In 2017, Varadkar became the first gay prime minister of the once-staunchly Catholic country and the youngest person to hold the office. He returned to the premiership in 2022 under a rotation arrangement struck between Fine Gael and Fianna Fail, the two largest parties in a three-party coalition with the smaller Green Party.
Varadkar's government has overseen a sharp economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic but has struggled to tackle a decade-long housing crisis and more recently the pressure on services from record numbers of asylum seekers and Ukrainian refugees.
He also suffered an embarrassing referendum defeat this month when a large majority of voters rejected proposals to replace constitutional references to a mother's "duties in the home", though other main parties, including Sinn Fein, also supported the government's proposal.

Unexpectedly? Was the Spanish Inquisition involved?
Their chief weapon is surprise, and Varadkar employed it, so . . .
Any truth that he is “meeting” with Barry and Big Mike Maobama?
I hadn’t heard about that one
🤷♂️🤷♀️🤷🤷♂️
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Something fine has happened in Ireland.
PUT A G———ED IRISHMAN IN CHARGE
Let there be no doubt about where Ireland stands: We are not interested in a backward-looking idea of sovereignty. We remain absolutely committed to the ideals of the European Union.And their ceremonial president, Michael D. Higgins, is a Labour Party hack.
Good riddance to this dot head faggot. Shame on the Irish cucks for electing this foreigner.
Varadkar ... such a proper-sounding Irish name.
Ireland’s Deep State is just rearranging the deck chairs.
Are you saying not enough people got behind them?
Good news. He’s a sick leftist creep and iirc a homo.
What a creeped out little abortion country good riddance
Humans can’t learn one simple lesson, everyone needs their own space. A country filled with their kind.
Irish are not the same as Indian, Iranian, Africans or even Americans. Ireland is for the Irish. This isn’t a Star Trek world, which btw, will never exist, and was never meant to exist. Without different countries, with different cultures, why travel at all?
The US needs to do the same, a few Hispanic, blacks, Indians, but with whites being pushed towards minority status, the country is changing for the worst. Some races need to be held down, to feel like minorities in power. If they want to be the majority, GTFO of our WASP country. You are ruining what was once a good thing. It is getting to where the politicians, who ALWAYS crave power more than service, begin to pander. Pandering is playing favorites, and America was built on EQUAL TREATMENT UNDER LAW. We seem to have forgotten that with the DIE... We need to change that dei crap to DIE, because it is killing the country.
A big red light shining on the “personal”.
Perhaps too many.
Sounds like a sound policy.
The ONLY way we take America back, is to get all foreign ownership of businesses out of the country. We don’t get Tyson foods firing Americans and replacing them with invaders. We don’t have Boeing destroyed. We shouldn’t allow government funded Universities to educate foreigners.
That education part may seem counterintuitive, but it drives up the cost for American kids, and begins bending the thought processes towards say China, and allows spying.
America should be ONLY for those who believe in the American country as founded PERIOD. Let the chinese, and others go to their schools in their homeland. We have tried the mix and match world, where there are no homogenous people in the country, we still have wars, and more of them. We did MUCH better in the 1800’s when the immigrants were forced by peer pressure, to become part of ONE Nation. Italians, Germans, Russians, Swedes, French became Americans. Even so called hispanics, were treated as caucasian. What we see now are not Hispanics, but like American Indians from S America and Mexico. The rejects, who have little skills but grunt work.
I think globalists want everywhere equally crappy. There’s no way to make an African country a well off as a European country.
Equal level exists well below white majority countries.
