Poll reveals most voters want an alternative coalition

AN opinion poll published today shows the majority of Irish voters would prefer a different combination of parties in power after the next general election.

The poll shows that 55% of voters surveyed want an alternative Government and 32% opted for the current Fianna Fáil/Progressive Democrats coalition.

But the Irish Times poll also shows there is not a clear alternative Government emerging, with more voters supporting a coalition led by Fianna Fáil than one involving Fine Gael.
