'No panic' in Fine Gael after disastrous opinion poll

"If the Government plan on housing works, we will turn it around," said a Fine Gael source after a new poll put the party on its lowest-ever level of support.

Fine Gael politicians insist there is no panic within the party after a new opinion poll put the party at a record low of 15% support.

A Sunday Times/Behaviour & Attitudes poll carried out between March 28 and April 4 saw Fine Gael plummet to historically low levels in a week during which the main Opposition party picked up a significant bounce in support following controversy over the Government's ending of the eviction ban.
