    Being gay has NOTHING to do with his job. It was a great time to come out tho, when the hospital’s are having some of the WORST problem’s they ever had. Disgusting individual, sits there laughing on radio while people dyeing in pain on his watch.

    Yet another cheesy write up on Mr Varadkar by the Journal. The fact that he is in over his head on his day job & has to date delivered next to nothing concerning the health service is of no concern but when he pretends to be a dj for one hour is newsworthy somehow. We know the truth – he’s a second rate dj & a third rate minister for health.

    ‘Actually, knowing Leo…’ That line alone nearly brought my breakfast back up.

    Varadkar’s spinmeisters must be thrilled. Another glowing article about cool, hip Leo. The health system on its knees? Nah, who wants to read about that. Toe-curling and nauseating stuff.
