General Election 2020: Watch as Taoiseach Leo Varadkar stumbles over 'illegal drug' question on Virgin Media TV debate VMTVBigDebate

Here is the moment Leo Varadkar stumbled over a question on illegal drug consumption on last night's Virgin Media TV debate.

I’ve been extremely law-abiding since I’ve been elected to politics."
