Leo Varadkar Defends Government's Approach to Tackle Cost of Living Crisis | The Tonight Show
Kieran Cuddihy is joined by Tánasite Leo Varadkar to discuss how the cost of living is impacting both middle and lower-income families.
The Tánaiste tells Kieran that having only targeted measures would not benefit middle income families who are also "feeling the squeeze."
He defends the government's decision to introduce universal measures, including the once-off €200 credit deducted from Irish household's electricity bills earlier this year.
Kieran tells Varadkar that his "duties aren't owed to Fine Gael, your duty is owed to the State. You're the Tánaiste"

The people will have to form their own parliament and courts and refuse to co operate with this foreign junta.

The worst will happen after the rapture: soon "a loaf of bread will cost a days wages", please read Revelation 6! We are living in the E N D times, the 7year Tribulation with the world leader (Antichrist, 666) is right around the corner = GOD'S judgement upon all unbelievers! But there is hope - get saved and be rapture ready: accept JESUS CHRIST as your Lord and Savior today!!! Please study biblical end times prophecy; listen to Dr. Ron Rhodes on end times chronology.

Leo one of the WEF's guy in Ireland..
He's on a different planet or drugs.. test him we honestly have the male gemma collins in government 🤣
Current Inflation is being driven up mostly by fuel prices, If we switch to Nuclear power and give greater incentives to buy electric cars (including subsidising and prioritising lithium battery production) this problem will subside substantially over time. Also, many countries are going for the practical short term measures of taxing fossil fuel company profits to discourage extortionate profiteering.. Overall though, Society’s rejection of Nuclear power was a massive mistake, and the environment has payed dearly for it as we continue to rely on fossil fuels for our electricity…
Bank account, you live on state money!!!!
The long good bye 👋
Varadker is an enemy of Ireland. When he was Taoiseach went to Marrakesh in 2018 to sign the UN Migration Pact on behalf of Ireland, without any debate with the Irish people. This Pact legalised international MASS migration and is criminalising any criticism of same as hate speech.
The WEF PUPPY SPEAKS,
Sorry Kieran is completely wrong here and Leo is right. Why is Kieran of the impression the middle income earners (of which I am one) are not under financial pressure in the current economic crises?? We are completely rode on tax month after month after month. We get no social welfare, no allowances, nothing, just tax tax tax. I for one am glad of the €200 and I will take anything else the government offer and they need to offer more. The people who contribute least cannot continue to get more and more reward off the back of my taxes. It’s simply unfair.

There is quite a difference between "finacial pressure" and freezing to death.

So will there be an election before the revolution? Lol
DON'T WORRY. The government will soon bring back Free blocks of cheese to help with this crisis.
This government will be gone by winter due to the energy costs.
