Quick Glance: Leo Varadkar: A Populist Who Struggled with Real People
  • In May 2002, a young party activist analyzed the defeat of Fine Gael under Michael Noonan, emphasizing that none of the former leaders were the expected messiah for the party.

  • Leo Varadkar's political legacy comprises valuable contributions, but he was never seen as a savior of the party. His ability to navigate contradictions made him a skilled politician, but he ultimately realized he couldn't balance on the political tightrope indefinitely.

  • Varadkar was described as a politician who straddled conservatism and an increasingly progressive society. Despite his rapid rise in politics and popularity during crises, he struggled to address long-term challenges in areas like healthcare and housing.

  • His popularity peaked during the Brexit crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic, where he was seen as a unifying and authoritative leader. However, he failed to effectively tackle long-term structural issues in Ireland, especially in healthcare and housing, as his neoliberal views did not offer compelling solutions.

Quick Glance: ANC 'still discussing' no-confidence motion in Mapisa-Nqakula
  • The ANC at Luthuli House has not yet decided whether it will support or oppose a motion of no confidence against National Assembly speaker Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula. However, the parliamentary chief whip Pemmy Majodina pledged full caucus support.

  • The Democratic Alliance (DA) brought a motion of no confidence against Mapisa-Nqakula over corruption allegations. ANC spokesperson Mahlengi Bhengu-Motsiri stated that the party was still discussing the matter and had not made a decision.

  • After news broke that Mapisa-Nqakula was under investigation for alleged corruption and money laundering, Gwarube announced that she would support the motion and pushed for it to be addressed and debated urgently.

  • Gwarube wrote to all parties in parliament to request support for the motion. She emphasized that the parliamentary rules were clear and the removal of a speaker or deputy speaker should be considered urgently.

Quick Glance: Speaker Accused of Political Decision on Gaza Vote
  • Commons Speaker Lindsay Hoyle faces backlash for selecting both Labour and government amendments to the SNP's Gaza ceasefire motion.

  • Criticism arises over the perceived 'overtly political decision' by Hoyle, amid concerns of a rebellion if Labour's amendment was not chosen.

  • Safety concerns were a key factor in Hoyle's decision to allow for a wide debate in the Commons by accepting both Labour and government amendments.

  • The SNP plans to vote for the Labour amendment despite considering it 'deficient', aiming to increase the chances of a parliamentary vote for an immediate ceasefire.
