WATCH: Enda on changing his mind, not taking himself seriously and running for president...

The Taoiseach was in with TheJournal.ie to talk the economy, the referendum, his salary and his future.

TAOISEACH ENDA KENNY visited TheJournal.ie‘s offices yesterday morning for his first one-on-one interview with us since he took office four years ago.

Needless to say, there was a lot to discuss.

Enda chocolates TheJournal.ie TheJournal.ie

We’ve already shown you what he’s had to say about opposition leaders’ challenging him to a live TV debate and whether he’s worth his salary.

Now you can watch the full, extended interview with Enda Kenny below. Amongst other things, he discusses…

  • Why the polls aren’t as good for the government as the economic numbers are
  • His three priorities between now and the next election
  • Why he changed his mind on same-sex marriage
  • Whether he is the most liberal Taoiseach in the history of the State
  • Whether he’ll serve a full second term if re-elected next year…

… and we also asked if he’ll ever run for president. Watch:
