His election as the first openly gay prime minister in Ireland's transition from a conservative Catholic country to an outward-looking socially liberal one was also celebrated, although his own political views are conservative. He has served as Taoiseach and Tanaiste, the deputy prime minister, in a coalition for seven years, but despite his initial fame, he has also courted scandals during a period dominated by Brexit and Covid-19. During a 2020 park tour, he was accused of disgracefully violating his own government's social distancing rules and was forced to apologise for a number of gaffes and was arrested for a suspected classified information leak, and police were forced to investigate an alleged unlawful document leak in 2021.

But with Barnett set to leave Women's Hour in just two months - who are the stalking candidates set to fill her shoes?

The make-up and hair specialists, nail technicians, and facialists all followed the stylists. They arrive from New York, Paris, and London, working frantically to make their client the epitome of glamour, not glamour, but instead beauty and 'trendiness,' rather than glamour.

EMMA COWING: Remember Emma, the beautiful soul she was

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 1, 2024
Emma Caldwell spent her remaining weeks in a hostel, which is now a block of flats. On the way to work, I drive past it most mornings. It is just around the corner from Butterbiggins Road in Glasgow, where Emma was last seen on CCTV in April 2005, just before she vanished. When they tore the old hostel down, they recalled Emma, replacing it with one of those squat, modern apartment blocks that could have been thrown up somewhere. It was where her father, William, would visit her every Wednesday, picking up her washing and dropping off clean laundry. Margaret, her mother's daughter, would come and take her every Saturday to make her a hearty meal before returning her home in the evening. It's a fact that I'm positive many children of loving parents do, that if I went down the same spiral that Emma did, these little, tender acts of love would have accomplished, as my mother and father would have done, as well.

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 3, 2023

Bill Clinton finally admitted to the Lewinsky affair 25 years ago this month on television. From the moment Monica's obsession began to THAT stained blue dress, a tantalizing minute-by-minute account of the TRUE sordid story

www.dailymail.co.uk, August 30, 2023
The US was gripped by President Clinton's affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky 25 years ago. Clinton appeared on television and finally confessed that he was "completely and entirely responsible" for the situation on August 17 1998, following several denials. In the meantime, Monica was left feeling ill and mocked on talk shows after being threatened by the Press and ridiculed on talk shows.

MAUREEN CALLAHAN: Trump isn't the first presidential abuser - and they get away with it EVERY time

www.dailymail.co.uk, May 10, 2023
CALLAHAN: What has been undeniably a victory for women everywhere is also a defeat, because there is no law or rule that says anyone found guilty of sexual assault is eligible to run for president or be president. Amazing, isn't it? Women running for office have remarkably high bars to clear, while men accused of sexual assault, assault, or rape have no problem at all. And it hasn't been so long. Everyone in Washington, D.C. and the national media knew about JFK's illicit activities, including getting a teenage White House intern drunk and sleeping her virginity on his wife's bed. Bill Clinton was successfully accused of rape by Juanita Broaddrick in 1999, but she was dismissed as a fabulist. Paula Jones was branded as poor white garbage waiting for a reward. Monica Lewinsky was smeared as a slut who went to Washington, D.C., to purchase her "presidential kneepads," a claim she later found that the Clinton war machine had probably been built up. What's wrong is a culture that believes women only when they suspect the other guy, not the one they voted for.

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS looks at last night's television: Why is there such commotion over a blink-and-you-miss-it controversy?

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 6, 2023
CHRISTOPHER STEVENS: For 40 years, Channel 4 has had sex on the brain. Now that its executives are enslaved by a self-righteous puritanism, it is time to begin discussing sex even more. The television company that brought us Naked Attraction, Sex Box, and art-porn films in a red triangle continues to promote the fact that other people's sexual preferences are nothing more than their own. So Ch4 was hardly likely to miss the chance to go muck-raking as it marked the 25th anniversary of what one contributor called the biggest news st
