    O’Leary is absolutely correct. Teachers are not managers or strategists, they are educationalists. That’s what they are trained to do. They should stick to it. The same applies to nurses and doctors. They are medical professionals, not managers.

    • @Diamonddavej
      @Diamonddavej 11 дней назад +5

      Teachers and school principals often develop roots in their communities, interacting daily not just with students, but with parents, local businesses, sports clubs, and community groups. This extensive community involvement means they gain a first-hand view into the challenges facing families, from housing to childcare costs and mental health concerns. Their position at the heart of community life often gives them a central perspective on how government policies affect people's daily lives.
      Furthermore, the role of an educator, particularly a school principal, requires many of the same skills used by a TD. They often must manage budgets, implement new policies, communicate with government departments, and make difficult decisions that balance school, community and government objectives. So they often end up learning to operating in the areas between competing interests, much like politicians must do.
      Teachers also develop a strong advocacy mindset, fighting for the needs of students from widely diverse backgrounds and abilities, while simultaneously managing classes and schools, and teaching and motivating pupils. This combination of a deep community connection, their leadership experience, and advocacy skills often makes the transition from education to politics a natural progression rather than an unexpected career change. In essence, the classroom and school administration experience serves as practical training for the complex demands of political service in the Dáil.

    So why IS the Dáil disproportionately attractive to teachers? Would it have anything to do with it being a risk-free job change for them? I mean, if a teacher can leave the classroom for the Dáil - while INDEFINITELY keeping dibs on their old teaching job (thereby keeping some newly-trained teachers out of permanent employment) - they would never have to worry about the "What happens if I don't get re-elected?"" question. I wonder; if their livelihood was on the line, would we see a more natural/representative balance of teachers in the Dáil?

      I once asked a local about a guy I saw in a Bar who looked like a former minister Barry Desmond. He replied oh "yeah he was a worker I think for a short time and got involved in the Union. He then became an ITGWU Union Official and he was run straight for the Dail in Dun Laoghaire bypassing the Local Council Then he was Minister for health and also Social welfare. After Ireland joined the EU could also double job as an MEP so he ran for that and got it. Eventually he retired into the European Court of Auditors.
      So he can have his original job pension , his Union Official pension , his TD pension, his Ministerial Pension, his MEP pension, his Court of Auditors pension and now the old age pension as well. Do you know what they call that? Some call that seven pensions but I call that Socialism"

      you would be wrong there. There are many teachers in the Oireachtas. Technically even the President was a University Teacher before he got into politics. The issues were should someone like Taoiseach Enda Kenny at the time be allowed to keep his teaching job open and get full pension and have a SUBSTITUTE teacher "temporarily" fill his post for decades and he be allowed pocket the difference in salary and get his teachers pension?
      There were also a lot of Solicitors and farmers in politics and there are issues with that as well. But more recently we have people who went to private Schools ( literally ALL party leaders and most of the so called Independent Socialists) and then straight into University where they got involved in political societies and Students Unions and from there straight into being elected without having a "normal" job.
      O Leary has a point. We don't need ANY one group having so much power. Indeed we might not even need many degrees for jobs. Business, Science and Engineering probably needs more representation. He didn't say we should exclude teachers Likewise the media would be all over him if he say "why do we have to have equal amounts of men and women in the Dail"
      Women tend to want to work more in caring professions...nursing, Primary teaching etc. We don't complain when there are 5% men in such professions. Women want to have children and bring them up at home. We voted not to change their special status there. Whats the huge issue with that? But if O Leary said "why do we need to have 50/50 in the Dail" their would be ructions!

    Agree fully with Michael O’Leary on both issues of teachers in the dail and greens in government!
    We have had enough of failed schoolteachers like Michael Martin and Enda Kenny and many more in the dail. Both have proven themselves totally devoid of any real ability. Attracted by ridiculously inflated salaries accompanied by generous expenses.

  • @Caz1916

    He's 100% right. Our politicians are not qualified to run the departments they run, they are simply assigned to them. Each politician should at the very least have a qualification and/ or experience working in a sector relevant to their department. In no other sector would you get a management level job with no qualifications and/ or experience

I know she would, as I do completely disagree that teachers being in the Dàil would be beneficial for certain companies' private and public sectors for employing their students ready for work.
