Ireland's Varadkar unexpectedly quits as PM.
Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar has announced his resignation as Taoiseach (Prime Minister) and leader of Fine Gael. Varadkar, who has been in office since 2017, described his time as leader as "the most fulfilling time" of his life. His resignation comes after two recent referendum defeats for the coalition government. Varadkar will remain as Taoiseach until a new leader is chosen by the party.
