Simon Harris to become Ireland’s youngest prime minister | Ireland

Simon Harris will become Ireland’s youngest prime minister after the leadership race in his Fine Gael party ended without any other candidates coming forward. The leadership became vacant after the taoiseach, Leo Varadkar, announced his surprise resignation “for personal and political reasons” last week. Harris, 37, the higher education minister, was the only candidate when nominations closed at 1pm on Sunday, but he will not become taoiseach until 9 April when the Irish parliament, the Dáil, resumes after its Easter break. He outlined his leadership priorities on Sunday at a selection convention in Athlone, County Westmeath, to choose party candidates for the European parliament elections in June. Harris said he wanted the centre-right Fine Gael – which governs with fellow conservatives Fianna Fáil and the Green party – to revert to core values including making work pay, being tough on law and order and supporting farmers. “Fine Gael stands for supporting businesses, especially small businesses the length and breadth of this country. Fine Gael stands for making work pay, for making sure we value work …

Simon Harris became Ireland’s prime minister in waiting on Sunday after he was elected unopposed to succeed Leo Varadkar as leader of the governing Fine Gael party. Issued on: 24/03/2024 – 18:11 2 min Harris, a 37-year-old minister best known for helping steer the country’s initial response to COVID-19, will set out some of his priorities to party members at an event in the Irish midlands town of Athlone on Sunday. He will then be voted in as Ireland’s youngest ever prime minister when parliament next sits on April 9 thanks to support from Fine Gael’s coalition partners. Harris will have no more than a year to save the coalition from defeat at parliamentary elections. Polls for the last three years have put Sinn Fein, a left-wing party that backs unification with Northern Ireland, a British province, as the favourite to head the next government. However, two more polls on Sunday confirmed a recent trend of support for Sinn Fein dropping off highs of 12-18 months ago, though they again broadly showed smaller parties and independent candidates as the beneficiaries …
