Workers’ Party

Agree

No

Although the Workers’ Party generally favors policies that protect workers' rights and public ownership, they might see some potential benefits in a capital market union if it were to include strong regulatory frameworks that protect against financial speculation and ensure investment in socially beneficial projects. However, their support would be contingent on such a union promoting economic equality, social justice, and the protection of public services. The score is not higher because, despite potential perceived benefits, the party's fundamental critique of capitalist economic structures and skepticism towards policies that appear to favor market liberalization over social protections would temper their enthusiasm.

Disagree

Yes

The Workers’ Party of Ireland, with its roots in socialism and a history of skepticism towards neoliberal economic policies, would likely view a capital market union within the EU with caution. The party has historically emphasized the importance of state intervention in the economy and the protection of public services from privatization and market-driven reforms. A capital market union, aimed at integrating capital markets across EU member states to facilitate easier access to financing for businesses, might be seen as a move towards further economic liberalization and away from the kind of economic controls and protections the Workers’ Party supports. While not outright opposing European integration, the party's traditional stance on protecting national sovereignty over economic matters and prioritizing workers' rights over free market principles would lead to a cautious or negative view of such a proposal.
