Transgender row teacher Enoch Burke has failed in his bid to be released from Mountjoy Prison - after arguing that the disciplinary proceedings brought against him by the school were “unlawful and unconstitutional”.
The evangelical Christian has been in prison for over a week after he breached an injunction barring him from attending the school where he works.
Mr Burke’s dispute with Wilson’s Hospital School in Multyfarnham, Co Westmeath, began when staff were asked to refer to a student who wanted to transition with the they/them pronouns.
