Political

In a survey conducted by Public Opinion Research Centre in February 2019, we investigated how people trust to political Parties and whether they are willing to take part in elections to the European Parliament. In the press release there are two different types of information: the voter preferences and the party preferences.

The voter preferences include only the views of those people who are likely to vote, while people who do not yet know how they will vote have their own category here.

The party preferences give us information about public sympathy for political parties in the group of citizens who have voting right and there is also included a part of citizens who will not take part in elections or they do not know who to vote for.

In the February survey the Public Opinion Research Centre examined a set of questions concerning the UK leaving the EU.
