Question for those who might be in the know… is Enoch Burke part of the Castlebar Burkes?
Is he one of the infamous Burke’s?
One of the Burkes?? Fuck me they are in the papers all the time.
Yooo, new Burke case just dropped!
Why on gods green earth (irony intended) would anyone employ any one of that family ? They’re lunatics who are almost guaranteed to cause legal problems for any employer stupid enough to go near them.
I miss the days when newspapers had copy editors. This headline doesn’t make any sense.
‘they’ is a 3rd person pronoun, it’s not used to address people.
The pronouns we use to address people are 2nd person pronouns, You and Ye.
Was reading this earlier thinking it can’t be them again … 🫣
Ridiculous times.
How many other siblings are there? The companies who employ them must be praying nothing set them off
Really bad headline. Like actually just misleading.
The injunction is because he has shown up on school grounds while he has been suspended.
Such a simple thing to do and it helps the student feel accepted by someone who mentors them. you have to be so fucking petty to not respect someone’s pronouns if they ask you politely to.
> Enoch Burke
For fuck’s sake not again
The Mayo Burkes, Ireland’s shittiest family.
I hear they have a secret brother Larry Burke who just likes watching telly and a couple of pints down the local with the lads.
Hardly gets involved in any national scandals at all. Bit of a black sheep.
Why would anyone hire this lunatic in the first place? Especially to teach kids. They must have known who he was?
Just skimmed the article, but does anyone know what religion they follow?
Their names are very amish-y… and their beliefs seem cult-like.
No offence to the Amish 👍🏻
They’re like our answer to the Westboro Baptist Church with all the protesting they’re at! Wasn’t Granda Phelps a lawyer too, now that I think of it?
Burkes at it again.
Bunch of fucking lunatics.
At what point will they look at themselves and all their court cases and he like “hmmm maybe we are just c*nts”
If we all contribute €1, do you think we can get the Burkes to move to Rome?
Family of fecking loopers
Im like oh christ they sound like the……………..hahahahahah oh those Burkes why is it always them
Whoever gave him the job in the first place would want their head examined.
“Mr Burke, it is claimed objected to this, has questioned the school’s position, says that a belief system is being forced on students, and that claims that the schools request amounts to a breach of constitutional rights.”
Totally not ok unless the belief system is your personal religion. Further highlights the need to separate religion and school.
How did this guy even get hired ? School should know what he’s like
Just fuckin send the lot of them to a cartel run chunk of South America and let them protest fuckin el chapo or whoever
Ahh the Westmayo Baptist Church mini weird cult.
Enoch burke did a teaching placement at my school and everyone very quickly got wind of his homophobia and started acting very gay just to spite him it was beautiful
> The school claims that last June a service and dinner was held to mark the school’s 260th anniversary It was attended by clergy, staff, past and present pupils, parents, and board members.
> It is claimed that Mr Burke interrupted the service and said that the school’s principal, Ms Niamh McShane, should withdraw the earlier demand regarding the transitioning of the student, that he could not agree with transgenderism, and said it went against the school’s ethos and the teaching of the Church of Ireland.
> The school claims that after he spoke members of the congregation and students walked out of the school chapel.
> It is claimed that at the follow-up dinner Mr Burke did not sit at any table.
> After the meal he is alleged to have approached the Principal, and again asked her to withdraw the request regarding the student.
> The school claims that she said she would speak to Mr Burke at a appropriate time and place, and walked away from him.
> It is claimed that he continued to follow her and questioned her loudly.
> Other people stood between them to prevent the continuation of his questioning; it is further claimed.
Nutter
Excuse the stupid question but what’s a legal injunction?
when the sub teacher mentioned in this article is you 😭 and I just found out about all this in the news today
Jesus, ALL the newspapers are at this click bait shite that manages to somehow imply this is about trans rights. The school suspended him after he publicly abused the principal at a dinner celebration for its 260th anniversary. While suspended, he’s still showing up and trying to bully his way into undermining the disciplinary process. So the school did the correct thing and got an injunction against him.
