If you’re a devoted fan of An Taoiseach (or just so happen to follow him on Twitter) then you’ll know that every week, Leo Varadkar publishes a ‘weekly message’ video to his social media channels.
He chats about current affairs that have occurred during the week and generally just tries his best to come across as a competent and busy leader. Good effort Leo.
His video this week though is getting him absolutely ripped out of it… Talking about the topical Brexit negotiations, Twitter users were quick to point out that the setting for the video looked a bit odd.
Is it the giant lamp? Is it the MASSIVE chair? Why TF does Leo look like a full on Leprechaun?

People are responding with some serious burns
That massive lamp makes you look tiny. You need a tiny lamp to make you look massive for Brexit negotiations

This is not helping the “everyone in Ireland is a leprechaun” stereotype

We just want to know who thought it was a good idea to have those freakishly large props there? Bizarre.
