From the very last sentence in the article (which is trashy journalism IMO). “The sample size of 1,083 people with a margin of error of +/- 3pc”
So basically, there is no change, but independent.ie is trying to bait with headlines
Interesting that immigration can fall so significantly in importance (10%) in the space of a single month, and the SD uptick has continued from the Red C poll into this weekend’s survey.
I wouldn’t vote for either but what would be the motivation to vote for SD instead of SF?
Looks like Sinn Fein are losing votes to the smaller center left parties and not the right wing parties as some had predicted. Not particularly surprising imo given recent weakness on climate policy and a vague immigration position
Disappointed that the coalition are steady. Just can’t stand Fine Gael in particular for talking out their arse but delivering the opposite.
As a Young person I have no intention of voting for Sinn Fein. I can almost feel the hot air coming from them.
Fine geal and Fianna fáil are the chronic disease of this country.
I just want Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael out. Out. I’m left wing, communist side of left wing. Sinn Féin the only hope of change in that direction since ever. They are humming and hawing since they’re near power which doesn’t bode well. Which was always my main fear, that they’d slowly drop the radical change. I’ve always wanted a united Ireland but that is secondary to having a just fair Ireland for everyone. Vote for Sinn Féin or Social Democrats or S-PBP, if not vote for Labour or green. Sweet Jaysus vote for any to get them out.

FG/FF need a kick up the arse. Sinn Féin in government will be healthy all around for Irish politics.
Let’s be sensible here. The parties that have been in charge know what they’re doing. Why would they be in charge so long? We should sit tight do nothing and wait for what they said would happen 10 or 20 years ago.
The 10% protest vote has been going to SF the last few years but is now becoming more diffused as specific issues are starting to get traction.
For SF they are relatively vague on immigration and the environment having put all their eggs in the fixing housing basket and people are responding to this.
They might still claw some of this back prior to the election if people decide that their best form of protest vote is to go SF in the hope of kicking out the current regime but I think it shows that support for SF was a little inflated.
Mary Lou was doing well until the 300k castastrophe, lose Dublin, Lose Ireland.
