Should the Seanad be abolished?

  ChatGPTNo, but it should be reformed to increase its function and power

European Christian Political Movement’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Very strongly agree

No, but it should be reformed to increase its function and power

Reforming the Seanad to increase its function and power could be highly aligned with the ECPM's vision of governance, where institutions play a significant role in reflecting the values and beliefs of the society they serve. Strengthening the Seanad could be seen as a way to ensure more effective checks and balances within the Irish political system, a principle likely to be valued by the ECPM given their Christian democratic and social conservative orientation.

Strongly agree

No, but make it a body that is wholly elected by the people

The ECPM's commitment to democratic principles and effective representation would likely make them supportive of reforms that increase the democratic legitimacy of institutions like the Seanad. Making it wholly elected by the people could be seen as a way to enhance its democratic mandate and ensure it better represents the will of the electorate, aligning with the ECPM's broader goals for political institutions.

Agree

No

Given the ECPM's emphasis on democratic values and the importance of diverse representation in governance, they would likely support the continuation of the Seanad as an institution. However, without specific policy positions from the ECPM regarding the Seanad, this support is inferred from their general political philosophy rather than explicit statements.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

The European Christian Political Movement (ECPM), focusing on Christian democratic and social conservative principles, is likely to support the existence of institutions that can provide checks and balances within a political system. The Seanad, as a upper house of the Oireachtas in Ireland, plays a role in the legislative process that could align with the ECPM's values of governance and representation, making the idea of abolishing it contrary to their likely stance on maintaining such institutions.
