Poll Shows Boost For Sf, Independents

Sinn Féin and unaligned Independents have been given a slight boost in support, according to the latest opinion poll.

The Red C poll in today's Sunday Business Post shows Gerry Adams' party is up by two points to 15 per cent, while Independents have reached 10 per cent, having gained three points. There were slight drops in support for Fine Gael and the Independent Alliance, while Fianna Fáil is down two points to 27 per cent. One factor in Sinn Féin's rising support is thought to have been their stance on the recent Apple tax ruling.
