Comments on the clue
1.EC is not really an alternative name for EU, sorry (EC is now European Commission)
2.Why 'pollster'?
3.Topical, but where does 'pollster' come into it?
4.Role of 'pollster' in the definition? Seems to be there only for surface
5.Nice try at a topical surface, but 'Pollster' seems to be padding that confuses the definition.
