And I mean, I think just in terms of what you were asking Lucinda about, you know, is Leo going to be the new hallmark of a young Taoiseach walking away?
This is the same Leo Varadkar who actually, you know, Fergus mentioned Gareth Fitzgerald.
Leo said something about Fitzgerald writing boring articles.
Yeah.
And I mean, this was something that a conversation that was already kind of being had in government buildings prior to this Path to Power podcast last week.

Not really.
And people were kind of saying, you know, is this, you know, Leo has to call him in the Sunday Times occasionally, he's doing podcasts, he's doing media interviews to a lesser extent, but he's getting into fights with people on Twitter.

I surely am.
Yeah.
