Orange is the new Burke

Yes but they don't expect, as some here believe, that the bread/host is going to turn into human flesh right before there eyes! Anyway this is simply deflection, the Burkes are roaring (literally) evangelical protestants not Catholics.

Bakers and Vintners FTW. Literally they are bloody great bodies.

I must say that I found the thumbnail for the video on independent.ie quite amusing. The mother appears to be giving a particular form of salute.

Obviously Burkes, no need to sue me. I'm only pointing out what it looks like. I am not saying that is what she intended.

He must have been enjoying himself at one stage.

They do have a load of kids

I have to say, Ammi (is that pronounced Amee or Ammy?) has lovely shiny hair. Wonder what shampoo she uses?

Enoch looks like he just got 180

Are any of them married yet?

I’ve heard you can tell a Wella woman anywhere- however I’ve no information at my disposal as to what characteristics a Wella woman has over non-Wella women so unfortunately I can’t either rule in or out this product in her hair, at this time.

Im now going to log off the internet and shoot * myself as this is a new low for me on contributions to this discussion 😀

*not to be taken literally thanks 😛

Burke wouldn't have a wealth of experience as a teacher given that he's relatively young and spent a considerable amount of his time in college but he's highly qualified and by all accounts an excellent teacher. He excelled academically, achieving first class honours in both his degrees. Not a simple feat. He has two bachelor's degrees and a masters in education. I read somewhere but can't find it now that Enoch Burke chose teaching ahead of medicine. If that's true, it would put him somewhere in the top 5% academically.

Enoch had no criminal record so what would a background check have revealed? I'm sure he passed Garda Vetting as all teachers have to. He can't be discriminated against based on the actions of his family.

I'd imagine there was at least one face to face interview. He must have passed that with flying colours seeing as they gave him the job.

Before all this hullabaloo he looked like a very employable teacher so I wouldn't be holding that against Wilson's Hospital School. Does he look like a very employable teacher now, no, not so much any more.

Just as an aside, some of the Burke's protests and court cases have done some good. For instance, Elijah Burke's High Court/Supreme Copurt case showed how it was illegal to exclude those who were home schooled from the predicted grades system initiated when COVID was around.

It was mentioned by a couple of people earlier that mammy seemed to enjoy her outburst for the cameras while her family acted as her backing group.

She has encouraged her children every step of the way to becoming unemployable laughing stocks.

Is it a control thing? A way of keeping them close rather than fleeing the nest and possibly encountering some normality?
