As ex-cleric Michael O’Flaherty begins his six-year crusade as one of Europe’s top human rights enforcers with a particular emphasis on combatting transphobia and migration reform, The Burkean examines his mission creep—and what it reveals about the deeper unraveling of supranational liberalism. https://www.theburkean.ie/articles/2025/07/24/europes-gender-czar-michael-oflaherty-the-ex-priest-wanting-to-make-gender-ideology-doctrine

The Burkean looks at the lobbying attempts of the IHREC against Department of Justice asylum reforms and asks, who really governs Ireland's borders? https://www.theburkean.ie/articles/2025/07/22/irelands-open-border-deep-state-how-the-ihrec-is-stacking-the-deck-against-border-reform

"The sea border is already the most agreeable of all the possible options, to all parties involved, except hardline Loyalists. This further weakens any argument in favour of co-operating with Loyalists. Hard border proponents have no legs to stand on.

The sea border solution manages to address the migration issue better than the hard border, has far fewer drawbacks, and pushes the Nationalist agenda forward rather than backwards. The Nationalist movement should call for a strengthening of an already existing border and the formal recognition of the border as such." https://www.theburkean.ie/articles/2025/07/11/borderline-treason-why-nationalists-should-push-for-an-irish-sea-border-on-migration
