58% for referendum

According to a poll by SIFO on behalf of swedish television, presented two days before the Spanish referendum, there is now a clear majority for a referendum on the EU-constitution.

58% are in favour of a referendum, 32% would prefer the question to be settled by the swedish parliament, and 11% are undecided. SIFO asked 1000 people.

Considering that the fact that many other countries will have the right to vote on this issue will become better known, the Swedish electorate is likely to become even more in favour of a referendum.
