Agree

Yes, this is necessary to combat terrorism

The ECR's focus on security and national sovereignty could make them more amenable to surveillance measures aimed specifically at combating terrorism. They might view this as a necessary compromise to ensure public safety, aligning with their broader security concerns.

Agree

No

Slightly agree

Yes, but only for those with criminal backgrounds

Disagree

No, and enact legislation preventing government surveillance of citizen communications

While the ECR values individual freedoms, their approach to governance and emphasis on security might prevent them from fully supporting legislation that completely bans government surveillance. They are likely to see some level of surveillance as necessary for national security purposes.

Disagree

Yes
