Orange is the new Burke

I can see how the school will not be happy with the Judge's decision. More expense for them to incur.

If they do employ private security, what will happen the first time Enoch breaches their cordon?. Will they be inclined to forcefully eject him, or will they just call the Guards?. And will we back back where we are now?

Enoch now has fines totaling circa 1/4 million against him. He's obviously not going to pay. But it will mean that if he ever gains employment elsewhere (in the State), his bank account will be drained again. So I can't see how he can ever gain employment in the State ever again (which might be no bad thing anyway).l

One way past the security issue is to have some-one local get a PSA licence and work the gateway to the school. I'd be a bit surprised if no one in the locale had a PSA licence or was prepared to train and get one for use to provide security at the school entrance gate to stop persons intent on disruption there from entering the grounds. Enoch's mugshot from previous attendance at the school gates and buildings have to be ten a penny now. Get one and stick it in a plastic folder for the person securing the gate. The security person doesn't have to be male. Just catch Burke or a Burke family member using physical bodily force against the security person on camera and proceed with criminal assault charges against him/them. Odds on the family will have some-one covering Burke's activity at the gate anyway and it can be used against him/them. The licence is Private Security Authority for use at a multitude of premises.

What is this? lol. They will just get a reputable security company who can send regular lads.

Ma Burke with Josiah (I think) on video outside the school: this is insanity what happening to Enoch, an upright, intelligent, kind, lover of his students, young teacher. This should never, it would never have happened only for the church which was silent, never came onto the plague field because it's betrayed Christ. It has agreed with the corrupt judge and the government and they've got their thirty pieces of silver but it won't end up good for you…… yada, yada, yada. From what Josiah said, the clip was recorded yesterday as he mentioned "being in court today".

Haven't the Gardai been interveening since day 1?

I don't believe he is on the grounds of the school anyway, which is why even a locally hired security crew would be unable to do anything.

No, They arrested him once but the DPP said it was a civil matter and he wasn't charged.

He stands outside the door of the school by the windows and if he gets to the door before it's locked, he walks in. Last week he was posing for selfies with the first years, according to himself.

My child wouldn't be attending that school. Not because of Burke but because of the security of it all.

It's time the Dept of Education supported them on this, It's opening a can of worms that someone else is going to take advantage of.

I have to wonder why the process of his appeal over his dismissal has not proceeded, he won the right to remove an individual(fair ruling I agree with), now replace him and hear the appeal and make it final.

Unless he can bring something new to the table, such as the process wasn't fair, was heavy handed, not natural and fair process etc, its more than likely that the appeals board will uphold the schools decision to dismiss him.

Then its onto the WRC(God help them). last time the burkes were there Amiee case was dismissed because her and her mother wouldn't stop shouting from the get go so chairperson stopped it altogether as they were disruptive, I can see a repeat performance again.

He is turning up daily as he claims he is still employed, only because he is been paid and he has an appeal in process.

It doesn't work like that. You need a reliable company with a track record and plenty of backup options in case a worker is sick or unavailable.

I wouldn't be surprised if the reason that his appeal over his dismissal has not proceeded is due to them being unable to find someone who is willing to replace the person who was on the appeal panel. Given that the family seem to think it's ok to turn up at people's homes, or turn up when they are going to church, etc., shove a camera in their face and pester the bejaysus out of them, I could perfectly understand why a person wouldn't want to be on the appeal panel. I do agree with you though - whenever they do get the appeal going, it is more than likely that they will uphold the school's decision.

They have done. Can't remember who was taoiseach at the time but they chased him around castlebar with the usual fone antics. They also harrassed alan dillon when he was trying to do a bit of shopping in Tescos. He had to turn around and leave..

I doubt he'd do anything at all.

But I do get the impression the school has been very clear in expectations of how staff, pupils and parents are to deal with him (which I assume means they ignore him), it is amazing there hasn't been a single incident...

Big claim that you can't prove... Why exactly should we believe you? If he had the level of support you were claiming, I'd expect some of those parents to be protesting with him.
