.
The school said Burke had been asked by the school to address the student by a different name and use the pronoun"they" rather than"he" or"she". He continued to attend for his timetabled hours, even after the High Court granted an injunction directing him not to do so. Lawyers for Wilson's Hospital School said Burke had been notified on 24 August that he was being suspended on pay, pending the outcome of disciplinary proceedings against him.
Burke, who represented himself in court, said he was a teacher and did not want to go to prison. He wanted to be in his classroom, he said, and he told the judge he loved his students, and the subjects he taught - German, history, politics and debating. He said he could not do this. It was against his Christian belief, contrary to scriptures, and contrary to the ethos of the school, the Church of Ireland and the teaching of all major churches, he said.
Burke said he respected the law and the courts system and as a politics teacher he had taught his students to respect the law.
This is just silly! The man has the same rights as the child has…but socio-political hegemony is at work! The hypocritical *tolerance* which’s aim to support the rights of one in the same breath denies such for the other.
Teacher’s rights to work without harassment are clearly violated! Used to be we would say about a situation like this:”work it out, or get over it!” We worked out our disagreements without fear of jail time or missed work. Btw, respect for elders has been completely ignored! 😕
The teachers rights are violated. The bible does not have a 3rd gender in it's teachings. This teacher follows and believes in the teachings of the bible, which are from a higher source than a high court.
Justice for Burke. The student will be served with karma
this generation of kids are absolutely disgusting
Now, Ireland seems to me like some kind of poor subject of an idiotic imperialism that confuses freedom of expression with the obligation to be as they say.
It's great that human stupidity also has a first class seat among the blond fools of ireland and all that area of people who strut like they're part of some first world of filth.
Butterfly and wheel.
This was not worthy of jail time . What an upside down world we live in .
I mean this makes sense. Europe is where the third Reich was born, always knew they'd fall back into old habits. Locking people up for non threatening words is some hardcore gestapo shit.
La ideología woke es lo más repugnante que he visto en mi vida.
The fascism, today, have a non binary pronoum.
Ridiculous governmental overreach! The man is entitled to his religious beliefs and to exercise them. This is nothing but discrimination and religious persecution!
I think Mr. Burke is a hero for standing up for his Christian beliefs!
Who the f cares. I can guarantee that thing is getting bullied twice as much now. Also would like to say touch grass to the snowflakes in the comments. You give real gays and lesbians a bad name. And when you say no well you haven't looked closely at the comments enough to see
There are 2 genders, male and female. If a student is confused about what they are they shouldn't expect others to indulge in their confusion. If I have to interact with a man that thinks he is a women I still address him as a male because I'm not confused and won't pretend to be
Prison, seriously? Seriously Ridiculous
In fact this nonsense is child abuse. Many tom-boy girls. Turned out female. You're not protecting your children. So its child abuse
There is no they/ them pronoun get a grip already. It's mental illness if you think there is anything but male it female. This isn't what trans is. Just stop. You're hurting real transitions.
Woke dictatorship
Boy and girl, man and woman, his and hers Using today's scientific expansions doesn't turn you into the opposite. Even if you think so that doesn't mean we all have to play along with your fantasy.
These are the WEF’s Agenda30 Global Elites’s mandates and they are so powerful that they have infiltrated every country and government’s worldwide. MAKE NO MISTAKE, this is just the beginning of their UN Tyrannical Regime FEMA Camps, Mask 😷 Mandates OperationLockStepScenario
That teacher should be allowed to paddle the offended boy/girl with a stick.
Another Person Gets SCREWED by the COMMUNISM OF THE ONE WORLD GOVT.!
That's Soooo wrong!! It gets me sick
Este tío es un loco y no un profesor que se cree Dios
Unbelievable. The world has turned upside down. Ireland remains a silly country, not to be taken seriously
Verguenza
There is a real sickness overtaking this world when people are forced to call people 'They'.
Enough with the pronoun crap already! You cannot force somebody to change their whole understanding of life because of social media, which is all it is. We are literally born male & female for a reason & just because you want to dress up as the opposite sex doesn't mean you are.
Jeez I thought Ireland was the calm in the storm.. you've gone nuts... I wonder if you treat murderers and ra**sts the same way...
V drastic to send him to prison when repeat offenders who put people at risk walk the streets freely
What a fuckin joke.
And I thought just the U.S. was getting really f'd up ... more BS every day all over the world. Glad I'm older than dirt.
Religious beliefs particularly of major religions should always be accommodated over this newfangled garbage silliness with the pronouns that's going on for no good reason other than to harrass, opress and intimidate the rest of us. And it's messing up language.
Now you know why Jordan Pererson was banned from twitter - he was telling the truth. He warned that being jailed for not using “proper pronouns” would happen.
Compelled speech is a violation of basic human rights of freedom of religion and free speech.
As a Christ follower who strongly opposes this pronoun nonsense, it appears to be a lot more then just refusing to refer to someone in their desired pronoun. He can disagree, but forcing his presence when demanded not to, we’ll, they may be wrong but it’s their school 🤷🏻♂️
Porqué castigar por sus creencias al profesor..él tiene tambien derechos
So some confused kid ruins the career of a teacher and gets applause for it? What a great society you all pretend to be.
Ireland has gone mental!!!!
What a Dumb rock its paid leave 😂 go to the beach or take a trip or something 😂 Hell pick up 2nd job your already getting paid for the 1st 🤔🤣
F.u.c.k queer and gender ideology. F.u.c.k LGBTIQ+ LOBBIES
Good!
This is scary as hell. Compelled speech is wrong and against everything a free society is. These people are evil.
This is a sad sad world....
The commies won't stop until we're all in cabbage lines.
While I do think he has a right to his religious beliefs he wasn't jailed because of them. He should remember to obey the law. If he was told to leave and he's not doing anything to actively atm save someone's life and he can and provide for himself then he's just being stubborn.
Gender pronouns are stupid. The fact that they want to force people what to say is a gross violation of any constitution which founded western world democracy. The world has gone insane with woke ideology. It's toxic and disgusting.
He's delighted with this development. Anyone who's called Enoch is bound to be looking for attention. Sad sap.
FreeEnoch freeenochburke
This man has fucking balls! He is more courageous than a thousand men. I only wish to be half a man he is. Tremendous inspiration and respect.
ANSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!!! Why is this stupid stuff even acknowledged? They’re LYING TO OUR KIDS and jailing or firing anyone who speaks the truth!!! These parents should be ashamed!!
This is Communism at work. Don't kid yourself. This is just another attack on God fearing people.
this is what it's like living in a country without free speech
That teacher shouldn't be in jail because that student has a mental disability
Good for him to stand up to this insanity. What has this world come to? It's time to buck this b.s. trend.
Stupid paganism....
Ireland has lost its commonsense no one can change sex
I'm going to have to side with the teacher in this case. Sorry but forcing a teacher to say a certain thing is not liberty in my opinion.
When do we have rights this pronoun crap has gotten way out of line the masses shouldn't have to bow down especially to crap the other side don't and can't explain your so sensitive stay at home. I support this teacher
Such a shame...the teacher belief doesn't count against the evil which the bible teach.
free him
OMG!!! WHY is society so hell bent on labeling someone solely based on their reproductive organs? They should have been fired and not just suspended with pay. That only 'teaches' them that they get to sit at home and get paid for it.
It's the head who should be in court for playing along with a dishonest scientifically illiterate child damaging ideology.
Thanks to heroes like teacher Enoch Burke Ireland has a chance to wake up from a rainbow amok. Glory to the heroes!
This is stupid. How u get into trouble for using the wrong 'pronouns?' I swear the LGBT community is soft as hell
So now the kids are in charge. Wake up world!!!
there are only two genders, the rest should be treated by a psychiatrist
Judging by the comments here a lot of people is very happy because a guy lost his job and went to jail for not saying something
I really hope this man is a Christian but our beliefs shouldn't be the issue the issue is you can't just go along with everything kids even teens say teachers should not be forced to encourage any of the things I hear about in schools these days it's not helping any of the kids
This is getting so out of hand walk like a duck quacks like a duck must be a whale
He should sue the Dept of Education.
What a fkn joke 😐
All the pedos and fags here are in their element by the sound of the comments
Of course. Everyone has rights except Christians. People who are confused about their gender are sick and need treatment, instead of trying to teach all other children that this is a natural condition.
There goes Freedom of Speech
So now an Irish Catholic is sent to prison for not calling Timmy, Sally?
JUST TRY & WORK THAT OUT, ANYONE WITH HALF A BRAIN 🧠 CAN SEE WHICH AGENDA THEY’RE PUSHING, THE SATANIC GENDER AGENDA, BECAUSE CLEARLY IT’S OKAY TO BE A PEDOPHILE, BUT NOT OKAY TO REFUSE TO CALL A BOY A GIRL BECAUSE HE IDENTIFIES AS A GIRL
_Ragaireacht lmao
Hey student! If you're reading this, you're still a boy, a dude, a 'he'. You always will be and there's nothing that will ever change this. Neither the woke mob, nor this clown judge, the surgeon cutting off your dick or this ridiculous school administration. 😀
I would never use a pronoun when talking to any gay trans or whatever. They are an abomination of humans
This is absolute craziness. Seriously. Crazy.
Is he a black belt in tae kwon do or many guards does a school teacher need.Pure theatrics and utterly ridiculous
What a fuckin pathetic joke this kip has become😡😡😡😡
'res non verba' - 'deeds, not words' - the school motto. Ironic that he is being punished for actually living up to the school motto. What happened to Ireland?
This has made news all over the world, Ireland and their urgency to be as woke as possible have made us a laughing stock and a poster country for absolute nonsense and a joke of a justice system. istandwithEnochBurke
No cuffs I like it
A good man
That more stuff I see like this the more I don't want the LGBT ppl around my family and I 100% wouldn't let a trans person use the same changing room as my child.
That this man ends up in jail is due to Ireland adopting the demented idiocies of American Cultural Imperialism.
He was sent to prison for saying no to an authoritarian dogma.
The school should be able to dismiss him now for not complying with their disciplinary procedures. Imagine if a child was suspended during an investigation and just said sod that and continued to show up to class. He should have let the school investigate in his absence.
Hopefully he will hook up with Graham Dwyer and Joe O Reilly. His family most be so proud
This is why the world is growing tired of the tolerant mob.
Law needs to be just, and seen to be just. Law is not for the whimsical or fanciful . Law is for all , to be used without prejudice . Newkekarmy Ree. 6/9/22.
If a woman sterilises herself, stuffs her face full of hormones, mutilates her body by butchering her breasts, has a piece of meat grafted on over her womb, grows a few whiskers over her top lip, and demands people call her a 'he', she'll still won't be a woman.
Sounds like a full-on mental illness problem this guy has. I know there’s religious beliefs at play - but he’s abusive. aggressive, and contemptible. The court should request a mental screening, if that can legally be done in Ireland.
6 guards escorting him out of the court! U wouldn’t have that many in a town centre on a Saturday night
Haven’t the inmates in mount joy suffered enough?
About time someone stood up to this madness! He can only get 180 days max anyways
Disgraceful decision! This poor man being vilified over his beliefs.
No to fajnie. R.I.P. Irlandio...
I hope he likes Clonakilty.
Stand strong Enoch we have your back. Canadian Clinical Psychologist Dr.Jordan Peterson supports your right to refuse to use cretinous pronouns or to bow to Gay culture. It's the parents of the said 'boy'/'girl' who should be prosecuted for child abuse.
That is awful. It’s put Trans rights back in the dark ages.
Sick people agreeing to this they or z bs
Absolutely disgusting he's jailedits a man or woman ...my girl wont be called Z they or be a tree what aloud bs..shame any teacher agreeing to this bs..
This stems from america and the pinkos and demoratts again
Independent_ie take note of real journalism.
Ireland is a circus, run by clowns.
Proper patriotic hero
Right on, I pretty sick of these/them/they/those/he/him/her/she/it fukkin running circles around spineless adults. You have a legal name on your passport, end of this pronoun crapp
Is that true, Minister for Justice? HMcEntee DeptJusticeIRL
Load of 💩
Ireland is becoming Clown World Central 🤡
He bullied the child first, now wants to hold his head up high for his Christian beliefs.
They must have been right plonkers to employ one of the Burke brood in the first place.
Society and morale values are flowing down the river as the he/she gender that has existed since time began is seen as abnormal. It's a fucked up world right now.
Throw away the key!
Farcical really
As a teacher, our students always come first. Whether you believe or not in this ruling, remember that when we step into a classroom we take on a responsibility to those we teach regardless of gender or nationality. our job is to nurture and provide moral and academic guidance.
hes a hero, fair play to him for standing up to the fascist lgbtqrst nasis
A holy man come to save us and show us the path to eternal redemption. Repent!
Are the media after this guy because he stood up for what he believes in .. which most of the media don’t agree with
It's absurd and ridiculous that a child making up pronouns can result in a series of events that ends with a teacher being jailed.
Absolute nonsense
Lolllllll
VaushV could make for an interesting stream segment
Burke is controlled opposition just like John McGuirk (Gript funded by Soros), Niall McConnell (allied with Freemason founded Protestant groups) and Dee Wall (in with the Gardai).
micheal_olainn If he was A Muslim practicing his Islamic beliefs in Woke Ireland this just wouldn’t happen, the underlying truth is that there is an anti Christian agenda and he is an easy scapegoat because people of a Christian belief system don’t cut peoples heads off for challenging them.
Mr Burke, pictured with mother in happier times😂😂
Given multiple opportunities to remove the contempt of the order, actively chose prison for a day. Pantomime nonsense.
While rapists and murderers roam the streets freely
That school and board of management should be ashamed of themselves.
He has alright 🙄
Absolute shame, where is the State going to end up.
I haven't followed this but the fact that he's off to jail must mean it's very serious 🤔
The BullyPowers of the HighCourt need to be removed forthwith. Is a SchoolPrincipal anExpert onChild GenderChange? SoWHY has the high court taken the side of theSchool Principal who isNOT an expert on the dangers of Child Gender Change.The HighCourt is in Contempt of ChildSafety
Meanwhile, the sick old boy from the south of the city who repeatedly raped his child WAS NOT BEING SENT TO JAIL AT ALL WERE IT NOT FOR THE PUBLIC. Something SERIOUSLY WRONG with the Judgment Abilities of Judges.
He'll be alright , he has a spaceship booked to break him out on Tuesday
This case PROVES that a School is WELL ABLE TO take SIMILAR ACTION against cases of Bullying by teachers of other teachers, or of students, and that NO INSTITUTION involving children baulks at taking IMMEDIATE ACTION against SERIOUS CRIMES such as child sex abuse🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Waist of time and tax payers money leave him off
Shame on those who support this,parents and anyone else alike. The so called protected class. I support Enoch
If only our judges were so quick to jail the serious criminals, multiple offenders etc
Police state
All because of “they” “he” and “she”. We can’t get 5 guards when there’s violence around
Changing his name to Eunuch in the morning hopefully...🤔😉😂
We gota stop this trans nonsense it’s getting out of control.
And meanwhile there are violent criminals on our streets out on bail having committed dozens of crimes and reoffending! A joke! The judges should be locked up!
Fresh meat for the joy. They, them, those won't mind what he calls them as long as he calls them Daddy......
Hope they keep him
Reckon he could be a Eunuch when he comes out.... Get it? .. A double whammy there... 😂 😂 😂
The amount of teachers I know that hate the bs pronoun teaching they’ve to go trough to keep a roof over their head is ridiculous. There’s not one person I know agrees with it either but these images are how the fear of disobedience is forcing this shite upon us! bonkers
Doesn't matter what your intentions are, no matter how noble or selfish, the court is basically like your mammy. If she says no, she fucking MEANS no.
Breach of court order , a better action would have been protesting outside school on their clear endorsement that it’s ok to affirm mental disorders as perfectly ok. The parents are not parents there enablers.
Thoughts and prayers to whoever has to share a cell with that sanctimonious puke
at least rte isn’t using clickbait headlines
The world is a very strange place..worse its getting
God bless him, voluntarily going to Mountjoy because of some idiotic crusade against an innocent student. Maybe he'll surprise us and reappear in the schoolyard in three days. All the tradcaths in the comments would have their first miracle 🙏
Where is the Teachers union now when they’re needed
Free speech and religious freedom taken away by Maoist woke laws. 🏳️⚧️ 🇨🇳
Woke nonsense. He’s entitled to his view and you don’t call a man they !
Finally we get to see Irish courts removing dangerous criminals from the streets 🤷♂️
Behind this circus is a child, likely vulnerable, parents doing their best out of love, compassion (& worry) as is the school & all Burke wants is to have the opportunity to publicly do the one thing to a child bound to cause severe distress as part of his personal culture war.
For the best, his obsession with being near children in the school despite a court order raises alot of worry about his intentions.
All Mr Burke has to do to purge his contempt is to undertake not to access school grounds as set out in the injunction pending the outcome of the school disciplinary procedure for his alleged conduct at the school event in June last (NOT FOR REFUSING TO USE PRONOUNS).
The mother is to blame for bucking up all these kids! The mother should be jailed
What’s this world coming to 🤔
Absolutely insane!
There was no English spoken in the first century. It didn’t exist as a language so don’t think “Jesus “would care if he used they/them.What a yolk.
DWPscumbags He should be praised not jailed 🙄
Hope he likes Porridge 🥣
This Leo Varadkar & FG doing, time to destroy FG wipe them completely from irish society, have only irish people run for office not imports
Taking 'suffer little children' way too literally. Eunuch the Berk!
Once u start bending the laws for these people who can't make up their mind what they r today never mind tomorrow u go down a slippery slope.Normality is now punished all because Leo Var has changed the laws for LGPT you watched this car crash happen the wool was pulled over eyes
Wonder is he still on full pay while he kicks back for 23hrs a day🤔
Great to see we are importing the pronouns mind virus from the US and Britain
Its disgraceful how this man has been treated. This pantomime has to end before we cancel ourselves out of existence!
You love to see it
Absolutely ridiculous
meanwhile HSELive can repeatedly break the law on child disability assesments with zero consequences for management.
And rightly so. You just cannot disobey court orders or you would have anarchy.
When you see the criminals they don’t jail all you can say is he’s being punished for his belief’s. In school the teacher sets the rules outside of school do what you want.
madness and sums up this country. Teacher gets jailed because he won't call a boy a girl. utter lunacy. But if you have 100 convictions for all sorts of things you'll avoid jail. Left wing witchunting .......
he'll reinvent himself as a grifting anti-woke martyr, mark my words
Drug dealers are walking out of court free men and they locked him up. Joke of a country
When someone fails to abide by a court injunction they sometimes go to jail.
Enoch might get his first ride in prison. Every cloud and all that 🤷🏻♂️
Whether you agree with the position he took or not, it must come as a surprise to some people in liberal woke Ireland that there are still people who have religious convictions and are willing to adhere to them irrespective of the cost.
Why did this have to be the photo that everyone media outlet chose? I know he has no good side but my god. Fever dream stuff.
This isn’t about pronouns. It’s setting a precedent for future challenges to wokeness . It’s all about suppressing free speech, free ideals, the right to challenge the system. It’s about setting up a system where you challenge the woke system at your peril. Well done Mr Burke
Enough with this wokeness! We need more teachers like Mr. Burke! Look at all this kids we are raising now, a generation of spoiled brats!
Great to see some one take a stand to tyranny against the thought police ?
Happy Days. What a little wank stain
I honestly believe if you get rid of religion the world would be a better place
For those who only read headlines, here's the full story: 1. He harassed his boss and started shouting about student's personal issues in the Middle of a school assembly 2. His boss suspended him with pay while they decided on the disciplinary action. (which is normal) 1/2
Christofascist AF but prison? I suppose if he won't respect the order to stay away. People like this are dangerous zealots.
Refused to call a child 'they' and now he's in jail. And people wonder how did the German public become so easily duped in the 1930s.
He's clearly got mental health issues. All those far right nazi types always suffer from some form of mental health issues
They cannot be serious
All Mr Burke has to do to purge his contempt is to undertake not to access school grounds as set out in the injunction pending the outcome of the school disciplinary procedure for his alleged conduct at the school event in June last (NOT FOR REFUSING TO USE PRONOUNS).
Just like Nicky Kelly, he did nothing wrong FreeEnoch
If this doesn't wake ppl up to coming tyranny, nothing will
Yer man in Tallaght was out on bail. If they lock this guy up, the Justice system is a joke.
Narrator; He's in jail 🙃 Does the school have a policy about hiring folks of good character? Being jailed might give them an opportunity to cut this crazy person loose. Who is going to hire this guy in the future? His CV is going in the shredder once they see the name.
off to the joy with u
They should be ashamed of themselves

Teacher arrested over alleged breach of injunctionSecondary school teacher Enoch Burke, who is alleged to have breached the terms of an injunction directing him not to attend or teach at the school where he is employed, has been arrested. 😄 This arrest is not about pronouns but Burke’s refusal to abide by an interim injunction sought by the school on an emergency basis as he refuses to abide by the terms of his paid suspension. It also cannot be good to have a man with this level of anger on school premises. Attention seeker, like the rest of his family. Anyway, time to find out what happens when you breach a High Court order.
