Description

At the age of 45, Leo Varadkar decided to resign as Taoiseach. Many people wondered why.

In an extraordinarily frank interview on Free State today, Leo Varadkar talks about how finding peace in his personal life dulled his political ambition.

He speaks about his failings as a politician and a man. He explains why he believes in a united Ireland but isn’t a nationalist.

He criticises Keir Starmer’s embrace of nationalism in Britain and denies he was conned by Boris Johnson during their summit at the Wirral in 2019.
