A new poll out today conducted by Ireland Thinks for the Irish Daily Mail has recorded a jump in support in voters in the South for Irish Unity.
Ireland Thinks interviewed a random sample of 1,144 adults aged 18+ by telephone between Thursday 14th December and Friday 22nd December 2017. This group carried out a similar poll in March this year.
Respondents were asked the following question;
If it cost the Irish government €9 billion per annum for Northern Ireland to unite with the Republic of Ireland, how would you vote in relation to a referendum on a United Ireland?
In favour-60% (+10% since March)
Against-40% (-10% since March)
