Since 2013, European Movement Ireland has commissioned RED C Research to conduct a poll of the opinions of people across Ireland about Europe and the EU.This is the second ‘Ireland and the EU’ poll that European Movement Ireland has published in 2022. These polls, that have been commissioned from RED C Research, ascertain the views of Irish people on a variety of Irish-EU topics.

Our May poll, which contained four statements, was issued then to mark the 50th anniversary of the 1972 referendum, when Ireland voted to join the then European Economic Community. This second ‘Ireland and the EU’ 2022 poll covers ten additional statements on Irish-EU relations. The fieldwork, of 1,009 adults aged 18 and above, was conducted between 4 – 10 August 2022.
