  1. #EnochBurke appears to be about to get what he wanted: disciplinary appeal concluded against him, without hearing his case.

    Instead of presenting his case, the #transphobic extremist ex-teacher today chose his old game of shouting down the meeting until he was removed.

    Since there was no appeal to assess, the appeal will be dismissed. Tthe #BurkeFamily will lie and lie and yell "unfair", but the legal battle will be over. Burke's salary will stop.

  6. Ex-teacher ENOCH BURKE is jailed solely for #trespassing. He is not jailed for his views, or for anything he has said or not said.

    Judges have repeatedly told #EnochBurke that he holds the key to his own prison cell, and may leave prison whenever he promises to stop trespassing. The judges have repeatedly tell him that he can say whatever he wants to say, but that he must not trespass.

  11. #EnochBurke's five millionth* court appearance is to object to being kept safe, in a smaller prison nearer his family. Wicked, says Enoch

    But luckily, he can't disrupt the #HighCourt #IEHC any more. All his appearances are now on a video link, which gets cut if he kicks off. This also saves the cost of a van, driver, and escorting officer to bring Burke to and from the court.

    Note: the tally of five million is #sarcasm and #hyperbole, induced by the #BurkeFamily

  17. In #Castlebar, few people want to go on the record about the #BurkeFamily.

    The town's fundamentalist fugitives #MartinaBurke and #AmmiBurke are nowhere to be seen. The duo are sentenced to a fortnight of imprisonment for #ContemptOfCourt, like Ammi's brother #EnochBurke who is held indefinitely held for repeated #trespass.

    #JusticeCregan called it a "family circus". Who wants to be caught up in that?

  22. #MartinaBurke & #AmmiBurke have been sentenced to 2 wks in prison for #contemptofcourt after repeatedly shouting in the #HighCourt.

    Judge Cregan called it "a paradigmatic case of contempt" & said it was time to end the circus.

    The #BurkeFamily court strategy is clear: Show up. Shout over the judge. Get removed by Gardaí, then whine when the court responds.

    In a democracy, everyone is entitled to views.

    But no one is above the law. The court is not their stage.

  27. Ireland is stuck in a legal drama over an ex-teacher. #EnochBurke and his large family of religious fundamentalist headbangers are in a four-year battle with #WilsonsHospital school. The dispute began with the school's request that staff respect a pupil's request that when a pronoun is used, they be referred to by the prounoun "they".

    #SingularThey is at least 651 years old, which may be a bit modern for the #BurkeFamily.

  37. RTÉ's Órla O'Donnell on the jailing of #EnochBurke's mother #MartinaBurke and sister #AmmiBurke for #ContemptOfCourt.

    Judge Cregan said it was "long past time for the court to call a halt to this family circus".

    He said the Burkes had been treated with great forbearance by the courts but the situation where ten gardaí had to be present in court during Burke-related cases was completely abnormal and could not continue.

    Jailed teacher #EnochBurke’s mother Martina and sister Ammi were in contempt of court by their behaviour during a hearing on 20th February. Both were imprisoned for 2 weeks.

    Justice Brian Cregan called for an end to the Burke “family circus”. He intends to formally complain to the Law Society about solicitor Ammi Burke; and that Ammi, Martina & Isaac Burke may only attend future court hearings remotely.

  48. The #transphobe defence of #EnochBurke says he is a "#Christian" who opposes "fantasy" about #genderIdentity.

    Reality: the #BurkeFamily's religion is based on a claimed #virginbirth, and the #Trinity: god is a father and his son and a ghost. These core beliefs of #Christians have zero scientific evidence.

    Yet overwhelming scientific evidence shows that for #trans people, gender transition leads to improved wellbeing. E.g. whatweknow.inequality.cornell.

    Time to be harsh with Christian fantasists.
