      Boggles my mind that 34% of the country are still on board with FF/FG. Having said that, the other options aren’t all that great either.

      It’s a good thing that the right leaning voters here are gravitating towards conservative centre right parties rather than hard right right wing populism like the rest of Europe

    3. While on one hand continuing to see FFG slip is good

      On the other, an overly fractured Dail could make future governments increasingly unstable

      People before profit floundering. I think having the likes of Ruth coppinger represent you is more of a liability than an asset. Very negative party that fail to inspire outside of their niche

      Wait until closer to the General Election and Sinn Féin will lose popularity while FFG rise. Irish voters are content with the status quo

      Sinn Fein might be the most popular single party in the country but there’s no feasible way they form a government with these numbers. The FFG uniparty is still on 34% despite widespread frustration with the government over fuel protests. If SF can’t break their ceiling it will be another FFG coalition government back by even more right leaning independents.

      Ff and fg will still get in. Decades of shite and it doesn’t matter

    8. Same old Sinn Fein tops the polls, will shit the bed before it means anything.

      Unless there is unity on the left we will have this grim set up for the forseeable. Aontú 7%. What kind of a shitshow is this.

      Independent Ireland got the credit for the fuel protests so they reap the rewards with these poll numbers for now, but it’ll be another thing to maintain those numbers moving forward.

      Call me when we’re at an election. These mid cycle polls are BS. Sinn Fein would be in power the guts of a decade if they were accurate.

    12. Doesn’t matter we are going to have a repeat of the 2024 election for a number of cycles where no one gets enough votes and FF/FG just go in toghether.

      These polls increasingly suggest that there is a ceiling for left wing parties of 35 to 40% and people who are dissatisfied with FF and FG are going to opt for other right wing parties like II and perhaps Aontu.

      It’s a real shame we can’t figure out how to have a popular Green Party that get into govt and make changes for the better.. 3%!! 😔

    15. One thing I’m only noticing though is, II being in Renew Europe is a tad bit of a joke at this point. They’ve shifted so much, and will continue to do so as they find the right wing populism suits them, that they could end up in the ECR group if Aontu don’t sign up there first and push them to be in one of the other groups to the right of EPP.

      Independent is high because people though it was an independent candidate

    17. Why do we have so many minor parties?

      Anyway, FFG need to stop being the establishment. Labour sold themselves out last time in power. Greens have been vastly useless Rach time they’ve seen some power. PBP are seemingly useless. Independent Ireland and Aontu are right wing bullshitters. I’m not even sure of SF but it’s at least worth a go. Them and social dems I’d like to see do something

      Everyones ffg out until they buy a house, then noones voting left wing

    19. GallopingGobshite on

      Depressing a third of people still support FFG.

      Impressive (and worrying) showing from Aontu.

      Looks like the next government will be another FFG one with a hodge podge of “independents” and a “left wing” party propping them up.

      We deserve everything we get.

      Once again, Sinn Fein is polling no1 then come election time and the RTÉ propaganda machine will conjure up a story about Sinn Fein. Last time it was “party of nonces” or 2020’s “campaign corruption” – both cases done by individuals but blown out of proportion in the media.

    21. Funny but not surprising that a majority of parties are using a shade of green for their party’s colour.
