Watch: Simon Harris hoisted in the air in celebration after re-election to Dáil

Watch the moment Irish premier Simon Harris was re-elected to the Dáil, the lower house of Ireland’s parliament, securing his position as a Teachta Dála (TD) for Wicklow on the first count on Saturday, 30 November.

The outgoing Taoiseach was joined by his wife, Caoimhe, his parents, sister Gemma, and his political team at the count centre in Greystones, County Wicklow, following his successful re-election.

Counting will resume later in the Irish general election as the focus intensifies on the potential make-up of the next coalition government.
