EU Austerity Treaty poll – 4 out of 10 still to decide
Sinn Féin is calling for a rejection of austerity and stealth taxes and for people to vote ‘No’
THE EU Austerity Treaty can still be beaten, according to a new opinion poll that shows 4 out of 10 voters have still to make their minds up.
The Ipsos/MRBI poll in The Irish Times shows the ‘Yes’ side ahead by 58% to 42% among voters who have made up their mind. But the poll amongst 1,000 voters has 39% still to decide what to do on May 31st.
Commentators believe that growing anger over Fine Gael/Labour Party Government cuts and the feeling that EU powers care more about bailing out bankers than caring for EU citizens could be decisive factors in delivering a ‘No’ to the treaty and a political bloody nose to Fine Gael, Labour and Fianna Fáil leaders, who are all backing the treaty.
