Simon Harris on Tuesday became Ireland's new prime minister, replacing Leo Varadkar after he abruptly quit last month citing personal and political reasons. Ireland's parliament voted 88 to 69 in favour of Harris, 37, becoming "taoiseach" -- a Gaelic word for "chieftain" or "leader" pronounced "tee-shock".
