I wonder how this will work out for him

As Fr Ted used to say "Those Protestants up to no good as usual". It is hard to see how this is going to get resolved. This Burke lad appears to have chosen this hill to die on. Will he have to be locked up again to protect the school community? Horrible situation for all involved with the school.
Was the principal not a member?
Perfectly apt.
No idea. What's the relevance? I regard what the Burkes have done as very nasty, but it's not a human rights issue for them or anyone else.
Whilst Home schooling in itself may have some merits, it’s the isolationist aspect outside of school time that I’m totally against - I know of a couple involved with a Christian “cult” which is the best way I can describe it- not only home schooling their kids, they only socialise with other cult members- I hate to think what their kids will turn out like - I do believe that the law should be amended to treat such upbringing as child abuse
Did you miss the joke?
Can’t understand the Dublin medias obsession with this guy .
he clearly doesn’t agree with all this transgender stuff been rammed down students throats - so what ?? … a lot of people don’t agree with all this transgender agenda . We can’t all be advocates for transgenderism!
Schools spend many hours forcing stuff down students troaths - its a large part of their function - but what's transgender got to do with it?
Of course, evangelical xtians read the bible and thus have their own direct line to god. And there is somepretty weird stuff in the bible, even lots of god-approved reasons for killing people.
It may be apt, but is there any need to sink to that level?
So the students are rightly pointing out how much of a distraction all this is for them with the constant media attention and him being a distuptive presence.
I wonder will he listen to their appeals and acually follow the students' wishes?
We don’t get to pick and choose which of our employer policies we implement. He can agree or disagree, but he still needs to do his job, showing basic respect and dignity to students, or get the hell out.
An audience with Mr Burke....
Not a hope. This has more miles in it. Drama at the school again tomorrow likely to be the start of it.
Who asked Burke or anyone else to advocate for them?
Burke is the opposite of an advocate for transgender people, he is actively trying to work against transgender and LGBTQ+ rights.
Out of the mouths of babes... 👏
What a surprise to find that a far right figure has specialised in German.
It's a mystery obviously. He is God as I said earlier ... If he exists. Who is 'they'?
You'd need a constitutional referendum as what you propose would be in conflict with Article 41 IMO.
According to the Independent he refused to accept the letter

I know the school wanted to give him enough rope, but that was long done.
The welfare of the children like I said weeks ago should have been prioritised ahead of this creep.
He should have been arrested and charged with criminal trespass a fortnight ago.
Yes and while I'd agree with him to a point there is a court order in place for him to stay away from the school. He should abide by it. He has lost out here.
He is entitled to his views. Many people would agree to a degree with them, myself included. The problem is that he has infringed on many other people because of these views. He's not entitled to that. He has, it seems, totally fcuked up his life, lost a decent paying job for life and become a criminal; and it's unlikely to end there. He certainly has ulterior motives though so perhaps he doesn't care.
We all disagree with stuff in our personal and working life, things that really grate on us. And ultimately we just have up put up with certain things, cause that's life. Enoch only believes in his own ideology though and that's why he is where he is.
Without reading through 54 pages of this, why is this guy just not fired? End of story.
He has been
sadly it almost certainly won't be the end of the story
He has.
Just a tad cowardly
And I was referring to the same ... Only I used a gender neutral / third person singular pronoun.
See how easy it is?
Really not worth all the bother, now is it.
This story is far from over. Very far from over.
I don't know. It's interpretation of language. Might mean something else to someone else.
