minority governments.

"We've entered a new age of volatility and I really think the volatility is the new norm."
