Irish Government Freezes Christian Teacher’s Bank Account After He Refused to Use Gender-Neutral Pronouns

"What this is all about is an attempt to change the face of our country..."

The Irish government has frozen the bank account of an Irish teacher after his continued refusal to use gender-neutral pronouns for a student at Wilson’s Hospital School. Enoch Burke, who has spent more than 500 days in jail for refusing to comply with a court order, also had his salary payments halted.

Burke attempted to withdraw funds from his Bank of Ireland account last week but found that he was unable to access his money. The account reportedly holds over €40,000—his personal savings from years of work. The Irish government and courts have frozen these funds and are set to seize them next week.

Burke was previously jailed for contempt of court after refusing to comply with an injunction barring him from entering Wilson’s Hospital School, where he had been suspended following a dispute over the use of transgender pronouns.

The freezing of his bank account marks an unprecedented escalation in the legal battle. Burke maintains that he was upholding the Christian ethos of his school and acting according to his beliefs. The Irish courts have ruled against him at multiple stages, leading to fines, jail time, and now the freezing of his assets.

“What this is all about is an attempt to change the face of our country and to exalt LGBTQ+ ideology above Christian belief–to do away with religious belief altogether,” Burke said in a video update posted on X. “Children are being told they decide their gender. That is an anti-Christian belief.

“It’s not me that should be criminalised today, it’s any teacher that will stand in front of a class and will encourage young children to accept a belief that is anti-Christian,...”

That would be happening here right now if Trump had not won.

Remember when they claimed that “it doesn’t affect you?”

The next stop is to deny him shelter and food.

It's sad that over the years all those Irish people had to die to make Ireland more Britain than Britain.

Why is Trump and the State Dept not putting sanctions on the judge and all officials involved in this action? They should all be sanctioned for “deplorable human rights violations” and the Irish bank involved should be barred from using SWIFT like Russian banks, and all officials should be banned from travel to the US, among other restrictions.

Michael Yon talks about Ireland a lot.

He says the world’s elitists/socialists whatever they are, are working hard to completely replace the Irish with 3rd worlders.

FYI…years ago I had a brilliant young woman working for me, she had a sister and they were both beautiful redheads (her sister actually was a good friend of my daughter) the natural almost neon like red in the sun you see sometimes. Anyway her family went to Ireland and she said in the cities they were oddities. People actually would stop look at them and take pics.

Because they were redheads…in Ireland. that’s rare now apparently ??

Immigrants are supposedly a flood now compared to then just a decade ago.

I thank God that my maternal grandparents left Ireland and came to America at the end of the 19th century. Same goes for my paternal grandparents who left Italy in the early 20th century.

Movie Kill the Irishman, which everyone should see.

A few firecrackers , is that all you got? It’ll take more than that to kill Johnny Green. (After 36 bombs including a time delay one in his car as he was driving in town.) Movie has Christopher Walken. ‘Nuff said.

European governments are totalitarian garbage. I think that America needs to push for European revolution. The first action should be the bomb the WEF when it’s in session at Davos.

I hate to break it to you, but that's what they've done by taking away his money. Without money you can't pay for a roof and you can't pay for food unless someone gives it to you.

Yes, but I’m sure he has supporters who will help him out. Until the Government makes THAT a crime too.

One of the reason why so many are pushing for a move to government-controlled digital currencies.

I’m starting to root for Russia because whatever Putin may be, he’s neither Muslim nor trans-crazy.
