Irish taxpayers are being forced to pay massive a compensation bill — costing each worker an average of €355 — for supposed historic abuse that never happened. Government officials estimate that the compensation scheme will have a final cost €800 million. However, these are probably the same people who estimated that the Ryan Commission would cost €2.5 million, but it ended up costing the taxpayer c. €82 million. A massive under estimation, but it was dwarfed by the final bill.
The Ryan commission investigated abuse at industrial schools, awarded €970 million in compensation, spent a further €176 million on health, housing, educational and counselling services, incurred a legal bill of €192.9 million, while the running of the commission itself cost €82 million, giving a grand total of near one and a half billion Euro (€1.43 billion). Consequently, the cost to every single worker in Ireland was €700 each on average.
The commission of investigation into mother and baby homes stated in its final report that ‘there is no evidence of the sort of gross abuse that occurred in industrial schools’. The Irish, being Irish, chose to ignore the evidence, commission reports and plain old common-sense. The scandal promoters have had the luck of the devil to pursue their agenda for compo at a time, when we have in situ, probably the most inept government in the history of the nation. It seeks to punish the citizens of the country for historical events that never happened. Imagine working hard, paying tax and the government spending it foolishly. Perish such thoughts.
Catherine Corless has put into the public domain the records of children who died at the Tuam Children’s Home but with significant omissions. Had these relevant details been included it would certainly have removed the potential from the media and others to have added their excitable and incompetent interpretation to state death records.
Corless claimed to have uncovered evidence of neglect and abuse at the Tuam Children’s Home when she found that 796 death certificates — mainly those of infant deaths — occurred at the home between 1925 and 1961. I have now acquired copies of all the 796 death certificates — plus one, which the registrar missed — and can now put back into the public record the missing information.
Corless admits to not being ‘an historian’ and her lack of skill and erudition are evident in her reporting of the historic deaths at the Tuam Children’s Home. To her credit, she has decried, in public, on several occasions, her media conferred title of ‘historian’, as she has no qualifications to use the title. In the early days of the Tuam scandal the media occasionally referred to Mrs Corless as an ‘amateur historian’ but quickly dropped it use for fear it would take the fire out of the story, and of course the use of the full qualification was to imply expertise to lend fake credibility to their fake news.
Therein lies the kernel of the Tuam scandal. Either there are no historians in Ireland with expertise in historic medicine or such was the level of abuse, hysteria and media censorship that all our competent academic historians were kept silent. There were one or two with no expertise in historic medicine who eventually weighed in on the side of scandal promoters. Alarmingly however, their personal, political agendas combined with Irish self-loathing ran riot in a system devoid of functioning quality control measures.
Care was provided not just to unmarried mothers.
The deaths of 78 children who were born to married parents are recorded as having occurred at the Tuam Children’s home. The institution was officially called St. Mary’s Children’s Home, Tuam. Every single record in the state register either refers to it under its official title or simply as ‘Children’s Home’. All the genuine historical sources show that the intuition functioned as a refuge for women and children. It had a hospital, and the Bon Secours order were highly regarded order of nurses. The order opened and operated another hospital in Tuam for decades and not one single hint of what was supposed to have happened in the neighbouring institution has been reported by the media.
The Tuam Children’s Home has been renamed anachronistically to a ‘mother and baby home’ to mislead the public and further a 21st century agenda.
The vast majority of mothers gave their occupation as ‘domestic servant’, sometimes abbreviated to ‘domestic’. Three children who died were those of ‘Travellers’. Other occupations include one schoolteacher and one actress. However, the second biggest cohort are recorded as the daughters of farmer’s and labourers.
Children born to married parents also died at the Tuam Children’s Home. Again, the vast majority of fathers were farmers or labourers. Other occupations which appear on the registers include, one mechanic, one hawker, two sons of soldiers, two children of tinsmiths, and three children of factory workers.
Poverty
Poverty remains the most significant factor in high infant mortality rates across the globe today. The occupations of all the mothers and fathers recorded are to cohorts of people most likely to have been living in extreme poverty
All deaths certified by a doctor.
All deaths which occurred at the Tuam Children’s Home were certified by a medical doctor and the details contained of these certificates were duly entered on the state register.
Only four deaths out of the 797 were not marked as being certified by a doctor. These were all due to scribal omissions. When a doctor has not certified a death, registrars are required to record it on the register, usually using the phrase ‘no medical attendant’. As both of the required phrases are omitted it can only be due to an error on behalf of the person recording the details on the register.
The omissions occurred in the years 1926, 32, 38 and 1954. The first three record that John Shine was the Assistant Registrar acting under John Nohilly, Registrar. The latter occurred under Assistant Registrar Luke J. Fox.
Registrar entries are written in by hand and many different writing styles are observable of the years. These are entries made by various clerks working at the office of the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages at Tuam, Co. Galway.
Galway and Mayo County Councils funded the Tuam Children’s Home, but children were there from other counties.
Galway children outnumbered children from Mayo by over two to one. Co. Clare ranked third. Deaths of children form the following counties were also recorded: Co. Sligo, Co. Leitrim, Co. Roscommon, Co. Westmeath and Co. Offaly.
Disappeared Mothers!
According to a group representing former residents of the Tuam home — quoting Catherine Corless as the source — claim that ‘6 single mothers, aged between 24 and 42, died in the Tuam Home between1925 to 1961 and remain unaccounted for’. They name these women as: Annie O’Donoghue, Mary Curran, Mary Joyce Costelloe, Brigid Reilly, Margaret Henry and Annie Roughneen. The source for this information is not given.
Obviously, the sources used by Catherine Corless do not include the official register where all the other certificates are located, and which she obtained.
Let’s look up the state registers for these disappeared women.
Two women named Anne Donoghue died in the district of Tuam between 1925 and 196. None of these women was of childbearing age. There are no listings for Annie O’Donoghue or any variants of the surname.
Sixteen women named Mary Costello died in the district of Tuam between 1925 and 1961. Three of them were of childbearing age at the time of their death and none are recorded at the children’s home. Mary Costello(e) did not die at the home in Tuam.
Five women named Mary Curran died in the district of Tuam between 1925 and 1967. All aged in their 70s and not of childbearing age.
Seven women named Brigid Reilly died in the district of Tuam between 1925 and 196. One of them died age 32 at the children’s home hospital from measles, oedema of the lungs and pneumonia. Her death was certified by a medical doctor and duly entered on the state register.
One woman named Margaret Henry died in the district of Tuam between 1925 and 1961. She died at the children’s home hospital from nephritis and cardiac failure Her death was certified by a medical doctor and duly entered on the state register.
Two women named Annie Roughneen died in the district of Tuam between 1925 and 1961. Both of them died at the children’s home hospital. Annie aged 42 died of pulmonary tuberculosis. Her daughter also named Annie died 15 days earlier from congenital debility. Both deaths were certified by a medical doctor and duly entered on the state register.
Clearly neither Catherine Corless nor the Tuam group looked up the register and based their opinion that women ‘remain unaccounted for’ not of evidence but on fanciful notions. Moreover, they missed the death certificates of at least three other women.
Catherine Corless accumulated 796 death certificates with the help of an official at the office of the Registrar for Births, deaths and Marriages. The official missed out on at least one death certificate. I can confirm that the total number of death certificates is at least 797.
Thick person certifying deaths!
Journalist and author Allison O’Reilly speaking at an event in October 2019 stated:
The people in the home were signing certificates were former residents. Bina Rabbitte was a former resident of the home. I wouldn’t expect her to be educated. She had no medical experience. So am probably no proper life skills.. she spent her whole life in the home..
The name Bina Rabbitte is recorded as the ‘informant’ on nearly every death certificate from 1939 to 1960. The informant is the person who goes to the registrar’s office to report a death and have it entered on the register. If they present the registrar with a note stating the cause of death along with the recognised signature of a medical doctor, the officials enter the details on the register and use the word ‘certified’ under the column titled ‘Certified Cause of Death and Duration of Illness’.
Bina Rabbitte never certified a single death but O’Reilly’s absence of basic knowledge of state registers is abundantly evident. Moreover, that absence of knowledge and skill is behind many more claims which make use of use the imagination and not evidence.
To the best of my knowledge no one — until now — has gone through Catherine Corless’ 796 death certificates and checked if they were reported accurately and to see if they contain any evidence of abuse. Her published list contains the occasional transcription errors but the biggest error by far was not what she chose to publish, but what she left out. It was perhaps accidental and inept, but our academic historians should have spoken out at the earliest opportunity. That is of course using the assumption that Ireland possesses academic historians with the capability to produce work based on quality analysis.
The human mind detests gaps in knowledge so much that it will fill them in using assumptions. Assumptions are a vital part of human intellectual endeavour but experts — before they become experts — are taught to look hard for evidence and not to lazily rely on assumptions until all evidential trails have been exhausted. Such endeavour is beyond the capability of most people who make assumptions without the knowledge to know were to look for evidence.
From 1925 to 1960, 13,431 illegitimate children died but ten times as many legitimate children died, all from the same causes and diseases. Why have our ‘new historians’ not gone is search of those who killed 132,387 children who were unfortunate enough to be born to married parents during the same period.
A wise person makes their own decisions, an ignorant person follows public opinion.
Below are the names of the infants and children along with the cause of their death copied from their death certificates. All of these 796 deaths were certified by a medical doctor and entered on the Irish stat’s register of Births, Deaths and Marriages in accordance with the law. Some people have made out that they were murdered, and their bodies dumped in a septic tank. It is of course a ludicrous opinion for it requires that the women running the Tuam Children’s Home to have been in the business of baby disposal, despite the fact that Irish mothers and their families were perfectly capable of murdering their own unwanted infants.
The fact is that acute hospitals have higher mortality statistics because the deal with high-risk patients. This is known as a ‘hospital effect’ in statistics. Raw statistics are not used to draw inferences about the standards of care anywhere outside of Ireland. Amateurs do not know of the perils involved in statistical analysis and are therefore bound to make false and inept conclusions. Professionals on the other hand, adjust raw statistics to tun the data into a more usable form. Risk adjusted data sets take into account risk factors such as ‘patient age, sex, type of admission, year of discharge, comorbidity, deprivation and diagnosis’, especially when dealing with hospital mortality rates.
When the mortality statistics are adjusted for risk-factors, there is nothing unusual about the number of deaths at the Tuam Children’s Home, which are in fact a lot lower than would have been expected. The inferences drawn from raw statistics that infants were mistreated, neglected and murdered is due entirely to the nescience of the scandal propagators, their overcompensation for social deficits and of course the naïve people who take people at face value without realising that seeking notoriety — for certain classes of people — outweighs society’s normal requirement for honesty.

Article No 2 in the series of a commentary on Alternative Mother and Baby Homes Report, authored by 21 Irish legal academics and one sociologist.
Exaggeration is the pillar of comedy, we can all spot it, and the resultant absurdity is so unrealistic, it causes laughter. In the area of science concerned with studying the behaviour of persuasion, exaggeration has also been shown to damage credibility. Consequently, exaggeration diminishes the credibility of the story being told, and the more exaggerated a claim is, the closer it is to falsehood. Outside Ireland, lawyers are taught that using exaggeration to hide bad facts or weak arguments will fool no one. Yet at least 22 teachers of law at Irish universities have produced and published a document thinking that exaggeration will bolster their claims, unaware of its potential to create comedy. Quality argument based on genuine facts are strong enough to stand on their own, especially in a functioning intellectual tradition, which is its most powerful instrument of persuasion. [Read the first article here]
Chores exaggerated into charges of slave labour Nearly every inpatient or inmate of an institution — worldwide —in the past were given chores to do. Today such chores are titled ‘occupational therapy’ as sitting idle all day is conducive to poor mental health. These chores like making one’s own bed, doing one’s own laundry, preparing food and feeding one’s own infant are now falsely made out to be ‘slave labour’. The same domestic duties which women and girls would be ‘forced’ to do at home they did in institutions. It is not considered slave labour in the past, nor it is not slave labour today. It’s a gross exaggeration, the type which has no business in academic work and would be thrown out with the garbage in any educational system which had functioning quality control mechanisms.
The slavery claims could not pass muster in any generation which came before the recent generations of leisure. At the tender age of five Ireland’s president, Michael D. Higgins and his younger brother were sent to live on his uncle’s farm. They performed the chores that every child was expected to perform.[1] Males were given physically harder work than females, all in keeping with their perceived strengths and abilities. If one is going to redefine this unpaid work as slave labour, then Michael D., myself and millions of others will be entitled to claim to be victims and claim compensation from the taxpayers. The beauty is of course that the leisure generations will be paying the compo.
The slave labour exaggeration evinces the presence of perniciousness in the motivation of some academics, but it can also occur due to innocence. People who grew up in an affluent society, with massive amounts of leisure time, who were not expected to do unpaid chores, will find it difficult to imagine long hours of hard work expected of everyone — not just children — to earn their keep and improve their lot. Michael D. secondary school education was not free. His graft as a young boy and that of his relatives financed his education and his success.
Those generations who endured so much, and worked so hard, that the following generation would have a better life than they, are now pilloried as backward and misogynistic. The reality is that most of Ireland’s academics, for generations back, are there because of the hard graft of their pauper ancestors. They are mere social climbers parroting the prejudices of the elite to social elite to obfuscate their ancestral poverty.
One thing is clear to all who read the alternative report, that the intended target is the church and religious women. The authors fail to distinguish between conditions in secular run institutions (County Homes) and in religious run institutions. Accordingly, the authors miss the opportunity to report the most pertinent of the commission’s findings regarding work, that ‘no mother and baby home inflicted a workload on the mothers comparable to that in county homes’.[2]
The commission states clearly and presents the evidence in abundance that women were far better off in religious run institutions than in the secular variety. However, the commission themselves at times over overstate the workload in County Homes, viewing such work through the eyes of the wealthiest generations in Irish history. Generations who never had to do chores, have no experience of living in unsanitary households, have never slept in the same room as cattle, have never slept in an open dormitory or a long ward, have never used or do not know what a chamber pot or bourdaloue is, have never done the laundry or washed seed in ‘Chamber lye’ (made from urine and wood ash), have never got a bite from typhus carrying louse, and so on.
If that were not bad enough, most academic research is conducted by people who have never been out of school and have no life experience beyond a middle-class upbringing. There is little chance of such individuals being able to comprehend the living conditions of the past without extensive education. That education should be available, especially within the teaching of history. However, it is not available because many Irish people are embarrassed to admit the conditions which their forebearers lived in. It is still not unusual to spot, at graduation day, humble parents, of humble origin, who sacrificed much and worked hard to gift their offspring a college education. Such graduates have been injected into a new class and are keen to disavow their parents and origins for fear that their fellow big knobs will look down on them. Of course, many of their new cohort are of similar humble origins, have similar fears and illusory is reinforced by the group. The upshot is that college graduates are very poorly equipped to be able to analyse historical evidence, and it is abundantly evident in both the official commission report and in the alternative academic report.
Diane B. Kraft College of Law at the University of Kentucky writes that ‘many authors of books on legal writing advise law students not to exaggerate when writing fact statements and arguments in briefs’. […]
If the facts or arguments are on your side, you don’t need to exaggerate them to win. If they’re not, you’re not going to fool anyone by trying to hide bad facts or a weak argument with exaggerated claims about your client’s or the opposing party’s case. Writers use hyperbole thinking it will bolster their arguments, but it often has the opposite effect of signalling to the reader that the facts or arguments are so weak, the writer can’t rely on them alone to win. [3]
If teachers of law at American universities can see the perils of exaggeration, why are their counterparts in Ireland not in possession of such knowledge? That in turn leads to big question, are the clients of Irish lawyers badly served?
As I was writing this article, an article appeared in the Irish Times giving bodice to judges who were complaining about the quality of the work of many barristers. They accused them of making claims without any corroborating evidence and submitting documentary evidence below the required quality standards.
Mr Justice John Edwards sitting in the Court of Appeal said, ‘the practice of barristers giving evidence on a hearsay basis without providing corroboration is “happening all the time” and “has to stop”.’[4]
I think that is a strong indication that Irish universities — for decades — have not been training their lawyers properly, and it has gone full circle where badly trained law graduates have now become badly trained law teachers.

Numpties beware! A rhetorical technique in use. (see below)
Recent research conducted by the investigative historian Eugene Jordan during 2020 has found that infant mortality rates at the old Rahoon Parish in Galway city, during the 1950s, were extremely high and were multiples of the national infant mortality rate. The parish was known — for almost a century before — to have had higher than average infant mortality rates and higher mortality rates in general.
Several survivors have suggested that the high rates were due to the operation of up to three illegal chemical plants concealed within the enclosures of several private gardens. A newly formed group of survivors have written to the government seeking the establishment of a commission of investigation.
Cancer deaths across all ages were also recorded at much higher levels than the national average. Based on these statistics, some experts have suggested that because areas of the parish are known to have high levels of cancer-causing radon gas, that it might go some way to explaining the cause. However, they point out that the levels are so high that it lends credence to the illegal chemical plants theories and have called for an investigation at the highest level.
In 1958, according to the Report of the Registrar General, Galway County had a standardised mortality rate from cancer of 1.5 per 1,000 of the population which was lower than the national average of 1.64 per 1,000 population. However, the rates in Rahoon parish were estimated at 6.5 deaths per 1,000 of the population.
In response, the Taoiseach Micheál Martin has described the discovery of high infant mortality rates as ‘distressing’. The Tánaiste Leo Varadkar said that because Ireland was a deeply misogynistic nation, at that time, the increased mortality might be an indication of something more sinister.
The commission was established in October 2020 and published its final report the following week. It was the speediest commission of investigation and most competent ever established in the history of the Irish state. The commission found that the high infant mortality rates were due to the presence of a maternity hospital within the parish. Higher rates of death — multiples of the national average — from all other diseases were also recorded. The commission found that the ‘alarming’ mortality rates were due to the presence of a regional hospital in the parish. People would have died elsewhere — had there not been a hospital in Rahoon parish — have their place of death recorded on their death certificate, and hospitals have so many deaths that many have their own morgue. This is known to statisticians as the ‘hospital effect’.
Prior to the building of a Regional Hospital, Rahoon parish had a large workhouse on the same site, where many poor, unfortunate residents passed away causing high mortality rates to be recorded.
Citizens of Ireland would reasonably expect that its government would appoint people to a commission of investigation — investigating high mortality rates — to have expertise in interpreting medical statistics, have a knowledge of basic medical science, have studied or at least looked up the current scientific literature on the causes of high infant mortality rates.
The moral of the story! It is easy to draw excitable conclusions from statistics, but the scurrilous misinformation emitted by bluffers and fluffers dominates due to poor educational standards in Ireland. Evident throughout the system, from its universities right down to its kindergarten schools.
To the commission of investigation into mother and baby homes, namely Judge Yvonne Murphy, Barrister William Duncan and Historian Mary E Daly, may I respectfully suggest you read the Complete Idiot’s Guide to Medical Statistics. Then apologise for your mistakes and wild accusations that you all made against certain Irish women.

“Satire often reveals the absurdity of the world, but when people miss the joke, they become part of the comedy.” – G.K. Chesterton
Reductio ad absurdum is rhetorical technique where an argument or a proposition is intentionally taken to an extreme and absurd conclusion to highlight the flaws, contradictions, or absurdities within the argument or proposition. It’s often used to demonstrate the illogical or undesirable consequences of a particular line of reasoning, making a point by showing how impractical or absurd the argument becomes when taken to its logical extreme.
A violation of law is one thing but accusing people of violating laws which don’t exist or did not exist in the past, is considered to be such an abuse of power that the constitution of many countries, including Ireland, prevents their governments from enacting such laws — legally termed ex post facto law.[1] Surprisingly, a small band of Irish academics chose to ignore a primary pillar of justice and accuse people — mostly women — back in history of committing crimes and abuses, based, seemingly on the standards of today but mostly using completely imagined non-existent standards and laws. Moreover, they appear to have rode roughshod over the constitutional protection conferred on Irish citizens from unjust attack on their reputation. It affirms their right to a good name and requires that they must be given an opportunity for vindication when unjust attacks occur.[2]
Twenty-three authors — all but one connected to academic law faculties — got together to write and produce a report based on an alternative interpretation of the Final Report of the Commission of Investigation into Mother and Baby Homes. Unhappy with the commission’s findings, the academics decided to reinterpret it using the prism of present-day human rights law and feminism. Oddly enough, ex post facto laws are prohibited by Article 7 of the European Convention on Human Rights and in Article 15 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. Also, ex post facto legislation may also violate citizens’ right to effective legal redress and a fair trial, which is laid down in Article 47 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. As we shall see, if they are using human rights laws, they seem to have been very selective in which human rights laws to use.
While the alternative report is not a piece of legislation, it attempts to castigate people of the past in a manner which is prohibited by law, including human rights law. It is, however, a crime against history and as I shall demonstrate, the report contains an embarrassment of riches in terms of poor-quality thinking, bias, prejudice and of course the now customary academic lack of joined-up thinking.
Surprisingly, these academics have applied the exact same burden of proof to wild and fantastical allegations which was applied to similar evidence at Salem Courthouse in 1692 and 93. Moreover, the report is peppered with exaggeration and imagined transgressions of non-existent laws which have not only passed but passed the threshold of credulity but with such speed, that many of its claims disappear beyond the horizon into the dominion of the preposterous.
To cite a couple of examples, the authors state that because there was no access to contraception and abortion it was ‘almost impossible to avoid unwanted pregnancy’. Yet today, with easy access to contraception, Irish women got rid of 13,243 babies in the last two years alone. More than all the children who died over the period of 76 years examined by the commission. Clear evidence that access to birth control does not eliminate the problem of unwanted pregnancy. Further emphasised by the fact that in countries where contraception was easily available, they too had high numbers of unwanted pregnancies.
The truth is that throughout history most Irish women avoided unwanted pregnancies through abstinence, the rhythm method, coitus interruptus and contraception.
The statute books contained a ban on contraception but that does not mean that contraception was not available. Even today, Irish society has access to many commodities which are technically illegal to possess — and are available in abundance — like cannabis, cocaine, laundered diesel fuel, cigarettes and tobacco ad inf. In times past, that list of widely available contraband included condoms.
The contraceptive pill was first approved for use in the United States in May 1960, but it was not until 1965 that it became legal for married couples to use any type of contraception. Unmarried couples had to wait until 1972 to be able to legally purchase and use contraceptives. Seven years later, Ireland also removed its ban on contraception. However, oral contraception was in wide use in Ireland since the 1960s as a ‘cycle regulator’. To get ‘on the pill’, all a woman had to do was go to the doctor and say she was having irregular or heavy periods. The reality is that the contraceptive pill was heavily prescribed by Irish doctors during the 1960s and 70s.[3]
A common problem among young academic researchers is their tendency to use the false assumption that prohibitions on the statute books reflects reality on the ground. For example, abortion was outlawed until recently but that did not stop Irish women from sending 176,785 babies up the abortion clinic chimneys in the UK and The Netherlands from 1980 to 2020. Moreover, research presented to the Oireachtas revealed that 54% of Irish women who aborted their child abroad were using contraception at the time of conception.[4]
The assumption that without access to contraception it was ‘almost impossible to avoid unwanted pregnancy’ is not based on evidence. It is an exaggeration at best, and at worst is an indicator of bias, either carried out deliberately or it may have been accidental, caused by a lack of knowledge in general and in particular of competent research methods and presentation. That said, the most likely explanation is that any evidence which had the potential to weaken or contradict the authors’ intended conclusions was deliberately excluded and this motivation is palpable throughout the ‘alternative report’.
‘The State did not offer adequate financial support to unmarried single mothers to enable them to live independently.’
No state did so until relatively recently. This is a clear use of the logical fallacy of presentism, Irish exceptionalism and the inability to make valid comparisons. A barefaced attempt to put blinkers on the reader leading them to think that because we have such payments today, we should have had them before they were introduced. One would reasonably expect that academics would be in possession of critical thinking ability and be able to validly compare systems of care in Ireland to those in other countries. Leaving out information makes Ireland appear to be an exception. The truth is that the Irish state, like many other states, made valiant efforts to get the father to support his child. The problem was that it was practically impossible to prove paternal parenthood.
The alternative report makes no attempt at balance and cherry picks from the commission’s report, taking unsubstantiated allegations and using phrases out of context, which are then presented to the readers as convincing evidence. However, impartial readers will be forced to compare and contrast the opinions expressed by the authors of the report with the commission’s report. A daunting task and not for the feint hearted.
Moreover, testimony from witnesses who had good things to say about mother and baby homes are completely ignored. A clear use of the logical fallacy called ‘Suppressed Evidence’. In fact, almost the full gamut of logical fallacies can be found spread throughout the report, and those of you who like to fish for red herrings are in for a feast. Worse than that is the barefaced attempt to mislead readers using anachronistic phrases and concepts which are brand spanking new, quixotic and pseudo academic. Take for example the use of the dysphemism ‘Obstetric Violence’.
Medical Violence – That’ll teach you a lesson.
As a child I found myself in A&E on a few occasions the result of sport injuries or from acting the maggot. On practically every occasion many nurses, and sometimes doctors, used a phrase like ‘that will teach you a lesson’. In other words, remember the pain you are now suffering the next time you climb a tree, jump of a wall or crash your bike. All of the comments were said with good intentions, and it was a very common. Today our academics have interpreted such comments as abuse. That’s right, it is now considered degrading treatment to tell anyone to remember their pain as a way to deter future injury and modify their behaviour.
They falsely try to make out that unmarried women, unlike married women were refused pain relief during childbirth, a claim dismissed by the commission, but to save face had to be reinstated using the term ‘obstetric violence’. If there is such a thing then all women who gave birth until relatively recently are victims of such violence. Why are the academics not defending the ‘human rights’ of millions of married women and arguing that the state should compensate them?
The commission report states:
Painkillers were not widely used either in home or hospital births. There is no evidence that the women who gave birth in mother and baby homes were denied pain relief or other medical interventions that were available to a public patient who gave birth in a Dublin or Cork maternity unit. There is evidence of women in mother and baby homes being given pain relief, and being stitched following birth.[5]
The term ‘obstetric violence’ dates from as recently as 2007, a concept which was not in existence during the period of time investigated by the commission from 1922 to 1998.[6] There was no such thing as ‘obstetric violence’, therefore no one can be accused of committing a crime which did not exist. Moreover, the use of such terminology in this case suggests it was used to support a misrepresentation of the facts.
I will wager that these academic authors were well aware of ex post facto law which requires that no one can stand accused of a crime which did not exist at the time of the alleged offence. Accordingly, the misuse of ex post facto allegations reveals much about the motivations of the authors. It could be a lack of education, but ignorance is seldom a good defence, even in a court of law.
Exaggeration is a corner stone of comedy, think of Maxwell Smart on a triple double secret mission or the triple secret probation placed on the occupants of Animal House, both comedic works lampooning childish exaggerations. Although of slightly less comedic value, lawyers regularly and keenly exaggerate the truth to support the advancement of their case. However, the use of exaggeration evinces an inherent weakness of the argument. The degree of weakness is inversely proportional to the amount of exaggeration. In other words, the stronger the exaggeration, the weaker the argument. Skilful lawyers would be cautious of stretching credulity beyond the limits set by credibility, especially in front of an erudite audience. Accordingly, for the less erudite, the credibility threshold is further out in the distance but when it is exceeded it creates the perception that the allegations in question are untrue and quixotic. Evidently the alternative report authors do not expect the claims in their report to be tested in front of an erudite body of people and this may account for why caution appears to have been thrown to the wind.
The final report of the commission of investigation into mother and baby homes runs to nearly three thousand pages because it contains quite a number of transcripts of statements made by witnesses. This has provided the ‘alternative report’s’ authors with a fertile ground to try and twist comments made in these statements into findings of the commission. Readers who have not read the actual report are particularly prone to being misled and guided into the belief that the commission accepted the witness’ testimony as fact. However, the commission did at least subject some testimony to a basic test for truthfulness.
The commission state:
A number of witnesses gave evidence that was clearly incorrect. This contamination probably occurred because of meetings with other residents and inaccurate media coverage.[7]
‘Inaccurate media coverage’ is a polite term for false stories, fake news, speculation and conjecture presented to the public in the guise of factual information. The commission of investigation investigated a number of these stories and found that they had no basis in fact. The journalists who wrote and published such stories clearly do not have the ability to fact check information nor do their editors appear to be bothered about disseminating quality information. The evidence would suggest that they are far more concerned with making bucks through the use of sensationalism. Libelling the dead carries far less risk than libelling the living, in fact it occurs with such frequency that it must be facilitating a lucrative income stream which is irresistible to financially struggling news organisations. It may also account for the decline in standards evident in the output of media organisations, even those once considered ‘quality news’ or a ‘paper of record’ are now — in a battle for survival — forced to engage in populist gutter journalism.
It is no surprise to find — in the alternative report — journalists unconcerned with / or unable to fact check stories, listed as ‘expert readers’. Clearly the title ‘expert’ has been awarded to many people on the list who would not have been deemed to have reached the required threshold of skill to be declared an ‘expert’, even by applying a basic standard of competency. The people chosen, — who were elevated to lofty heights by being conferred with the title ‘expert’ — is a means to an end. There is no attempt to get at the truth but there appears to be clear intent to hoodwink the public and politicians.
False allegations and false stories abound in the Irish media and are never subjected to critical analysis. The Irish media will simply not publish any criticism which could potentially dismiss wild claims nor contradict what they have put forward as evidence which is not evidence.
The Irish media misled the world’s media in claiming that children were starved to death at Irish mother and baby homes. They were egged on by many politicians who made similar claims about the protestant run Bethany mother and baby home in Dublin. Behind the scurrilous claims was the use of the term ‘marasmus’ as a cause of death on a number of infant death certificates. Marasmus is a general term for a form of malnutrition which is diagnosed from the appearance of the patient, the dryness of its skin and brittleness of its hair. It is mainly caused by a failure of the patient’s digestive system to absorb sufficient nutrients to sustain life. The term was never used by Irish doctors to indicate that children were starved to death. Using the term marasmus to indicate starvation through a lack in the provision of food is a medically incompetent analysis but is repeated with alacrity in the alternative report.
The commission of investigation state:
…marasmus as a cause of death was cited when an infant failed to thrive due to malabsorption of essential nutrients due to an underlying, undiagnosed medical condition.
All the maternity hospitals in the country have records of infants dying from marasmus but none of these institutions has been accused of abuse and murder by the media nor is the issue presented in anything approaching an erudite commentary in the alternative report.
The commission found that there was no abuse at mother and baby homes, but the alternative report authors reiterate that abuse took place despite the complete lack of evidence. The authors rely entirely on comments made by former residents which were not subjected to even an elementary test for truthfulness.
Chancers are ten a penny in Ireland and when hundreds of thousands and tens of thousands of Euro are on offer as compensation, many chancers will appear out of the woodwork. Moreover, even if no compensation was on offer, chancers would still be in the foray as notoriety just as potent. Compensation and notoriety are such powerful forces that when either is present allegations must be subjected to proper investigation. Many allegations have been reported to the Gardaí (police) who cannot take action against persons or organisations because there is no evidence to support any of the charges.
False allegations are nothing new and are far more common that we realise. During the recent floods in Germany during the summer of 2021, many people on social media — even those with good intentions — spread the fake news that the bodies of 600 children were found when the flood waters receded. The German news station DW investigated the false story and quotes Andre Wolf, a communications expert who works at the Austrian fact-checking site Mimikama:
Babies and children are recurring themes in conspiracy theories, as they provide a simple way to dehumanize enemies such as elites or the government. “The worst thing that these enemies can be accused of is torturing or killing children,” Wolf said, explaining that this allegation triggered a protective mechanism, a sort of primal instinct, among believers. “People tend to share these messages, get caught up in them and get angry,” he said, adding that they then become less inhibited and more prone to attacking their enemies, such as the state. “The idea is to radicalize people.”[8]
In 2014 in Britain, Carl Beech reported to police that as a child he was sexually abused by a paedophile ring, which included high profile members of the British establishment like former Prime Minister Ted Heath, former Home Secretary Leon Brittan, the then chief of the defence staff Lord Bramall. He further claimed that he had witnessed the murder of three boys, killed for sexual pleasure. Beech even supplied the names of two real boys, one had disappeared without trace in the late 1970s and the other who was abducted and murdered but the case was unsolved. The Metropolitan police took the allegations to be credible and launched a police investigation.
Beech’s allegations were entirely false, and in 2018 he was charged with 12 counts of perverting the course of justice, one of fraud and other charges relating to child abuse offences which he had committed. He was convicted and sentenced to 18 years in prison.
Beech’s motivations included, to a small degree, financial compensation and to a much higher degree, notoriety. He received £22,000 in compensation even though there was no evidence to support his claims. More importantly for him, was achieving a rise in social status through notoriety. He wanted to become an international speaker as a ‘survivor’ of child abuse.
Prior to the publication of the commission’s final report and having made allegations or supported allegations where there is no evidence to support them, has left these academics in a rather embarrassing position.
They have been exposed by the commission as being naive at best or without the skillset to able to spot false stories. They have — mostly subconsciously — allowed their own personal prejudices to blind them to reality. Such a sticky situation requires three possible solutions. 1. Admit their mistakes and apologise. 2. Ignore it all and hope it is forgotten in years to come. 3. Attempt to repudiate the findings of the commission.
Irish universities have ben involved in ‘grade inflation’ for decades and so bad has the issue become that it has drawn commentary from the President of Ireland.[9] In effect Irish university authorities have made exams easier to pass to create the impression of increasing educational standards. In reality it has achieved the opposite and the fall in standards is palpable in all the professions. Many Irish graduates are forced overseas to find work while large multinational companies, based in Ireland, are forced to hire in talent from overseas. Despite having decades to respond to changes in the market, universities have been unable to supply the type of talent required.
Clearly talent and expertise are absent in this ‘alternative report’ and so it will stand as a monument to poor Irish education standards and a road marker on the journey to the bottom. Rock bottom, however, remains in the distance. It will not be hit until Irish universities begin the process of reform. There is no evidence that that will happen any time soon.
Work in Progress– the report contains such an embarrassment of riches that it will take time to examine and report them all. It is a challenge which will take time but keep an eye out here…. more…. much more to come.

The commission of investigation into mother and baby homes named the following people for conducting vaccine trials on children without obtaining permission. The trials were carried out through an arrangement with doctors in charge of various mother and baby homes. The authorities who ran these homes had no idea that children in their care were subjected to clinical trials. Yet they are falsely made to shoulder the blame, when in fact it is the universities who should get all the blame and pay compensation. However, not one has bothered to issue an apology since they were named in the commission report released in January 2021.
Professor Patrick Meenan Department of Medical Microbiology, University College, Dublin
Dr Irene Hillery, Department of Medical Microbiology, University College, Dublin
Dr Victoria Coffey, Trinity College, Dublin the first female president of the Irish Paediatric Association, the paediatric section of the Royal Academy of Medicine in Ireland, the Royal College of Surgeons of Ireland (RCSI)
Dr Margaret Dunleavy, the first female president of the Biological Society of the Royal College of Surgeons of Ireland
The commission concludes that in many of the trials conducted by these university researchers:
There was no import licence in place for the vaccine.
The researchers did not have a research licence which covered research carried out in the children’s institutions.
There is no evidence that consent was properly sought or received.
The results of the trial were not published.
In 1968: Dr Victoria Coffey, ran a trials of Glaxo Laboratories measles vaccine, at Pelletstown, Dublin. The commission say of this trial:
34.124 It is clear that this trial did not conform to the ethical and regulatory standards in place at the time. There is no evidence that Dr Coffey applied for or received a research licence under the Therapeutic Substances Act. There is no evidence that the relevant consents were sought or given.
Dr Victoria Coffey was also the institutional medical officer at Pelletstown and facilitated other vaccine trials:
34.70 The Commission has seen no documentary evidence to suggest that the researchers informed the matron or the Dublin Health Authority that children resident in Pelletstown were to be used as research subjects in a vaccine trial. It would appear that Dr Coffey may have been solely responsible for providing Professor Meenan and Dr Hillery with access to Pelletstown.
Nonsense Journalism
Even after the commission’s report was published, biased reporting continued with alacrity. The Irish Examiner published an article on 14 January 2021 where the claimed ‘there were at least 13 vaccine trials carried out on more than 43,000 children, according to the Mother and Baby Homes Commission of Investigation.’ The entire article is littered with phrases cherry-picked from the report, conflating information from different areas of the report with as many negative facts as the author can find. I cannot find the total number 43,000 mentioned anywhere, and I doubt if the author summed up all the numbers, as the final report is a compilation of a series of individual reports. The report mentions a figure of 47,000 children who took part in a vaccine trial in Britain in 1964/65, and I surmise that the author mistakenly took this paragraph to be about Ireland and, even then, manage to get the figure wrong.
The author fails to mention that the early vaccination trials of the 1930s were done with the authorities’ support due to ‘one of the worst diphtheria epidemics ever recorded in Europe’. Instead, he continues to weave a tangled web, carefully selecting his facts, taken out of context, and conflating comments about the University College, Dublin studies of the 1960s/70s with earlier studies.
The journalist also fails to mention the commission’s conclusions to each trial: ‘there is no evidence of injury to the children involved as a result of the vaccines.’
Many academics were made to look foolish because the final report of the commission of investigation into mother and baby homes rubbished many of the allegations they presented as historical fact. Consequently, and to save face, 25 academics have produced an alternative mother and baby homes report or at least and alternative or reinterpreted executive summary.
However, the re-interpretation relies on feminism and the misleading application of today’s morals and standards — which did not exist in the past — but should have existed and had been applied by society and the government. It is a crime against history and the intellectual tradition.
Here are the six factors which the academics say indicates the State is to blame for mother and baby homes, with my observations. Note, blame is deliberately put on the state to force it to pay compensation.
1: The State funded all institutions in some way;
No news there. Perhaps the state should not have cared about the plight of unmarried mothers and their children and consequently not have funded care institutions. The commission of investigation also stated that the conditions were worse in secular institutions like county Homes but only the religious run homes have been singled out
2: The State regulated mother and baby homes through local government, inspection, funding, criminal, human rights, constitutional and administrative law. They add that where religious authorities objected to more intensive regulation and reform, State agencies preferred to negotiate rather than enforce regulatory arrangements;
That was not always the case. The state acted when appropriate and with the force of the laws in place at that time.
3: The State was aware of dangerous and degrading living conditions in many institutions, but did not use its statutory powers of prosecution and did not sanction institutions by depriving them of funding,
The living conditions of the poor in Ireland and elsewhere were far worse than found in any mother and baby home. Unmarried mothers under the British workhouse system in place before 1922 were treated far worse. Only Tuam and Kilrush, former workhouses were singled out by the commission of investigation as being below the standards of other buildings. However, its commentary was biased through an invalid comparison with the standards of today. Anachronistic issues like curtains between the beds in dormitories and a lack of central heating were cited as evidence of poor living conditions.
4: Irish law punished family foundation outside of marriage and showed no concern for reproductive justice;
‘Reproductive justice’ is a term which was never heard in the past as the concept is brand new. Applying such terms and concepts by arguing that they should have applied — even though they did not exist at that time — is not revisionism it is just tomfoolery.
5: The law criminalised aspects of access to contraception up to 1933 and almost all abortion up to 2019, making it almost impossible to avoid unwanted pregnancy;
Unwanted pregnancy can be easily avoided through abstinence. Besides in other countries where contraception was available continued to produce large quantities of unwanted children.
6: Irish law still inhibits efforts to seek accountability for abuses in the institutions by restricting affected people’s access to records of institutionalisation and family; their own records and those of close family members.
Pregnant women entered the homes on the basis that their anonymity would be guaranteed. Many of these mothers do not want to see their children and are primarily responsible for the halting their children from tracing them or contacting them.
The Post-Truth Era hit Ireland earlier than most other nations. Women’s studies at the universities provided a fertile breeding ground for false histories. In no time, the notion of the ‘misogynistic nation’ took hold and grew into a full-blown conspiracy theory. One article in particular from NUI, Galway published in 2016, provides us with the exemplar of the post-truth affliction within Irish academia as it contains nearly all the spoofs which masquerade as genuine Irish history. Troublingly, these spoofs appear to be taught to students at university, thus ensuring that new generations of history teachers will pass on such spoof, thus providing more evidence that the universities claim to be able to teach critical thinking skills continues to be rendered bogus.
Most Irish universities are busting their gut to rise in the university world rankings but try as they might, NUI, Galway’s ranking has plummeted again this year. It would plummet further down the order if the veracity of its output was included in the ranking’s assessment process. However, NUI, Galway is not the only university to be affected by post-truth menace and for students affected by poor standards, should be entitled to a return of their fees.
In the fifth chapter of the book the writings and claims of various academics are compared to the historical evidence. Here is an extract from that particular NUI, Galway article. Judge for yourself if the pursuit of objective truth is currently beyond the capability of most Irish academics.
Abuse – The Catholic cure for Poverty
I could present no more exceptional exemplar of all the maladies that infringe upon quality history writing than within the one article entitled, ‘The Catholic cure for Poverty’ written by Dr Sarah-Anne Buckley working as a history lecturer at Galway University[1]. A classic of the genre, where a highly partisan interpretation of historical events is used to promote a current agenda. To her credit, Buckley manages to wrap several agendas into one invective piece, killing many birds with as many stones to hand. The article is a left-wing supremacist attack on what she sees as the right-wing establishment; her artillery cannons are loaded with ‘straw man’ shrapnel, aiming the barrage at the Catholics, the Irish political classes and the Irish people. Named after the huffing and puffing, big bad wolf in the Three Little Pigs story, a straw man attack is where the views, actions and arguments of the opposing side are misrepresented, and these misrepresentations are then attacked. It is a recognised informal logical fallacy that aims to discredit and humiliate the opposition using tactics ranging from the exaggeration of small facts to complete fabrication of falsehoods; it is regarded as dishonesty, which serves to undermine rational debate.
That is a definition, and I am not accusing Buckley dishonesty, she is not the first author to fail to put the mother and baby homes story in its correct historical context and is merely repeating the fallacies of other writers without checking their veracity. While her agenda clearly shows elements of Marxist socialist, feminist and anti-Catholic tendencies, she lets the sisterhood down by failing to credit the various women’s movements for their input and considerable influence on the moral and social hygiene movements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Failure to recognise women’s achievements is an all-too-common feature of extreme feminism, which prefers to resort to false historical self-victimisation to both support their raison d’etre and promote self-notoriety. All built on a ton and a half of falsehoods. In this section, I will get through some of the claims made in Buckley’s article and I will do the job of a historian and place these claimed events and arguments in their historical context. I am sure that I will be attacked, and stand accused of promoting my own agenda, but at least I fully inform my readers of all the issues surrounding these historical events, even if they oppose whatever agenda I may stand accused of promoting. Readers of history are entitled to be permitted to formulate an informed opinion rather than have it manipulated through cherry-picking small bits of information, filtered through present-day understandings and misunderstandings. Accordingly, I have gone back to the original documents, which historians refer to as primary sources, have included the relevant extracts below so that my readers can judge for themselves whether or not the history is based thereupon has been subjected to impartial interpretation.
As one author builds the mistakes of another, adding embellishment on top embellishment without dissent, myths grow into those of epic proportions that incrementally creep further away from the grain of truth towards having no basis in reality, thus becoming complete conjectures.
Carrigan Report Myths
One of the common myths that have emerged in recent years goes under the title ‘the suppression of the Carrigan Report’. In reality, the Carrigan report’s findings were not suppressed and incorporated into law through the Public Dance Halls Act 1935 and the Criminal Law (Amendment) Bill, which raised the age of consent and banned contraception. If Dr Buckley read the report, it states that it was never intended to be made public. The myth arises because of a memo sent to the cabinet on October 27th, 1932 from the Minister of Justice, James Geoghegan TD, which was severely critical of the report and insisting that it was too one-sided. He was right, the report was one-sided, even for the mentality of the 1920s, blaming motorcars, cinema and dance halls for the rise in illegitimate births. Highly selective extracts from the report have over recent decades, provided the propagandists with fertile soil from which to propagate all sorts of fallacies. Even where the report provides no soil, the fallacies still manage to grow but in keeping with the laws of nature, can only grow with the application of more manure.
Buckley writes, ‘the Carrigan Report revealed abuse was rampant in Irish institutions.’[2] Nowhere in the Carrigan Report does it say any such thing. It is a blatant falsehood or a mistake of monumental proportions due to her qualifications in academic history. We all can make mistakes and a single elementary failure to look up a document, which she herself has hyperlinked in her article, might be forgivable but for the plethora of other historical falsehoods and misinformation peppered throughout her invective article. [3] Published several years ago in May 2016, the article has remained uncorrected since then, and no erratum has been prefaced to the online article to date. It reveals that Dr Buckley remains unaware of the mistakes and that the article has not been subject to competent peer review until now.
Dr Buckley mistakenly claims that the Carrigan committee’s report dates from 1935, in reality, it delivered its findings on August 20th, 1931, and its report was circulated to members of the Cabinet on December 2nd, 1931. The report offers an essential insight into the mentality and the concerns of the élite and middle classes regarding the specific problem of protecting girls and women in 1920s, not just in Ireland but also worldwide as evinced through this statement contained within the report.
The Secretariat of the League of Nations, at the instance of the Department of External Affairs, supplied us with official publications and a summary of the legislation in different countries on subjects pertinent to our investigation. The Secretariat also prepared for us a special Memorandum, drawn up by one of its members, Dr Max Habicht, comparing the provisions of Stead’s Act [the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1885][4] with existing international conventions having for their purpose the protection of women and children.[5]
Note: the primary purpose for establishing the Carrigan Commission was ‘the protection of women and children’. Note also, a fundamental of clurichaun syndrome requires that Ireland be treated in isolation from all other countries, thereby falsely promoting the notion that Irish find solutions to Irish problems without reference to the international context. Moreover, when comparisons are made, they tend to be with Britain rather than another country similar to Ireland, which faced similar social problems. In the period under study, Britain was the richest country in the world and Ireland one of the poorest with just over half the GDP per capita of Britain. In light of such, hardly any comparison to Britain concerning efforts in mitigation of poverty is valid. Research validity requires academics to be able to work outside the Anglophone, and that seems to be well beyond the capability of most social historians and sociologists working Irish academia. Note again, however, in the above extract; the committee was concerned to look at what is now called best practice in other countries for the protection of women and children. However, Buckley states that ‘the Carrigan committee was tasked with investigating the ‘moral state’ of the country.’[6] The Carrigan report again, begs to differ.
Under the terms of our Reference we had to consider the secular aspect of social morality which it is the concern of the State to conserve and safeguard for the protection and well-being of its citizens. We looked upon it as our duty in the first place to collect sufficient information from such authentic sources as would enable us to determine whether the standard of social morality is at present exposed to evils, which the existing laws of the Saorstát [Free State], for the suppression and prevention of public vice, are inadequate to check and should they be in our opinion inadequate, to proceed, in the next place, to consider how best they can be made effectual and to recommend [changes to the law] [7]
Interpreting ‘social morality’ as the ‘morality of the country’ is an easy mistake to make, but anyone who reads the report will see that it was primarily concerned with the protection of women and girls from sexual predators, to analyse the dangers faced and recommend action. The report was not in the modern sense moralising nor accusing women of immoral behaviour. If anything, the report authors can be accused of it is philogyny (opposite of misogyny) and misandry (prejudice against men). Only one small section of the report mentions the need to protect boys who were as we know today just as much if not more in danger than girls from sexual predators.
Buckley’s claim that ‘the Carrigan Report revealed abuse was rampant in Irish institutions’ is not only not supported by any statement in the report but is directly contradicted. The report is full of praise for intuitions like industrial schools and even calls for the establishment of penal borstal intuitions, which were already imposed on boys, to be extended to girls.
For girl offenders between 16 and 21 years of age we recommend the adoption of the proposals favoured by the majority of the witnesses, who were examined by us on the subject. They appeared to us sound and practical and can be given legal effect without difficulty by the application, with suitable adaptations, of Part 1. (Reformation of Young Offenders) of the Prevention of Crime Act, 1908, under which the Borstal system was established, which on the whole has proved satisfactory for dealing with male offenders between these ages.
At present, in the numerous cases of girl offenders, which would be most judiciously disposed of by sentences of detention under the Borstal system, if it were available… [8]
As for the ‘Catholic cure for poverty,’ the cure is striking secular in the Carrigan Report:
In explanation of the numerous cases of outrages upon young females, the Commissioner pointed to the fact to which attention was directed by other witnesses, that in this country the children of the poorer classes are less protected than in Great Britain. In Dublin the necessity in the case of many families living in tenements, for the parents, both father and mother, to leave the children to look after themselves in the day time while they themselves went out to earn their livelihood, was a constant source of danger. In rural districts girls of 14 years are sent out to service, which deprives them of the protection they had with their parents.[9]
The report expressly states that children are left on their own or forced to work as servants, depriving them of parental protection due to poverty. The mother and baby homes commission confirmed that most of the women in the homes were previously employed as domestic servants. The landlord classes (both Irish and Anglo Irish) have been abusing young girls and boys for centuries, but it seems to have escaped the attention of Buckley et al. Also escaping attention is the role which women, and in particular women doctors played in analysing the problem of unmarried mothers and how to protect them and children from venereal disease. The Carrigan Commission was keen to seek out the opinion of knowledgeable women and report it accordingly.
The period of 16 to 19 years of age is regarded as the dangerous age for girls, being the period when they are most susceptible emotionally and least capable of self-control. In a pamphlet issued by the [British ] National social Purity Crusade, of which the author is Miss Helen Wilson, a prominent member of the Association for Moral and social Hygiene and an advocate for raising the age of protection for girls in England to 18 years, at least, figures are given showing that in the examined cases of 401 women, who were professional prostitutes, 231 had first lapsed between 16 and 19 years of age and of 317 similar cases 194 had become prostitutes between these years. The Poor Law Commission of 1927 reported (clause 259) that mothers of firstborn illegitimate children, who seek relief in this country, are commonly between 17 and 21 years of age and it recommended that the age of consent should be raised to at least 18, if not 19 years.
We concur and would add that the necessity for the better protection of girls has become more acute since the Report of the Poor Law Commission was published. We accordingly recommend that it shall be an offence to have carnal knowledge of a girl under 18 years of age.[10]
Language and the connotations associated with certain words has changed over the decades, and if such a passage were written in the same language as today, it would be sternly rebuked, and the authors would have probably gotten George Hooked. The snowflake generation is particularly sensitive to certain words’ connotations as they have grown up in an environment of political correctness and sometimes, to borrow a tired old expression, political correctness gone mad. However, snowflaky connotations are anachronisms and can have no place in history, but this ignorance has many harmful consequences. A case in point was that of the elderly Irish radio presenter, George Hook, who, perhaps ham-fistedly but with avuncular intent, proffered advice to women about not putting themselves in danger of sexual attack. He was hysterically accused of victim-blaming and ended up being hounded out of his job. Many of us, men included, have developed strategies to avoid situations, potentially putting us in danger. There are certain streets, specific venues that I would not visit alone or even venture near, late at night. I would also advise my daughters and wife on avoiding putting themselves in danger and any stranger I think might be in danger. Not only that, I would do the same for my son and my male friends too, but I will also put their safety before the hypersensitivities of the snowflakes and make no apologies for doing so.
Interpreting historical documents like the Carrigan Report is where the role of the historian assumes its primary importance, translating such documents into today’s parlance so that they can be easily understood by the people of the present, including the snowflakes. The commission was not casting a slur on girls of 16 to 19 years of age it is an observation written in the archaic language of the 1920s where the connotations on such words as illegitimate, ignorant, morality, purity did not carry the attached extra emotional meanings of today. The next extract is illustrative of that when it refers to ‘ignorant girls’. Ignorance would be replaced with the phrase innocent and naïve in similar reports of today, and that was what was meant, not thick or stupid.
Reason : The evidence satisfied us that the uncontrolled freedom the promiscuous entertainments in which town and country girls are now in the habit of participating, such as Dance Halls, Picture Houses and ‘joy’ drives in motor vehicles, are designedly resorted to ‘and availed of by male prowlers’ as they were described, to bring ignorant ‘girls to ruin’; and to render them easier prey, intoxicants, as well as drugged drinks, not infrequently are given to them.[11]
Without knowledge of the past, any person attempting to read through historical documents can easily make mistakes by doing what comes naturally, filtering information through the prism of current understandings.
The contributors to the Carrigan Report and others in similar reports during the Free State period did not see poverty as a moral failing as Dr Buckley implies, nor were they advocating a Catholic cure for poverty. Such an allegation is untrue especially because the Anglican Church also stands accused of ‘slaughtering’ poor babies. Accordingly, would Buckley’s article not be better retitled, the Christian cure for poverty?
