Poll: France backs EU constitution
The French would approve the EU constitution if the referendum scheduled for May 29 were held today, but the numbers of those opposed are rising, a poll to be published tomorrow suggests.
The poll by the Ifop firm for the weekly newspaper Le Journal du Dimanche shows that 40% of those questioned are firmly in the “yes” camp or leaning that way while 29% are in the “no” camp or leaning toward it.
