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.

Quick Glance: Conor McGregor's Road House Remake Success Leads to Fast & Furious Franchise Speculation
- The success of the Road House remake indicates that Conor McGregor should be considered for a $7 billion action franchise. Despite initial doubts from viewers and critics, the remake of Road House is receiving positive feedback, demonstrating that remakes of cult classics can sometimes be highly successful. In addition to being recognized for certain changes in the story from the original, the film is also praised for its well-executed action sequences.
- Throughout his UFC career, Conor McGregor has amassed a substantial fortune. While his character Knox in Road House is portrayed as somewhat one-dimensional, McGregor brings sufficient intensity and energy to the role, positioning him as a formidable antagonist against Gyllenhaal's nearly invincible Dalton.
- Having proven his ability to portray convincing movie villains, the question arises whether Conor McGregor would fit well into the Fast & Furious franchise. If McGregor were to be cast in Fast & Furious 11, audiences could potentially witness an exciting confrontation between former UFC and WWE stars, offering a thrilling prospect.
- Conor McGregor would not be the initial UFC fighter to feature in the Fast & Furious franchise. Preceding him, UFC Hall of Famer Ronda Rousey appeared in Furious 7 as a bodyguard. With numerous former MMA fighters appearing in the Fast & Furious movies, McGregor's potential involvement post Road House could continue the trend and provide Fast & Furious 11 with a much-needed unique yet captivating villain.

Quick Glance: Bishop's Premonition and Stabbing Incident
- A well-known Sydney bishop, stabbed during a sermon, had been warned of a potential attack on his life in recent weeks.
- The attack on Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel, allegedly by a 15-year-old, occurred at the Christ the Good Shepherd Church in Wakeley on Monday night following a sermon where the bishop mentioned that his death was imminent.
- The bishop clarified that his potential passing would not be an attempt to escape or avoid life, but rather a conscious desire to be with God.
- A 15-year-old boy was arrested after the attack on the bishop and three other men during a service at an Assyrian Orthodox church in Sydney's southwest. The bishop was taken to the hospital with multiple stab wounds and is currently in stable condition.
