Not really a fence sitter this one I suspect
Must admit initially I was favouring the travelers on the premise I have always believed that how well a country treats it's gypsies gives you a good indication of how civilised it is.
But that was before Vanessa Redgrave stepped in to offer her support to the incumbent travelers. (I think they wanted Joanna Lumley but she was too busy with the Gurkha's.)
Perhaps if Vanessa offers them a pitch on Hampstead Heath outside her house I'll change my mind and get back on her side.

I think you should ask yourself , 'How well do the gypsies treat this country and how civilised are they...?'
We don't owe them anything.
Have you ever visited one of their sites...?

they call themselves travellers - so travel yourselves off the land where you have built illegally.

I like Vanessa Redgrave and I hate and despise all the knee-jerk anti-gypos... but I've had a good read and listen about this and I'm on the side of the authorities on this one, the travellers have calculatedly taken the piss imho, thought they could either get away with it or milk public opinion, they should be subject to the same laws as the rest of us.

I agree, I don't like knee-jerk reactions either but I suspect a lot of people (myself included) have had almost entirely negative experiences when having to deal with gypos/travellers/itinerant Irish call them what you will.
A common tactic is to buy a piece of land, move on, ignore planning permission, then use legal aid to fight their case for ten years while the local community suffers abuse, pollution and general blight.
Anyone on here work for the tax authorities? If so, do you guys ever investigate how they make their money, what tax and NI they pay? They're not shy of using our hospitals when churning out another (identical-looking ;D) nipper!

They broke the law and they knew that they did. Would we recieve the same sympathy if we did something similar.
It can't be one rule for gypsy's one rule for the rest of us

They have little respect for the laws and morality of the country where they live, if you have ever lived near a site it is a terrible experience.
Any other person who blatantly broke planning laws would be dealt with in the same manner.
The law must be applied the same to anyone no matter who they are.

Is the site built illegally on green belt land ? Yes.
The law applies to all of us.

I would love to see Vanessa Redgrave spend a month of her life living with her new found friends.
I expect the experience wouldn't last more than 48 hours.

They call themselves travellers, and they live in caravans so why do they have a problem moving on? If they want permanent buy a house .....oh and a word of advice for any pikeys on here ....lose the weird accent it makes you stick out a mile !!

What do they give back to the country apart from a load of shit and scrap caravans! The cheating fuckers aren't travellers. If so, we wouldn't be having this chat. What about their kids education? Yet again, theft! They haven't paid a penny towards the running of that school. Take your caravans, your inbred brethren and your porcelain dogs and travel of the nearest cliff! Scum! That is all! Having said all that, I'm not sure I have an opinion!

I was watching the news earlier and one of them had spray painted 'Stop the RACEIST Eviction'... Can't help but feel that the eviction would have very little bearing on their education

Shove the lot of the filthy cunts in their site, barricade it then release poison gas.
Then set it on fire, before detonating it.
Twice.

The live footage this week should provide some of the best entertainment seen on British TV FOR A VERY LONG TIME.
I do hope that they also provide us with some quality research into how many have previous convictions , how many actually work ,how many pay tax , how many claim benefits , how they manage to afford to buy expensive 4 x4 vehicles , how many are from Ireland , how many are illiterate , how many knew the building rules , how many chose to ignore the rules , and last but not least how many couln't give a shit...!

Forgot to say ...I do like watching " my big fat pikey wedding " one of the best things that's been on the box ever !! But let's face it pikey weddings must cost an absolute fortune , still I suppose when you don't pay tax or 'owt you get to save loads !!

Just watching BBC coverage and the irony of the "legal observers" ready to film any illegal action by the bailiffs. Pity they wonner there to film previous illegal activities by the travellers over the last decade.
