Enoch Burke turns up to school again despite sacking - read OP before posting

why is it that the more conservative someone’s views the more they don’t think they should suffer consequences for their actions?

It must also occur to them that making a big deal of this on social media is likely to hamper his career even more. He presumably is willing to accept this or more ridiculously thinks it’s helping him.
what a waste of education and life.

To my mind you haven't explained your reasoning.

You've said that they should compromise -but without explaining why or how.

Well that's all very obtuse…

We can leave it at that then.

They could continue with that approach and hope it all goes away.

As you say an intervention is not without risk.

Theres no approach they are taking, as far as im aware this is the way things have always been done.

I think I've made it quite clear that I believe some sort of negotiation could help to sort out this issue.

I don't want to prescribe possible solutions because I am not involved and there is little point in raising hypothetical situations.

If things develope in a positive direction I may rejoin the conversation.

This is complete nonsense and your responses to subsequent questions indicate that you don't have a clue what you are talking about.

There is a clear route for this man to progress his career. All he has to do is to find ONE senior barrister, from the many hundreds available, to act as his master. This is the exact same for every junior barrister who wishes to pursue the career. It requires no compromise on the part of the Bar Council or anybody else; the rules are the same for everybody.

If no barrister in the country is willing to accept him as a Devil then that tells it's own story. Given that Ammi went to war with her employers, Enoch went to war with his employers and Simeon's prior conduct, why in heaven's name would anybody take the risk of engaging him (or any of them at this stage). An employer would be staring down a gun barrel, waiting for the explosion. You can imaging him and his mother in six months engaging in a row with his master, seeking injunctions, threatening them with the bar council, the LSRA and the dickens knows what else and bringing them nothing but grief, headaches, expense and unwanted attention.

His best option at this stage would be to put his youthful mistakes and his familial reputation behind him and go practice in a different jurisdiction.

Enoch has been back in prison for a few weeks now.

We're talking about his baby bro, Simeon, who is feeling hard done by because nobody wants him.

So his mammy and sister went to shout at some people at the ploughing about it.

I wonder why, surely he is a bullet best dodged for any practice looking for an apprentice!

Simeon wants to be a devil, but no master will have him. Even the masters are balking at the thought of mentoring this particular little devil.

When a devil master won't accept a young potential devil, well…one knows there is something afoot.

In my opinion, he should take a trip to LA and try to contact Luci. I think that's where he was last. If Simeon does find Luci, he should kneel down and beg for a place (and/or take a very very nice bottle of Irish Whiskey to sweeten the deal).

I'm not sure however, how this will jive with Simeon's Christian Evangelical background though. But hey ho, even Lucifer was a Christian (or something) at some stage.

Could only watch 2 minutes… her voice goes right through me

Spot on.

Unless there is a Barrister in the state who is a complete nutter, the cretin will have go practice somewhere else and pray he is not googled pre or after interview.

Either that or give "Law Tips" on Youtube.

Actions have consequences. The more the better for this deplorable family.

That's true, however there are many children who are home educated or educated outside the formal Irish school system. They must follow certain rules and regulations and are assessed and inspected. The home school guidelines include the following -

A certain minimum education should • besuited to the age, ability, aptitude and personality of the child • be responsive to the child’s individual needs, should take cognisance of the areas of learning that are of interest to the child, and should ensure that his/her personal potential is enhanced and not suppressed • address the immediate and prospective needs of the child, in the context of the cultural, economic and social environment • provide a reasonably balanced range of learning experiences, so that no one aspect of the child’s learning is emphasised to the exclusion of others • develop the personal and social skills of the child and prepare him/her for the responsibilities of citizenship • contribute to the moral development of the child • ensure the development of basic skills (as outlined below) so as to prepare the child to participate in society and everyday life • provide opportunities for the child to develop his/her intellectual capacities and understanding

Guidelines issued in 2003, over twenty years ago now.

I know that Mrs. Burke is/was a qualified teacher, but I wonder how much emphasis was placed by her on the aspects in bold above.

Anyway, I'm just shooting the breeze and thinking out loud.
