Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

It is very hard to be sure of things at this time. One thing I am sure of is that Christmas will not be cancelled. It will still be a public holiday. It will still be a religious festival. Christmas mass will still be said. Santa will still arrive and put presents under the tree. I am sure that families will still be able to meet up. It just might not be the Christmas that we are used to in terms of having parties and doing other things that we would like to do.
