Radio Poll re; Lisbon Treaty...puts No... way ahead

category international | eu | other press author Wednesday September 30, 2009 09:49author by paul o tooleauthor email pauljotoole at eircom dot net Report this post to the editors

Is all not well in the Yes Camp???
A text poll conducted on Newstalk No-66% / / Yes-34%.

With the government putting its weight, and millions of our taxpayers money, behind the Yes campaign, with massive investment from Ryanair, Intel and many other private corporations. With a ruling from the BCI that balance in media is not necessary- over-ruling the Mcarthy judgement which ensured 50-50 balance in media.
With unions, associations, clergy, noted individuals and all manner of political industrial media and comercial personalities lining up to offer their support for a yes vote the poll shows a shocking reality.

People either dont trust the government, the treaty, the media or all three. This is just a poll but it flies in the face of the Independent red sea poll and others.
With the last day of campaigning in full flight media is already off to a huge push with Joe Higgins fencing off a disgraceful onslaught of ambushing on Newstalk From Ivan yates....a sign that all is not well in the yes camp.
