Simon Harris installed as Ireland's new prime minister, country's youngest-ever leader
pbs.org/newshour/world/simon-harris-installed-as-irelands-new-prime-minister-countrys-youngest-ever-leader
Quick Glance: Simon Harris Becomes Ireland's Youngest Prime Minister
- Simon Harris has been officially sworn in as Ireland's youngest prime minister, succeeding Leo Varadkar who abruptly stepped down last month. Harris, 37, took the helm of the ruling Fine Gael party but faces challenges as the party trails behind Sinn Fein in polls.
- A rapid riser in Ireland's political hierarchy, Harris has made a name for himself as Health Minister and most recently as Minister for Higher Education and Science. His political identity as a young politician has been marked by both supporters and critics, particularly standing out with younger voters and on social media platforms like TikTok.
- Varadkar's government grappled with challenges such as housing crisis and increasing immigration numbers. Harris inherits a tough political landscape, especially with upcoming elections until March 2025. The political landscape in Ireland has shifted, with Sinn Fein emerging as a rising political force, leading to a shift in the traditional party landscape.
- While Harris sees the idea of a potential reunification of Ireland as a legitimate aspiration, his focus remains on current challenges like housing crisis, rising cost of living, and immigration. Despite political changes and discussions about potential reunification, Ireland's future remains uncertain and complex.
