    I'm not one for listening to hear say..buy i was told recently that several motor tax offices were "advised" to tax vans for travellers, even with the clampdown on the commercial/trade usage rules that have been implemented...:confused:

    Ah don't be going upsetting the poor ethnic minorities;)

    I'd guess it's one of the few taxes they do actually pay.

    Thankfully they are not yet an ethnic minority in Ireland. Why they should be is beyond me as they are ethnically the same as the vast majority of people on this island yet make very different lifestyle choices to the rest of us.

    The law does not apply to travellers. And as the clips shows the gardai dont seem to bothered in enforcing it.....no action in this case.So why would they worry about motor tax?Im getting to the stage of thinking they are probably right!!

    Slightly OT, but ethnic minority = opportunity for ethnic cleansing?

    This thread isn't going anywhere good. Thread closed.

    Vetstu, I'm not sure what specific element of the Charter you broke, but your post is completely unacceptable.
