The Sinn Féin Slump

Today I take a look at Sinn Féin’s polling woes and have a look at why they are losing the massive lead they had gained. I explore their popularity, and how they had effectively positioned themselves as the alternative to the status quo of Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil (and the Greens). So what has gone wrong? Changing stances on immigration and the Hate Speech Bill have seemingly damaged their popularity, but is it more attempts at populism, or backtracking and u-turning?
