If it is saveable it should be remade into an organisation that promotes peace, justice and solidarity and looks after its people and others struggling in this world

 @9ZWFB36answered…2mos2MO

I don't think we should withdraw, However, as mentioned elsewhere by me, yes rules for migrants should be adjusted in general, but also, I think that there are certain issues with other EU countries that the Irish government seem to just roll over for

 @9ZVJZF3answered…2mos2MO

No but renegotiate for strict limits on immigration into the country and terms of our money contributions and the right to not introduce hate speech laws and any gender ideology or any LGBQT recognition

 @9ZFSGBYanswered…3mos3MO

Yes, in order to reduce Irish complicity with Fortress Europe and the genocide in Gaza. Additionally to prevent capitalism from being enshrined in supranational law.

 @9MY38KGanswered…8mos8MO

Not at present and not over migration, but I do think we should continue to evaluate our relationship with the EU.

 @B2GVP7Sanswered…2wks2W

This is a catch 22 where even if we did leave we don’t have the leader with the vision or ability to manage it successfully

 @9ZHJK2Kanswered…3mos3MO

No, but Ireland should seek to reform the EU away from its current direction of increased military and global interference.

 @9ZBS3BBanswered…3mos3MO

the eu is an ultimately exploited of an imperialist body yeah we do depend on them and leaving the EU would Cause certain catastrophe for our, our economy

 @9HTNMLFSocial Democratsanswered…1yr1Y

No, but lobby to reform subsidy/payment systems for food production industries such as agriculture and fishing, to ensure fair pay and competition, while reducing negative impacts on the environment and biodiversity.

 @9H7CKHYSocial Democratsanswered…1yr1Y

No; I am eurosceptic and don’t like how much we do to endear ourselves to Brussels but it would cause more problems for Ireland to leave

 @9F5WPFPSinn Féinanswered…1yr1Y

Yes, but over a 10-year period at least in order to ensure a smooth transition towards a self-sufficient country.

 @9ZFGJ3Janswered…3mos3MO

No but many policies imposed on us should be eased such as reduce our requirements for immigrants and also we should benefit from local uses that EU countries utilise like our national waters for fishing

 @9J6SMBCSinn Féinanswered…1yr1Y

No , but stricter limits on immigration and also I think we need more freedom , we should be able to help Palestine and Cuba and other counties like this without being punished by eu , we need more sovereignty

 @9N4DKF4PBB Solidarityanswered…8mos8MO

We should withdraw from the European Union due to the drifting of EU fiscal policy towards the right. However we should still maintain free travel of people between the member states.

 @9MJF536answered…9mos9MO

Yes, but only if we have a government committed to public ownership of our natural resources and the funding of a welfare state with co-operatively owned industries.

 @9M9LNFJanswered…9mos9MO

The fishing rights issue needs to be addressed, now that our actual borders have been shown to be much larger than realised.

 @9LLKJC9Sinn Féinfrom New York  answered…10mos10MO

The EU should be reformed to be more equitable to peripheral economies such as Ireland; the Eurozone, in particular, should be abolished insofar as it takes monetary policy away from democratic states and allows any policy to be vetoed by the German banking establishment.

 @8PK4ZNYanswered…4yrs4Y

No, but take a more central role in the EU and fight for the interests of all Irish workers

 @8H4GD78answered…4yrs4Y

if it means a special status for Northern Ireland within Britton which would allow Britton to leave the European Union then yes I do agree with the UK’s Brexit decision to withdraw from the European Union

 @8C5RDBVanswered…4yrs4Y

No, the EU will soon crumble on it's own. EU protectionism and example creating would destroy us if we tried to leave. We should go the way of Hungary, Poland, Scandinavia and simply stand our ground in terms of policy with a populist government and wait.

 @9C4LDG5Sinn Féinanswered…2yrs2Y

No , but we should renegotiate with the EU and put an end to bureaucratic nonsense coming from Brussels

 @98MYSLVSocial Democratsanswered…2yrs2Y

Withdrawing from the European Union needs to be done on a gradual basis but we're in no rush to leave European Union as we're not ready to do so right now on its on us to remain as we are in Europe & retain & maintain the EU single market & the European Custom union

 @98M8BPFanswered…2yrs2Y

On a gradual basis we must withdraw ourselves from the European Union we must be our own country again but not right now because we're nowhere near ready & & we're not in a hurry to leave the European Union

 @97Q84D4answered…2yrs2Y

Remaining apart of the EU should be special status given to us here in Ireland which would allow NI to remain part of Britton leave a unighted Ireland for 5 years & then have a Unighted Ireland

 @8XFLST7answered…3yrs3Y

A European wide agreement on the island of Ireland & further details will be revealed where NI is concerned

 @8RQ5ZYPanswered…4yrs4Y

No, I'm not Pro-EU but the exit process would be too problematic, as shown by Brexit.

 @8G8G3D6answered…4yrs4Y

Britton & Northern Ireland should be given a special status within the European Union that allows the North of Ireland to stay aligned with Britton & for Britton to leave the European Union

 @8DG6RF4answered…4yrs4Y

No, I'm not vehemently Pro-EU but leaving the union would cause more problems than it'd solve, look at Brexit!

 @9CRFPZCHuman Dignity Allianceanswered…2yrs2Y

No, but the EU needs to change what they are doing, and we should have more control over national policies. If this doesn't happen, we should leave.

 @9CBRMF6Workers’answered…2yrs2Y

No, but try to reform the EU to have less neoliberal capitalist policies.

 @8RLNYM8answered…4yrs4Y

No, more international cooperation, but renegotiate so that the EU is more about the common interests and not profit or capitalism.

 @8R97B5Canswered…4yrs4Y

 @8QDTZGDanswered…4yrs4Y

 @8Q7DC73answered…4yrs4Y

 @8PS9KCDanswered…4yrs4Y

like yeah, because it is a neoliberal institution but not because of racism

 @8PLQG8Banswered…4yrs4Y

Yes but support the good Friday agreement (no hard border on Republic of Ireland)

 @92P7QV6answered…3yrs3Y

I accept the outcome of the referendum but I do not agree with the policy in the first place.

 @8S4TMRZanswered…4yrs4Y

No, but be more critical of attempts to promote a European identity and an EU army

   Deletedanswered…4yrs4Y

No, but respect the vote and leave with a deal that ends membership but continues free trade

  Deletedanswered…4yrs4Y

No, but remain in the European Customs Union, Single Market and the European Space Agency
