"Thanks so much to all staff in Holles Street. I will now take paternity leave for a few weeks to get to know this new little man." In a previous social media post, Minister Harris said that Tánaiste Leo Varadkar will be taking on his department's business during his two-week paternity leave, while Minister of State for Skills and Further Education Niall Collins will be carrying out "day-to-day work" in the department.
Well done wife
We got a dog two weeks ago, glad to say she is settling in very well
Why are RTE so gleeful about this, has he promised them funding or an increase in the licence fee?
Congratulations to you and your good lady wife !! You deserve some bonding and relaxing.🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂
Does 'wife' have a name Please show some respect.
Quelle surprise, some sour comments from some people. The same people wouldn't lift a finger to help someone else if they were on fire. They'd rather complain that nobody is doing anything about it 🙄
Congrats on the birth, but not sure how it’s fair that fathers/partners in some areas of the country are only allowed in to visit their partner/wife and new baby for 2 hours a day. No doubt you were there for the whole thing. bettermaternitycare
Welcome CillianCFitzge2 😅
And literally, minutes before it's born, it's not s baby and with your help it can be murdered 😡
Yay politicians babies are more important than anyone else's. Wonder where we got that culture from?
This is not news
Congratulations SimonHarrisTD on the birth of your son. There is a need of a major reform of our political system in regards to Maternity leave and Parental leave for Mothers and Fathers in order to attract more people into politics. Two weeks parental leave is too short
My cat had kittens 😸 😍
Simon Harris is one of if not the most incompetent politician to ever be in government, failure after failure, scandal after scandal, but yet still in office, still treated like a celebrity, only in Ireland....
Who leaked that news…🤔
Congrats SimonHarrisTD we have a Cillian also great kid but shit unlucky playing rugby. Just saying
Who cares?
Simon Harris shouting who's your Daddy in that squeaky voice, wonder who the wife was thinking of.
I would congratulate him but he's blocked me 🤣
Poor child, having a weasel of a Dad.
Congrats does that mean you get paternity leave?
They use rte as their public messaging system for family announcements. This is not news anyone has interest in, stop “reporting” these pointless tid bits
Cillian when he is 21 will look back on what is Dad has done and say “Father what about all those people on housing lists ,what have you done ,Father 😌 “
If you want to make news RTÉ then, Congratulations to all Mothers and Fathers who had a baby today!
Congratulations such wonderful news
So the 'leave our families out of it' runs a bit hot and cold.
Congratulations on new baby. So lucky to be born into a secure home. (Imagine it it was a homeless hub he was born into..?)
His wife could have aborted the baby, so it was her choice to have it. So can we not pay them childcare payments?
Congratulations-only a couple of decades before he is forced to immigrate
Congratulations 🥳🎉🎉 SimonHarrisTD and Caoimhe
Whats this got to do with national news?
This is not news!!!!
Welcome to your new baby congratulations
Congratulations SimonHarrisTD and family 😊
And what a world its coming into!!
Poor Cillian. Never had a chance.
Who gives a fine fuck!
And his privileged life is already mapped out, the best schools, universities, a good job courtesy of dad’s cronies, a seat in the Dail, a couple of lucrative positions on boards then retirement on a cluster of huge pensions. Meanwhile, 99% of the population will struggle
Delighted for them 😊
Congratulations SimonHarrisTD on birth of your baby boy. Welcome to a mad world Baby Cillian. 👶.🍼🍼
Baby Gillian was already in the World 9 months ago, in that 9 months so so many have been killed...
Congratulations on your newborn baby!!
Congratulations, Minister SimonHarrisTD, Caoimhe, and Saoirse.
