Far-right parliamentary People's Party - Our Slovakia started collecting signatures for initiating a referendum on Slovakia leaving the EU, announced the party's leader Marian Kotleba on Friday. The decision followed the result of the Brexit referendum. So far, this initiative found support only among the far-left Communist Party of Slovakia. Based on the poll conducted by Focus agency, only 22.6% of Slovaks would vote "Out" compared to 62.1% that would vote "In". However, less than half of the supporters of staying in the EU think the EU is a good project. "This creates room for a growth in Euro scepticism," said Martin Slosiarik of Focus agency.
