Teacher in Ireland arrested and put in prison for not using woke pronouns

[gtopa1]

Yes, I saw that in the op. He tried to go do his job, earning a living and he was arrested for it. Becasue since he did not bow to the demands of you lefties he was not allowed to work his job.

And you think that is a good thing?

"
Referring to his suspension, Mr Burke said: 'It is extraordinary and reprehensible that someone's religious beliefs on this matter could ever be taken as grounds for an allegation of misconduct.

'My religious beliefs are not misconduct. They are not gross misconduct. They never will be. They are dear to me. I will never deny them and never betray them, and I will never bow to an order that would require me to do so. It is just not possible for me to do that.'"

Teacher sent to jail for contempt of court after pronoun row

Enoch Burke was arrested yesterday morning for breaching a court order not to teach at his Westmeath school - Wilson's Hospital School - or be physically present there.

The School Board accused him of "Gross Misconduct". That was a nefarious LIE!!! It was an attempt to intimidate him and frankly for a teacher it is death to his good name. The Board is not only in the wrong but when Judge Quinn finds out that the Board has done this in their initial application to the Court then frankly he should have the bastards arrested!!!

What is Gross Misconduct under Irish Law?​

""Section 8 of the Minimum Notice and Terms of Employment Act 1973 saves an employer from liability for minimum notice where the dismissal is for misconduct. We have always held that this exemption applies only to cases of very bad behaviour of such a kind that no reasonable employer could be expected to tolerate the continuance of the relationship for a minute longer; we believe the legislature had in mind such things as violent assault or larceny or behaviour in the same sort of serious category. If the legislature had intended to exempt an employer from giving notice in such cases where the behaviour fell short of being able to fairly be called by the dirty word ‘misconduct’ we have always felt that they would have said so by adding such words (after the word misconduct) as negligence, slovenly workmanship, bad timekeeping, etc. They did not do so.""

By suspending Burke for "Gross Misconduct" then frankly they have dealt a calumny to him that is extreme!! Burke is frankly overtaken by "Righteous anger" at the destruction of his good name by The Board. Where can I donate to his cause??

All that you said maybe true, it still does not give him the right to be on school property when he has been told not be.

 

[martybegan]

Whether he should have been placed on paid leave or not is a good discussion to have.

But he was not jailed for using the wrong pronoun, he was jailed for disobeying a court order. If your employer tells you to stay away for a while (and are paying you anyhow) then you are not allowed to go to work, it is that simple. He is lucky he was not charged with trespassing.

The use of the wrong pronoun was the root cause of the dispute.

All you are trying to do is be slick.

If the Board is in violation of the "disciplinary process" then frankly his suspension is invalid. Yes; it should have been dealt on its lack of merit the FIRST TIME, but it wasn't. The question is: Will Judge Quinn or the Full Bench order an investigation of Perjury for that initial flawed application. I am also wondering why the Church of Ireland Bishop (Anglican Communion) doesn't ask the Board to piss off!!!

Christian teacher imprisoned in Ireland after refusing to use transgender student's preferred pronouns | Blaze Media

A Christian teacher in Ireland who refused to use the preferred pronouns of a transgender student has been suspended and is now in jail for contempt of court. Enoch Burke was arrested on Monday for violating a court order to neither teach nor be physically present at Wilson's Hospital School in...

Fascism, not semi-fascism.

It's what they all voted for in Ireland and around the woke world, like Germans who voted for Nazis back in the day.

Make no mistake, democracy is how the National Socialists came to power.

That's not freedom that's fascism

Even if the board was wrong, so was the teacher for coming on school property when told not to. All he did was shoot his own case in the foot

 

[bigrebnc1775]

The fascist must defend the woke folks

 

[Harpy Eagle]

It's the root cause of why he was jailed.

No, the root cause of why he was jailed was for coming on private property he was told not to be on.

 

[gtopa1]

He was jailed for ignoring his employer telling him to stay off their property till they finished his case. He ignored them so they got a court order, which he ignored. He is lucky he was not charged with trespassing.

He "case" has ZERO legal standing as it was NOT "Gross Misconduct" as outlined in Irish Law. Yes; it SHOULD have been dealt with at the initial filing of the complaint, but it was not. Pity, but the High Court looking a the TOTALITY of the matter may find the board committed perjury.

That was the end result, not the root cause.

He was banned from the property due to the improper use of pronouns. And what actually happened is he was suspended/lost his job due to it.

It's amazing the lengths twats like you will go to to defend thoughtcrime prosecution.

I will defend the right of the school to do what it did all day long. Even if I do not agree with them, I will defend their right to do so.

But that is just something people like you will never be able to grasp

And if he had done what he was supposed to do he might have been able to show they were wrong.

But instead he choose instead to trespass where he was not allowed to be

 

[gtopa1]

Who gives a fuck. It is not why he was jailed.

Causality was perhaps proximate if not actual, but it determines liability and that was the bringing of a false charge of "gross misconduct" against Burke.

And then there is the true story.

Fact Check-Irish teacher Enoch Burke was jailed for contempt of court

Social media posts about an Irish secondary school teacher being jailed have misled users about why he was imprisoned. Although it is true that he was initially suspended from his school pending a disciplinary process over an alleged dispute involving a transgender student...

www.reuters.com

According to Irish media, which quoted Justice Michael Quinn, Burke was placed on paid administrative leave from Wilson’s Hospital School, County Westmeath, on Aug. 22, following an alleged dispute over the use of pronouns for a transgender student.

The suspension was pending the conclusion of a disciplinary process (here , here, here and here ).

The school’s Board of Management (BoM) later secured a temporary High Court order that prevented Burke from attending the school premises or teaching classes after he was said to not be adhering to the terms of his suspension.

On Sept. 5, Burke was found guilty of contempt of court for continuing to attend the school premises.

Suspended and told to stay away because he wouldn't call a hairy-ass gender confused dude a she?

Yeah, I don't see how that's better.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

And if he had done what he was supposed to do he might have been able to show they were wrong.

Not allowed to be there because he refused to play make believe.

I will defend the right of the school to do what it did all day long. Even if I do not agree with them, I will defend their right to do so.

You basically defend punishing ThoughtCrime, figures as much.

"He was in the wrong for ignoring the school ". No; the School lay a false charge of "Gross Misconduct" against Burke. Frankly I would fight such an allegation to the doors of hell and beyond if neccessary!!! Any person of integrity would. Without your good name you are frankly greatly diminished!!!

[gtopa1]

No; he was accused of "Gross Misconduct" and no way does it meet the requirements of the Law in Ireland. The Board perjured itself by claiming that was grounds to stop him from doing his job.
