Irish would now vote yes to Lisbon Treaty

According to a new poll, 54% of Irish people would vote Yes on the Lisbon Treaty, against 28% who would vote No. Recently, the Yes vote made some gains.
This compares with a referendum result last June of 53.4% "No" and 46.6% "Yes." The Irish government has consented to holding a second Lisbon vote this autumn, subject to concessions in areas of concern for Irish voters, such as military neutrality, taxation and the retention of a European commissioner.
