TAOISEACH LEO VARADKAR has said there are no plans for an early election, stating that he plans to lead his party into the next general election and form a government.
Varadkar has lost some of his key supporters in the party in recent months, with some announcing that they are stepping away from politics and won’t be seeking re-election. “It is not something I have given consideration to. I’m enormously privileged to lead this government, to be somebody who’s been able to help hold the office of the Taoiseach twice, and very much focused on the job,” he said.
Helping people deal with the cost of living and deal with inflation which is “biting very hard” is also a priority for Varadkar, he said.Local elections Turning to elections, does Varadkar feel the pressure to have a good day at next year’s local elections? After Fianna Fáil’s performance in the last local elections, most commentators predicted that that they would win the general election, he said.
