Who is Ireland’s incoming Taoiseach and why did Varadkar resign?
Manage episode 409975508 series 2818897
In this political update, Naomi and Tim sum up the background of the incoming new Taoiseach Simon Harris and discuss the sudden resignation of Leo Varadkar and the different factors behind it.
One of them was Ireland's two recent referendums aimed at changing some of the more Catholic-influenced conservative language in the 1937 constitution, which ended in a resounding defeat for the government. What were the proposed changes and why were they rejected by the public?
Finally, we look ahead to the bonanza of elections that are due in the coming year, and how the different parties sit in the polls.
