Support for EU in Ireland drops to lowest level in over a decade, poll shows

The poll found 34% of Irish people feel the EU is not upholding its core values, and 26% are dissatisfied with its direction. 

Irish people are overwhelmingly in favour of EU membership but support has dropped to its lowest level since 2013, according to a new poll.

The annual European Movement Ireland Poll, conducted with Amárach Research, has found while 82% of people support Ireland's membership of the EU, some 43% do not believe their views are represented at EU level.
