Leo Varadkar resigns as Taoiseach

20 somethings become 30 somethings and are then more likely to own a home.

less than 10% of 20 somethings own a home in London. Any economically successful city has low home ownership rates for 20 somethings.

Worst Taoiseach in my lifetime and that’s saying something given the names on that list. The brown envelope/corruption/rogue brigades look romantic in comparison

Yes, blame it on the foreigners, What rubbish. Majority of crime in Ireland is done by Irish people.

There's places I would not want to go to in Ireland because of local scrotes not foreigners.

I think he might have promised his wife and family that's be it.

He did do a very good job navigating us through Brexit. FG had the chance to put the right person in the job many years ago but preferred LV because at the time there was kudos in having an "out" homosexual male as the leader, due to some weird progressive thing...

Gas thing is, those "in the know" know that he wasn't the first gay leader our country had.

Anyway if I was SiCo I wouldn't want the job, ship is sinking fast.

My daughter recently graduated with an IT related degree and she hasn't had even the whiff of a job, and that's with honours and being the top student. Even the company she interned for and which said she 'overachieved' doesn't want her because they only have senior positions and interns.

I just wish it was Eamon effing Ryan going instead.

Apart from the resignation the best thing about today is Varadkar revealing his cowardice. He ran away from three elections and judgment on his track record. He abandoned his own party literally weeks before the first set of these elections and put himself first - a selfish narcissist to the very end.

When you look at the small group of senior ministers behind him from whom his successor will be chosen, you suddenly realise how far they’ve fallen.

They are practically in a confidence and supply agreement with this government. The reason SF are losing votes is that they are trying to appeal to FF as possible Government partners and to this they have supported everything that this government have done including voting Yes/Yes in that abomination of a referendum. Now all SF are is a copy of FF and FG.

Yes, but London has a population of nearly 9 million, several international airports, an underground ... It's like comparing Google to Bord Na Mona. Dublin has been failed for a small city in a supposedly very wealthy country.

1980 was 44 years ago. Ya its great the place has improved since then like what was mentioned above but to be using it to try and counter act the issues people are angry over now is feckin laughable.

Richest we've ever been on paper if the other EU nations played hard and fast about our tax haven status, we'd know just exactly how rich we are.

Immigration not an issue? Don't just try and bat it away claiming it's only the few nutters on tik tok, your everyday Joe soap is sick of seeing mass amounts of piss takers coming in who shouldn't be here. Not only that but lovely hotels, food, medical card all paid for and then the best part is they kept letting them now we essentially have shanty towns.

Not only that but by continually letting them it's basically put any little housing progress up in smoke as we all know unless a miracle happens they'll all get to stay and need housing eventually.

Circa 70% of our under 35s living at home I'm sure they'll definitely be thinking with a happy smile at least it isn't the 1980s. FG deserve to get in, while they glance across at the 200 unit new build that's just been bought by yet another vulture fund.

IT has suffered a small regression in jobs, but still plenty of roles in Dublin especially.

Look forward to her and all the SD clowns losing their seats.

And with a population of over 9 million comes almost twice as many homes in the city as there are in the whole of ireland...

And still, less than 1 in 10 20 somethings owns a home there.
