    Good advice. Failure to involve your union or seek advice from a solicitor at an early stage can be a mistake. Going off on a "solo run" as Mr Burke has done can get an employee into all sorts of unnecessary difficulty

    So if the "authority" in the work place tells an employee to pick up a stone and smash the window the employee must enter into a legal Circus to explain why he can not follow that instruction.. sorry but that sounds like an extract from Gulliver's travels

    I have seen this process in action as a union rep. It can be surprising how calmly the sides argue their position but it does require compromise.
    If one side softens their stance early often the other side reacts similarly and now you're on the road to success often very quickly.
    If there's no indication of compromise it's wrapped up and pushed into the next stage as you laid out.
    Religion in general has a poor history with the concept of compromise but religious people for the most part are pretty good with this, such as accepting evolution or using contraception.
    A biblical literalist does not compromise their beliefs. Even when it conflicts with another equally determined belief system. So Enoch's situation was always going to get ugly.
    But what you laid out is widely used to great affect by those of us who don't live in a black and white world.

      No the school misrepresented itself. Children act up or lie. God made 2 genders. Enoch Burke is fighting for Faith and other parents and children. The Lord Made He male and female.

    The route you are suggesting would still result in an innocent teacher losing his employment on the back of the decision taken by a school to enforce an ideological, and
    political driven dictate . This would not be a just or moral solution to this issue that has besmirched the reputation of Irish education. A simpler solution would be for
    the school to reinstate Mr Burke to his teaching position and to drop the demand to use pronouns.

      The leniency with which the Burkes have been treated is incredible. The fact that Enoch Burke has been on full salary is never highlighted when people clamour about unfair treatment. Anyone else who’d behaved as Enoch Burke did would be fully detached from the school by now and certainly not be receiving money. Not a single fine paid, no costs awarded to the school have been paid. I don’t hear anyone shouting about scroungers.

      @@InExcelsisDeo24 Money is not the relevant issue or indeed your crude and inaccurate attempt to smear Enoch Burke as a scrounger.
      What is relevant but not credible is that Mr Burkes employer considered it reasonable, moral and just to suspend him from his position
      because he would not use pronouns or promote transgender ideology. I have no doubt many teachers have their own abhorrence at having to
      present ideological indoctrination as an educational program for fear of losing their own positions.

      Not anymore, we are coming for them at full force.
      Varadkar & Co have committed treason against the Irish State.
      Case notes:
      Clandestine Agenda:
      It would need to be demonstrated that the World Economic Forum has a secret or hidden agenda that is being imposed on or adopted by the Irish government. This would involve showing that the WEF's intentions are not just influential but are being covertly integrated into Irish policy without public awareness or consent.
      Lack of Legislative Process:
      A critical point would be to demonstrate that the Irish government is implementing policies or taking actions influenced by the WEF without going through the proper legislative process. This would mean bypassing the parliamentary debate, voting, and other procedures required for legal and legitimate policy implementation.
      Espionage:
      Arguing that this constitutes espionage would involve a broad interpretation of the term. Traditionally, espionage is understood as involving the theft of secrets or confidential information for the benefit of another state or entity. In this context, the argument would need to stretch this definition to include the imposition of external policy agendas on a sovereign state. This would involve framing the WEF's influence as not just undemocratic but as a form of political subversion or betrayal of national interests.
      Foreign Influence and Sovereignty:
      The crux of the argument would rest on the notion that Irish sovereignty is being undermined by a foreign entity (the WEF) in a manner that is secretive, undemocratic, and contrary to the interests and wishes of the Irish people. This would be presented as a violation of national self-determination and democratic governance.
