October 04, 2005 Derry most europhile city in the UK? According to last night BBC2 programme 'How euro are you?', Derry has the highest proportion of europhiles in the UK. Or as Dara called it, DerryLondonderry! Posted by: smcgiff at October 4, 2005 09:32 AM Or as Dara called it, DerryLondonderry! One could hardly draw much from this survey, as the most Europhobic would not even have watched it/taken part. Posted by: smcgiff at October 4, 2005 09:35 AM It's a pretty dodgy poll too. I took it and it correctly classified me as a sceptic. But some of the questions were like "Is Poland in Europe?". Well of course it blooming well is. Even the most die hard eurosceptic knows that Eastern Europe is in Europe! Posted by: Occasional Commentator at October 4, 2005 01:28 PM This doesn't really surprise me from opinion polls on the EU issue in NI which always show that Catholics like the EU and the Euro more, whereas Protestants mostly dislike it. Why is that I wonder? Posted by: Brian Boru at October 6, 2005 08:21 PM |
