Poll: Only 17 Percent in Northern Ireland Would Vote For a United Ireland

Not the kind of number Sinn Fein was hoping for

Sinn Fein's proposal for a Border vote on a United Ireland would end in rejection according to a new opinion poll with only 17 per cent in favor.

Party leader Gerry Adams is keen for the vote on Northern Ireland's future to be held as soon as possible.

Provision for the poll on a United Ireland is included in the Good Friday agreement.
