John Waters is an Irish thinker, writer and speaker. Today, we discuss the release (not freedom) of Enoch Burke following more than 500 days in Mountjoy Prison, Dublin. What exactly he's taking a stand against; The developments around the huge migrant camp proposed for Athlone and why it has stalled. The rise in violence against women in Ireland, as a man who threatened violence is transferred to an all female prison in Northern Ireland because he claims to be a woman.

That was to be discussed but as we talked, we didn't get round to it. The conversations tend to take on a life of their own when they're being recorded; there's no editing and often things get covered that weren't planned and things get omitted that were planned. But good man for brining it up.

I look forward to it getting to the ECHR and winning hugely - Im guessing the Burkes will spend the money on proselytising with a particular preference for judges - a million euro for missionaries…..

There are Drug Dealers and people that have who have done serious physical harm to others who have not spent one day in prison, yet Enoch was in prison for standing up for innocent children, absolutely sickening.

@naradaian I always thought that prison was a place where people who break the law for whatever reason were sent to for their crimes. It now seems that prison is now a place where we send people such as Enoch who committed no crimes but a judge deemed it so. Our justice system is absolutely broken because of government influence and this needs to stop.

Thankyou Rick and John for that welcome helping of sanity. Enoch Burke is a hero. Respect to him. One thing I would question is that there has ever been a version of authority that represented the “will of the people” its an illusion and a contradiction in terms. Any authority renders the people subservient

These religion of human rights (DEI etc) has weeded it's way into every corner of Irish society. Anyone who works in a multinational must adhere to the principles of the DEI movement. How does one stand up for Enoch in today's society? People are too busy and distracted to protest, others in fear of being labeled something

A new society / new world has being quickly created where people are not meant to see, hear, speak or question anything. To only think about yourself and to never understand that there are others that may have a problem. And that has as a result, given so much incredible power to those very small few people at the top of everything, over everyone else.
