The end is nigh for Dale Farm travellers

[Ian_W]

The police are, for once, doing a great job

Ian - I beg to differ, they provoked the violence seen today

 

How? By trying to uphold the law of the land and trying to defend themselves against missiles and steel poles?

[Eastside Urchin]

Rhodes,bollox

[Rhodes]

How?

By going in through a gap in the back fence to the site about 7.00 this morning, that's what provoked the violence

Did you expect them to ring the front door bell?

Travellers building dodgy fences? Surely not?

[Ian_W]

I have noticed that we have not had any vans being driven round here this week, with the occupants ringing bells!

Thank goodness bubonic plague has almost been wiped out.

Ian – No but, like I said, it provoked the serious disorder seen yesterday at Dale Farm and the heavy handed Police action has been likened to ‘soldiers going into battle’. The helpless Travellers were forced to hurriedly pack their meagre possessions into vans as Officers violently smashed their way through the rear of the site at 7.00am screaming code words ‘as if it was Afghanistan’.

You talk tripe sometimes.

 

They have had 10 years to pack up their possessions!

 

So are you saying that soldiers are violent?

 

The police knew that the criminals at Dale Farm had missiles stored and ready as well as weapons - what choice did the police have?

[Rhodes]

RalphC – Would you like it if you were constantly treated like a leper and didn’t have a permanant place to call home, one of the Travellers who needed hospital treatment following the Police action was cancer sufferer Cornelius Sheridan whose defibulator lost power when the electricity to the site was cut.

And she had power brought to her, so she was not affected.

 

I think you will find that many do have homes.

 

They have all been offered homes by Basildon Borough Council, but have declined them.

 

Why? Because they are travellers. Except they do not travel, which is strange.

[Eastside Urchin]

Come on Rhodes,don't be a little plonker

[missunderstood]

There's no way that the electricity would have been turned off without the prior knowledge of the police, or the travellers, Mr Sheridan should have gone, or been advised to leave before the power was quote rightly cut off. It seems to me that they are looking for a martyr, and they are willing to sacrifice a life to suit their own criminal ends.

[Rhodes]

I have it on good authority that a specialist Traveller and Gypsy bailiff company, namely Constant & Co, have been handed the lucrative contract to clear the site and are notorious for their physical disregard and abuse of Travellers including women and children. During previous evictions homes have been unceremoniously bulldozed and, wait for it, a caravan was lifted by a bulldozer with a family still sat inside.

[Eastside Urchin]

Good because those thrieving pikeys play by the same rules when on the thieve up.get them to fck off back to Ireland,scum not wanted over here

[RalphC]

 

Rhodes - A quick question.....

 

Why do you feel that these travellers can continue to break the law and get away with it, whilst you, I, missunderstood, Eastside Urchin, Ian_W, SJ2112 etc. cannot?

[Loose]

I heard that once upon a time a traveller actually paid National Insurance but this also turned out to be just another Made Up Fact....

Why try and spread false rumours of them paying their debts???

 

You should be ashamed!

[Rhodes]

Loosely - This may interest you as your favourite organisation, Amnesty International UK, have stated that the UN Intervention Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD) have spoken out about the "immature and unwise eviction of Dale Farm residents" and expressed its "deep regret" at the eviction which has "become an international issue" and "put the UK to shame". Amnesty International campaigns Director Tim Hancock said "Central and Local Authorities have a duty to comply with International human rights law and standards", and the UN’s Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights, Thomas Hammarberg, has reported serious human rights violations with 86 families and some 100 children being forcibly removed from the site.
