Angry Gypo's, Tinkers, Travellers or whatever you want to call them

Just coming into work over the last few days and theres been a steady build up of *Gypo's* in caravans, flat back vans and box vans turning up on a small business park near me.

The business park consists mostly of small office units, each with its own mini car park surrounded by grass and a few nicely situated clumps of trees. You all know the type i'm on about. Anyway, these *b@stards* have just turned up and parked their ugly feckin heaps of sh1te on the grass and use the car park for their vans etc.

So this morning i'm driving past and i see and old two seater sofa, two dog kennels, a role of carpet, a few buckets (probably full of sh1te and p155) and a whole host of burst bin sacks, bottles etc strewn across the grass. I mean WTF how can these boils on the @rse of humanity, park in what is essentially a companies business and disrupt them in this way FFS it's like parking in someones back garden. Where's the fookin Police, why haven't they moved these ******* on or something better . Okay so i know they park on wasteland or brown field sites and leave a minging mess everywhere but this is just a downright p155 take.

Why hasn't anything been done I really feel for the people who have to go into work and leave their cars either next to the caravans or gangs of marauding ugly scruffy little robbing *******. Surely this is a private car park and Police should be able to move them on Instantaneously, i'm so nobbed off with these tw@ts, when they turn up the local crime figures soar and theres always a spate of car thefts and break ins reported in the local rag. So how much of my rates now will go to clean up their sh1te and how much will it cost to get eviction notices and Police time to get shut of them only to find they've moved up the road 100 yards. I think the Police should be able to confiscate a van or wagon or summit and sell it to fund the clean up / eviction cost

I think i'll take some pictures tonight and just show you how much of a scum they are. Society can no longer hold a place for these leeches, laws should be past to eradicate them from modern society !

Its is a disgrace. They complain about the fact people don't want them near their homes, and is it any wonder with their light fingers and propensity to spread refuse around everything they touch!

Oh don't start me off on this one !

If you want to live in this country, then you should be responsible for yourselves. Contribute to the cost of running the country etc. Gypos, pikies, "asylum seekers", those 'on the social', etc etc.

But do they ? No. You and I pay inflated taxes instead.

In this instance, Gypos. They don't contribute anything, yet continually suck at this countries resources.
I bet if they turn up at a hospital asking for treatment 'cos they've eaten a dodgy hedgehog, they'd get it too ! Totally free.

Sigh.

FPMSL @ "boils on the @rse of humanity"

Travellers have rights - probably more rights than tax paying, law abiding folk like ourselves. Whats more - they damn well know it

Get the home secretary down and show him the mess.... oh yeah, he won't see it.... a home secretary thats blind, oh the irony! <cackle>

It will take about a week for the local council to move them on. I'm not sure what the process is called - probably The Pikey Bill 1984 - but they have to apply through the courts or it may have to be the landowner in this instance.

Just lock everything up and leave nothing lying around.

We had some pikeys just behind our house only a couple of days ago! The police did move them on about 6 days after they arrived.

The fecking gypos left a right mess! When they were there it was almost like being a prisoner in our own house! We couldn't leave the house unattended what so ever!

Essentially correct. Since they are parked on private land then the owner has to apply to the court for an injunction to move them on. Generally it will be granted fairly quickly, and generally the travellers will move on within 24 hours of it being served. Generally.

Buzzer, I know where you mean, there's loads of 'em in the area ! There were some over the new M62 junction last week, bloody ripped out a lamp-post, last year they installed their own standpipe to the mains !! They'll set up camp just about anywhere - roundabouts, grass verges, you name it.

Not sure about getting the air force to remove them, as I live nearby, and I'm worried about friendly-fire. Oh hang on, no yanks involved so I should be OK.

Group buy on Molotovs anyone ?

Tony

Yes mate i know where you mean. I was told by a local who lives on the estate opposite that the lampost was removed to gain power from the supply from the lamp WTF

Mica Blue

I hadn't read that thread at all up until now. Jeez that sounded a mare

I have to agree with a few peeps on the other thread and Yoza on this thread that i think the only "good" ones are ones on fixed purpose made sites as they know they have to live there and be good or else

When these @rsholes came last year they bombarded the local doctors surgery with all sorts of complaints, probably Syph, pox, fungal infections etc etc. I believe the surgery had to treat them Whilst there they brought all their family to watch the tv in the waiting room and they completley ransacked the toilets. sh1te all over the floor etc etc. I remember the poor 18 year old receptionist saying she had to help clear it up

It really does make my blood boil

No, you're wrong there. By the time they get kicked out of every other county and try to come back to our corner of the country, the M25 will be totally gridlocked and they won't be able to get back in.

Cant somebody employ a "Security Company" with big Alsations to politely keep an eye on them 24/7. I'm sure those chaps would be able to move them along after a little encouragement.

Problem is they'll just keep moving down the road

I wonder if each county could produce a Hedgehog Farm, that way they can tend to their flock and be self sufficent

The most worrying I think is their kids fighting with the local kids, I mean a 12 year old gypo might easily take out 16 year old local.
Im not saying their kids go around causing trouble and fighting, but they do look hard and rough

Didn't hear many complaints when someone torched one of their caravans a few months ago. Despite the apparent "public outrage" at the incident - I can't remember a single person condemning it...

...and round of applause was the order of the day...

I must rephrase this quote

'By enlarge they are a filthy bunch of people. It's just the large 99% of them that give them a bad name'
