Fianna Fáil back in the lead, but leadership is in short supply. |
The Sunday Independent today
published the second poll in just over a week to confirm the reinstatement of our erstwhile nemesis Fianna Fáil as the largest party in the land, coming as it did shortly after the Irish Times
published broadly similar results. In both instances, the
don't know category was enormous, being 27% today and 34% last week, which gives some comfort. But most
don't know groups tend to break broadly with the trend, and therefore we need to presume that they're not all going to some consistent non-Fianna Fáil group, whether anti-bailout -
a la Sinn Féin - or conservative pro-European -
a la Fine Gael. Labour, I'm afraid, is indistinct.
