      In Ireland we don't have enough of anything and you are here blaming one person for the forthcomings of the entire court system here. Most people who are serious about studying law and clearly Simeon has already been to the UK, knows that everything in Ireland is so much slower due to the lack of mentors. Simeon's video was merely a plea to give nothing and get whatever he wants because the Burke family is a media interest.

    I have no time for the Burke family and what they stand for but I am grudgingly forced to admit that they have a point here. He is being prevented from completing his professional training because people don't like him and what he stands for. This is discrimination. I can full understand why no barrister wants to take him on and I wouldn't force anyone to hire him but there should be an alternative route available. This actually applies to every career with an apprenticeship (plumping carpentry etc) people are included or excluded because of who they are and who they know rather than on their own merits.

    It might not be right or fair but it is completely understandable. The Burke, thought their own actions have basically made themselves unemployable. They use Irish law and the courts system when it suits them and when it doesn't go their way they shout from the rooftops. Their behaviour is completely unacceptable and one would often wonder about the state of their mental health. I can't see how any prospective employer could take the chance in employing any of them, they could ruin his or her business overnight. The whole family really are no more than over educated thugs & bullies.

      "Over educated thugs and bullies"
      Enoch Burke is a school teacher, a patriot, a loving son, and a Christian that has been persecuted for defending the most vulnerable in society. He is in prison for upholding his religious belief; the same belief that guides his moral and ethical code of conduct. I'd like you to note that the same establishment that keeps him imprisoned and refuses to acknowledge the academic credulity of his brother Simeon has decided not to jail evil men like Judge Brian Curtain. To remind you; Brian Curtin is a former barrister and Irish Circuit Court judge who was tried for possessing images of ch*ld p*rnography. After the case collapsed, the question of whether Curtin could continue as a judge became the focus of political and legal disputes. An impeachment motion was launched in the Dáil in 2004 until Curtin resigned in 2006 on grounds of ill health, and the motion lapsed. Curtain, in his arrogance refused to step down and not as much as a day on remand.
      History will be kind to the Burkes, in particular Enoch, and anyone who believes such a lovely young man deserves to be on Mountjoy prison should deeply reflect upon their reasons for thinking this way.

These brothers are the true leadership that Ireland and its people deserve. Simeon and his brother are a formidable force in their own rights. Simeon will not be stopped, he will become a barrister. He will also become a judge one day and judge righteously. God speed to Simeon and all the Bourke family. It is a righteous judgement to proclaim that a boy is a boy and a girl is a girl.

Clutch your smug opinions all you want, this state of affairs is a loss for all. When the legal profession collectively acts in this discriminatory way, trust in objectivity collapses. Personally, I couldn’t care less for rosary beads and rainbow flags - it's all wind and piss. But I care for Justice, Truth, Science, and Law.

This is a false diversity and shameful. I'm Irish by ancestry and embarrassed by what is clearly happening here. Are there no solicitors in Ireland courageous enough to step forward and say this must end and a young man who has worked so hard and done so well will not be denied his opportunity. Does Ireland so fear true diversity of opinion it will deny one of their own sons that opportunity, that he earned with his own hard work and accomplishment? Ireland certainly is making news these days, but frankly not in a good way. I wouldn't be so quick to add this to the embarrassing list. The world is watching. Give Simeon Burke his opportunity.

If he did finish his training and be self employed he would be able to work with like minded clients, and they would want to work with him. I am not seeing anyone coming forward saying he has been difficult to work with in the past. Regardless of my own thinking on subjects, and I have no religion, so not in the game. But I am noticing people being overlooked in the work place for having a bit of common sense, (not sure how else to put it) . So if you just say you agree with XYZ you are in, but if you don't lie about it your out. I am sure there are a lot of bias in all areas, the fact they do not voice it, means they get away with it.

      Joan, this young man was carried out of the High Court by 4 Gardai at the direction of the sitting judge. The reason was on account of his behaviour in the court. The behaviour and subsequent conviction and successful appeal are dealt with in this article in the Irish Times:www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/courts/2024/04/15/simeon-burke-has-conviction-for-volatile-breach-of-the-peace-struck-out/
      If you were a Master barrister and you were considerting taking him on you may take into account this conduct. Along with other issues/concerns you might have and whether someone else might be a safer bet for the pupillage.
      You might also consider his judgment and common sense and take those types of thing into account. For example going into the High Court and shouting over a judge when you are on the final leg of your barrister training. Was this sensible?
      The fact that he is a Christian is not the reason he has been unable to find a Master, in my opinion. The Law Library is full of Christians, they are in an overwhelming majority.
      The Law Society, the Bar Council, the Law Library, the Dail, Irish society generally is full of Christians who form the overwhelming majority.
