No idea. The article doesn't say.
(Edit: it mentions "going home to her beloved Munster" - so, moving back where she is from?)
Where's the details of this hatred & vitriol that you say the Burkes have directed at the LGBT+ community? Please elaborate.
Apologies, I guess I should have said ministry instead?
If you mean the Catholic priesthood, they’re not Catholics. They’re “evangelical Christians”. That’s a fairly broad description, and it could be used to describe people from various Christian denominations, and indeed none. I’ve never read anything that suggests they’re a member of any specific church.
..
Well they aren't Catholic for a start.
Interesting, thanks for the info. Could you share a link to that announcement?
Any idea why she left Wilson's?
What for?
The current Principal (Frank Milling) is not the same Principal that Enoch Burke chased around a public function (Niamh McShane).
Ms McShane took up employment at another school and moved to another part of the country during the summer, I believe. Ms McShane's move was planned and publically announced long before the incident on 21 June ever happened.
What the heck are you talking about? Trolling methinks.
Although Burke, and by extension the family he comes from, seem to be rather strange people, the school has made some very poor decisions here. I wonder if enrollment has suffered as a result? If so the principal could get a rap over the knuckles or worse.
I wonder why none of them joined the priesthood?
Add another name to the list of members of the Burke family who are now unemployable in their chosen fields.
They’re definitely litigious
but are they really media savvy ? 99% of people seem to think they’re total weirdos
The entire family are as mad as a bag of cats. Nobody cares about their beliefs but its the fact they insist on trying to force them onto everyone else that people rightly have a problem with and every bit of abuse they get due to their antics is deserved in my opinion.
Give your head a shake mate.
Boo hoo hoo someone was mean on the internet to Enoch!!
yeah, Enoch disrupted school for kids and staff for months, wasted court time, wasted tax payers money sitting in prison for no good reason but people were MEAN.
the guys a homophobic bigot and now he’s an unemployed homophobic bigot. Fcuk him and fcuk his defenders. Y’all are a joke.
The Burke's are both media savvy and litigous.
They'll milk this dismissal to the absolute max and will be going through every detail of the proceedings looking for an angle or opportunity to go to court.
The bible is literally full of people being challenged by God, one way or another.
Is he trying to confuse us?
Awfully presumptuous of you to think you know what God intended. God works in mysterious ways after all.
I'm not sure if there is a God or not. Assuming there is one and he has the power to create people then if he created a person as a man he intended that to happen.

You are not concerned about the level of hate and vitriol by the Burkes towards the LGBT+ community?
Yes. I agree some of the hatred and vitriol against EB on this site was too much.
But you also can surely admit that EB and his family have shown disrespect to the students, the students family, the Principal, the School board, the whole school community, the judges, the legal system.
Sometimes, yes - but this is what happens when you put yourself up.on pedestals.
Silly excuses?? If I bothered to scroll back through this thread and pulled out random posts, the level of vitriol directed at these people is completely OTT. It's as if, we have an easy target here so let's pile in.
From what I've read, it doesn't seem to have ever worked in the first place.
True, bit I lived there fir a while. Half the place seemed to bonkers crazy in a nice fun-loving way, the other half seemed to be conservative and scared of anything that was unusual or went against the status quo, so - mainly the other half.
Seemed to ge no in-between.
That said, it was a good ten years ago.
I think that’s a bit unfair on mayo. Yes like all rural areas it is a bit more conservative but talking to my mothers good friend from Mayo there isn’t any time for the Burke’s up there- they are universally disliked and notorious trouble makers. The types you’d have nothing to do with as they’ll sue at the drop of a hat

Only place he should be turning up to on Monday morning is the dole office in Castlebar.
No split. Majority sick of antics that have been going on for years . One thing having an opinion it's another thing protesting at every opportunity and using their education and law qualifications to scare people into backing down . Not working this time .
