The Green Party is unchanged on 8%, while Labour drops one point to stand on 4%.

Independents and Others are down two to 20%.

A breakdown of these figures shows both the Social Democrats and Solidarity-People Before Profit are unchanged on 2%.

Independents are also unchanged on 10% and there was no change either in the Independent Alliance's vote, which is less than 1%.

Aontú is at 1% and other groups and parties are on 3%.
