This poll is the first ever time that SF’s figure (36%) is higher than the combined figure for FF & FG (35%)

  1. As more and more people on percieved good wages cannot find places to rent and are completly priced out of buying the more anger will grow.

    There is a massive trait of greed running wild in Irish society today. Its truely disgusting.

    500euro a night hotels

    No change from a tenner for 2 pints

    Highest insurance in europe

    Highest mortgage rates

    Service charges for nearly everything

    Whinging hospitality sector

    Landlords charging extortionate rents

    State land being handed to private interests for rent to buy

    The list goes on and on of pure greed.

  2. SF need over 40% I would guess to form any type of stable government. If they are relying too heavily on the likes of PBP and a wide range of independents with slim margins then it will likely fall at the first hurdle.

  3. Mid-term.polling is kinda irrelevant. Govt has 3 years to run and they almost always do here. Whatever your feelings one way or another, lots will change in the coming 3 years that could make these numbers very different.

  4. Pity there isn’t an election tomorrow,. FFG look to be borrowing like they won’t be in power after the current term. Meaning SF will have a very difficult presidency.

  5. Not surprising. FF/FG essentially turned their back to anyone who became of working age after 2008.

    The ladder was pulled up and never brought back down so the non FF/FG demographic is only growing. They dont have new voters coming in and their previous core voter is slowly literally dying of old age.

  6. There is a view amongst some in office, that you will need SF to be power before the electorate will realise that SF are overpromising charlatans like the other politicians.
