The Results
After the ugliest week in years, FF re-emerges as poster boy This Latest Kantar Millward Brown Opinion Poll, conducted over ten days up to and including Thursday, coincided with one of the most dysfunctional weeks in Irish Politics in several years. It captures the public s reaction to an extraordinary seven days, where shifts in the narrative moved at a pace that the Trump administration would be proud of. For Enda Kenny, the news is grim. Fine Gael has dropped four points since the last comparable poll in October. It will provide added impetus for those clamouring for his resignation. That is a foregone conclusion, but it simply weakens his hand further in terms of leaving office at a time of his suiting. Unless the hawks in his party are magnanimous, he may not reach the milestone of being the longest serving leader of Fine Gael. Of course, this is simply a snapshot, and the public has shown themselves to be fickle opinion ebbs and flows like the tide. However, for Kenny, the tide is now firmly against him. The main beneficiary of this poll is undoubtedly Fianna Fail. They have increased six points to 33pc, and have opened up clear blue water between themselves and the main Government party. This is by far the highest rating they have received since the crash. They have put on a competent performance being in pseudo opposition. Their response to the current McCabe controversy has been measured. But let s not think that this is solely because they think it is the right thing to do. Fianna Fail are playing the long game. Micheal Martin chose to be statesman-like in terms of his response to this week. The alternative was that a general election would be called. Most politicians don t have the appetite for one, and the public certainly do not. For Fianna Fail to pull the plug could have backfired spectacularly. The public, still weary from last year s election and the tortuous government formation, could well have taken out their frustration on FF for a perceived knee jerk reaction for political gain. 5
After the ugliest week in years, FF re-emerges as poster boy (Cont d) Looking at our poll results since the General Election, Fianna Fail s support has been increasing incrementally, and has surged this week. They have, in effect outmanoeuvred Fine Gael over the past twelve months. Of course, they don t have the baggage of trying to cobble and continually gel together a disparate group which makes up the cabinet table. Sinn Fein, generally the star of mid-term opinion polling, is stagnating. They haven t made any move, despite the Government s travails. Satisfaction with the Government has unsurprisingly slipped. Nearly two in three (64pc) are unhappy with its performance. Traditionally we see a bounce in government satisfaction in the first poll of a new year (arguably because they have been out of view over the Christmas recess). This long term phenomenon has been reversed this year. Of course, the focus this weekend is on Enda Kenny, and his forecast imminent departure. Ironically, the events of the past week, whilst dramatic as they were, have not done much damage to his personal satisfaction ratings. The numbers happy with his performance have dropped two points to 27pc, well within the margin of error. Reflecting other findings, the most effective leader is Micheal Martin (up one to 44pc). Satisfaction among his own FF supporters is at an all-time high (84pc) Turning again the Mr Kenny, the proportion of those who feel he should resign has remained steady (albeit deeply in negative territory). Interestingly, satisfaction with his performance among his own party supporters has actually increased (up five to 73pc). Much has been written today about potential successors to the Fine Gael Leadership. Among the general public, neither of the two leading candidates (Varadkar, 27pc, and Coveney, 23pc) are really capturing the imagination. 6
After the ugliest week in years, FF re-emerges as poster boy (Cont d) Among Fine Gael supporters, Varadkar opens up a gap (37pc vs 28pc), but this not as significant as he may well like. Intriguingly, among the party faithful, over one in five (22pc) would prefer neither, or somebody else. This may well lead to a third party entering the race. Things may not be as clear-cut as they may seem. Whilst all these headline results are striking, there are some other, more subtle shifts illuminated in today s poll. The appetite for Independents/other parties has collapsed since the General Election. Collective they muster 16pc of the vote (Greens included). Contrast this with the 30pc they claimed last ruary. It may be that the promise of new politics may have been a bridge to far, and the public have noticed. To reinforce this point, Kantar Millward Brown asks a Toxicity measure that is, which party would people not vote for. There have been notable increases in negativity towards all of the smaller parties. For some Independents/smaller parties, they have flattered to deceive. For others, they have reneged on their positions. This has had the effect of increasing cynicism among many. It has ironically goaded voters back to the fold of the poster boy of all that was perceived to be wrong in Irish politics; Fianna Fail. This is reflected in the fact that there is disillusionment with politics in general as in the aftermath of the 2011 election, we were again assured that after last ruary, there would be a change in how politics is conducted in this country. The Public have rated Leinster House s performance in a more uncertain fashion. When asked if the past 12 months has been a good year for Irish politics, less than one in five (19pc) agree. 35pc feel it has been a bad year, with a further 37pc saying it was indifferent. Hardly a ringing endorsement for our Legislators or new politics in general. 7
After the ugliest week in years, FF re-emerges as poster boy (Cont d) Moving away from politics, there is one statistic that stands out dramatically. On any other week, it would potentially be headline news. We have tracked consumer sentiment for nearly thirty years. That is, do people believe they will be better off, worse off or about the same this time next year? The results this weekend are revealing. Over one in four (27pc) believe that they will be financially better off over the next twelve months, compared to just 14pc saying they will be worse off. Whilst the numbers may sound modest, this is the largest measure of positivity seen since the crash. In essence, there is a net positivity of +13 (better off minus worse off). Since the crash, the average sentiment was -23. Negativity has averaged at 39 since 2008. Given the uncertainty over Brexit, the impact of Trump and the instability bubbling just below the surface in Europe, this illustrates a remarkably upbeat population. However, there is a stark geographical and political message as well. Two in five Dubliners (where the Government receives its highest satisfaction rating) feel that the future is bright. A two tier society is as strong as ever, whereby the capital flourishes whilst the rest of the country feels left behind. 8
