A new opinion poll in tomorrow's Sunday Business Post confirms a large shift in support from the main Opposition parties to Fianna Fáil.

The Red C poll shows Fianna Fáil support is up by 6%, while Fine Gael and Labour between them have lost a similar percentage.

The latest monthly poll by Red C shows the biggest shift in support since the series began.

Fianna Fáil support is up six points to 39%, while Fine Gael at 23 is down two, and Labour at 10 is down four.

Sinn Féin has gained two points, to equal Labour on 10%, while the Greens are up one to 8%.

The PDs at three are down one, as are Independents and Others at eight.

After four Sunday Business Post polls in which Fine Gael and Labour were ahead of the current coalition parties, they are now nine points behind.
