The Rest Is Politics: Leading

19: Leo Varadkar: Ireland's Taoiseach on NATO, China, and Joe Biden


Listen Later

How does the Irish Taoiseach feel about Brexit? Would Leo Varadkar consider himself a Tory in the English parliamentary system? Does Ireland have a problem with alcohol?


Leo Varadkar speaks to Rory and Alastair about all this, plus his childhood in Dublin, juggling social liberalism with economic conservatism, and the future of AI in healthcare.
