Irski premijer Micheal Martin podnio je u subotu ujutro ostavku, a na dužnosti će ga zamijeniti Leo Varadkar. Varadkar će biti potvrđen za premijera drugi put u svojoj karijeri na posebnoj sjednici irskog parlamenta kasnije tijekom dana.

Vođa liberalne stranke Fine Gael zamijenit će demokršćanina Martina, vođu stranke Fianna Fail, po koalicijskom dogovoru iz 2020. godine.

Martin je predao ostavku irskom predsjedniku Michaelu D. Higginsu u njegovoj rezidenciji u Dublinu.

Dogovor iz 2020. godine

Fianna Fail i Fine Gael dogovorili su se nakon izbora 2020. da će dijeliti vlast sa Zelenom strankom. Fianna Fail je osvojio 38 zastupničkih mjesta, pojedinačno najviše od svih stranaka.

Socijalistička republikanska stranka Sinn Fein, koja je osvojila 37 mjesta i najviše prvih preferencijalnih glasova, optužuje dvije glavne suparničke stranke da su se urotile protiv nje kako bi je istisnule iz vlasti i kontinuirano kritizira vladu kao glavna oporbena stranka.
