🚨 Civil society to European leaders: deliver a budget that is up to the challenge. Ahead of the June European Council, we are joining Civil Society Europe’s open letter calling for a strong EU budget for 2028–2034, backed by adequate new resources. Read the letter: bit.ly/4oDcUUK #EUCivilSociety

European Movement Ireland were delighted to hold an excellent meeting yesterday with Ambassador of Ukraine to Ireland Larysa Gerasko. CEO David Geary and H.E Gerasko enjoyed a fruitful discussion on the state of Ukraine, EU membership, and much more.

🎤 On this episode of 'Just the Chats', Host and European Movement Ireland CEO David Geary is joined by inventor and environmental advocate Fionn Ferreira to discuss the growing challenge of microplastic pollution in Ireland and beyond. www.europeanmovement.ie/56-waterways...

The EU’s most powerful economic asset is its Single Market. Yet barriers to trade, services and innovation remain. The One Europe, One Market Roadmap sets out a programme to address these gaps by the end of 2027. Check out the full story here! 🔗 www.europeanmovement.ie/just-the-fac...

What will the EU's next long-term budget mean for global development and civil society? And what could these changes mean in practice? Read more in the latest blog on our Civil Society Hub! 🔗 www.europeanmovement.ie/global-europ...

The involvement of Lucid Talk, with a proven record of representative sampling in the North, definitely adds more credibility to the findings. Remember: the supposed trigger for a border poll is an indication to the Sec of State that it might pass…

Interesting update! Have spoken to EMI about this: • Their NI sample is conducted by Lucid Talk, without identifying EMI • Blind sample (n=1200) was 45% Catholic, 40% Protestant, 15% other • However: questions have an obvious EU lens - people will answer Qs about unity through the lens of Europe

European Movement Ireland’s annual poll, as usual, shows 82% of RoI residents support EU membership. But one striking finding elsewhere: residents of N Ireland are also surveyed, and 63% (!!??) would vote in favour of a United Ireland. No mainstream poll has *ever* recorded a margin like this…
