BREAKING: Teacher Enoch Burke speaks out as High Court judge threatens seizure of cars and assets in transgender row
In July 2025 the Court of Appeal ruled that the principal’s “overarching complaint” against Enoch Burke was his refusal to comply with her instruction to address a child by a new name and the “they” pronoun.
After three years of the High Court refusing to admit this simple truth, this was the first acknowledgment by a Court of the reason why Enoch Burke had been suspended and purportedly dismissed.
The truth had always been there and clear to see from the beginning in the principal's report.
Today Enoch Burke submitted to High Court Judge Brian Cregan that a huge question mark now hangs over the validity and enforceability of the Order of Judge Alexander Owens of 2023, which upheld Enoch Burke's suspension as lawful. It is on foot of this Order that the High Court has subjected him to imprisonment, fines and now considers sequestration of assets.
The Catholic Church continues to be silent on this issue. Where do its leaders stand on the abuse of children in schools across the country? If that church had opened its mouth and agreed with God then the promotion of LGBTQ+ ideology in schools and the imprisonment of those who refuse to endorse it would not be happening in Ireland today.
The Catholic Church had a powerful influence in the recent Presidential election. Declan Ganley, a fervent advocate for Catholicism, led the campaign urging people to spoil their votes. Other Catholic activists such as David Quinn and Maria Steen of the Iona Institute, as well as John McGuirk and Ben Scallan of Gript Media, were also prominent in this campaign.
The individuals mentioned above showed a fervent opposition to Heather Humphreys. The antipathy to Humphreys, we are seeing now, was driven by her cultural background and her religious beliefs.
The Catholic priests and bishops are silent on transgenderism, but one priest could come out strongly during the election campaign and say “Catholic candidates” were required.
Aontú, the political party led by Peadar Toibín, has been utterly exposed in recent days in a damning investigation by the Independent newspaper.
Multiple members of the Ógra Aontú, the party’s youth wing, including the leader John Paul Bryan, were revealed to have shared and posted deeply bigoted and anti-Semitic comments in a WhatsApp group. In one exchange an individual says he was “the only black guy in Ógra Aontú” (a reference to his Protestant background) and John Bryan replied “Please God we can keep it that way.”
John Paul Bryan is a close associate of Mayo TD Paul Lawless. Bryan was Lawless’ election agent in the 2024 General Election. In a school near Paul Lawless’ base in Mayo a teacher recently reported students telling her “we can’t vote for a Protestant.” The Aontú revelations in the Independent show clearly where this sentiment is coming from.
No matter what Heather Humphreys did, even to advance the cause of a United Ireland, she was unacceptable and the target of abuse because she was not a Catholic.
The Spoil the Vote Campaign ensured the election of Catherine Connolly, a Marxist who fraternises with terrorists.
Nonetheless, upon her election, and after spending weeks saying he couldn’t vote for either candidate, RTÉ reported Aontú leader Peadar Toibín congratulating Connolly and saying he had ”no doubt” she would be a good president. Paul Lawless likewise went out of his way to congratulate the new Marxist president.
RTÉ also reported Archbishop Eamon Martin praying for God’s blessing on Connolly (a supporter of terrorists), and that the Holy Spirit would “inspire her” in her role.
Some months ago we urged Archbishop Eamon Martin to speak out on the destruction of children in schools through LGBTQ+ ideology. While Eamon Martin is quick to celebrate the election of a Marxist as Ireland’s President, the Church he leads maintains a deafening silence on the ruination of the next generation.
The Lord Jesus Christ said in the Gospel of Matthew that “whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.”
We urge parents to stand up against the indoctrination of their children.

![BREAKING: BURKES RESPOND TO MEDIA LIES ON ENOCH BURKE CASE
BREAKING: BURKES RESPOND TO MEDIA LIES ON ENOCH BURKE CASE
On 16 January the Irish Times published an article by Political Editor Pat Leahy which spread the utterly false claim that schools must use the preferred name and pronouns of “transgender students.”
The recent front-page article was reporting on the new Guide released by the Irish Council for Civil Liberties entitled “Know Your Rights.”
Just days after the article was published, the Department of Education clarified what was already obvious - that there is no legal obligation upon any teacher to use a student’s preferred pronouns.
Pat Leahy and the Irish Times presented these lies as fact on the front page of a national newspaper. They are a disgrace.
The “Know Your Rights” Guide from the ICCL was legally reviewed by A&L Goodbody, a major Irish law firm. The guide contained the false claim that the Equal Status Act 2000-2018 mandates the use of a person’s preferred pronouns. This Act makes no such demand, and indeed has nothing to do with transgenderism whatsoever.
BREAKING: BURKES RESPOND TO MEDIA LIES ON ENOCH BURKE CASE
One of the first judges to address the Enoch Burke case in 2022 was Judge Eileen Roberts. Roberts upheld the suspension of Enoch Burke by Wilson’s Hospital School, and used the Equal Status Act as a cover for doing so.
It is highly significant that Judge Eileen Roberts was the Chairman of A&L Goodbody before being appointed as a High Court Judge. She had no prior experience on the bench, and Enoch Burke was one of the first cases she ever heard as a Judge.
In another recent article, published on 25 January in the Irish Examiner, Mick Clifford made the claim that Enoch Burke’s “transgression” was not that he refused to use the “they” pronoun, but rather “harassment of the school principal and associated behaviour.” This is an outrageous lie.
Principal Niamh McShanes disciplinary report made it clear that it was Enoch Burkes objection to her instruction and “non-acceptance of transgenderism” which led to his suspension.
In a judgment in July 2025, Court of Appeal Judge Mary Faherty stated: “In my view, any reasonable reader of the principal’s report would understand that the principal considered her overarching complaint against [Enoch Burke] to fall under the heading of refusal to comply with a legitimate instruction resulting in serious consequences”. Judge Faherty went on to say that the principal’s instruction was a “kernel” of this case.
Mick Clifford knows the above. Nevertheless, he used his platform on the Irish Examiner to spread malicious and defamatory lies about Enoch Burke.
In recent days others such as Ronan Mullen have jumped on the bandwagon, speaking out on how the Equal Status Act has no bearing on transgenderism, and how there is no legal obligation upon teachers to use preferred pronouns.
The fact is, however, that when Judge Eileen Roberts consigned Enoch Burke to a prison cell in 2022 and used this Act to cover her actions, Ronan Mullen did not use his position as a Senator to call her out. Why is he, a qualified barrister, only now making these statements, after three and a half years and almost 600 days of incarceration for Enoch Burke? People should not be deceived by his actions today. BREAKING: BURKES RESPOND TO MEDIA LIES ON ENOCH BURKE CASE](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/pD8Is4lVLQY/mqdefault.jpg)
