THERE'S no doubt the job of being a politician is a difficult one.
I don't envy any politician having to do their job everyday, but the job of Taoiseach must be even more difficult in this day and age.
Leo Varadkar has his work cut out leading the government of this country but still seems to miff people off with his certain choices of social media posts, namely his update on the anniversary of Princess Diana passing.
Will you remember where you were today when 2 homeless people died under your watch. Start caring for the vulnerable not the over privileged

The Taoiseach, a young man interested in popular culture just as much as the rest of us is entitled of course to share his interest in topics dominating the news, however, the 38-year-old politician has left a lot of people scratching his heads with his latest video diary.
The Taoiseach shared a video based on his wishes for this Halloween, no doubt intending to gain more followers with his good spirit and fun nature but the efforts seem to have only backfired.

The unusual video didn't impress followers one bit - with issues such as Repeal and the growing homelessness and housing crisis in Ireland, many questioned how the Taoiseach could be messing around at such a critical time.
