You cant say things like that. We must say nothing and hope that we change.

"Twenty grand or the place is ours", the sense of entitlement is strong with this one. I feel for the dogs, what a life that must be.

Does there have to be one of these comments in every thread by law or something?

20k or a 300k repair bill. How many companies/households actually pay up in advance that we never hear about

Not yet. But give it time.

100-strong gang to destroy the building when demands were not met,
A convoy of more than 25 vehicles - including 17 caravans - entered Thwaites Brewery in Blackburn

Lots of people to send to jail and/or deport - and many vehicles to impound and sell off.

Stopped at a topaz garage yesterday afternoon (1330) for some fuel, and seen a guy with (without profiling) a very distinctive kind of haircut (shaved tight, that blends into a full head of hair) take a pee right at the garage forecourt, then jump into an English reg, Isuzu pick up type jeep.

The forecourt.

Obviously couldn't hold it the 40 secs or so it would have taken to walk into the garage and use their more than adequate toilet facilities.

In fairness I've seens plenty of buffers do similar only metres from the door of a pub they've been drinking in.

"On May 27, Thwaites were allowed into the premises - with police assistance - to remove a number of valuable items, including artwork and memorabilia worth £2 million.
A number of males were seen to trespass the office building in a horsebox and a beer dray, at around 4:30pm."

Utterly astonishing that this kind of anarchy can be allowed in a civilised country. I wonder if a gang of common-or-garden criminals were involved would they be allowed free rein to destroy a business premises while the police had to escort employees in to rescue valuables?

So the Travellers were holding out for their £20,000 while evidently not realizing that the building contained artwork worth £2,000,000.

Not exactly the brightest bulbs...

They tend to be magpie-like, and go for bright 'n shiny rather than valuable. If the artwork was framed in chrome, they'd have had it the moment they got in.

What a very stupid post.

Are people not to mention when a gang of 100 of these pure scum cause £300,000 worth of damage because they did not get paid the £20'000 they demanded?

Thanks to Peter Cassy these threads appear to be left open now.

Another stupid comment we always seem to get is don't tar a whole group with the one brush.
Well, this was a gang of 100 travellers and only travellers that carried this appaling act out.
Is it fair to say every single traveller that took part is this is pure oxygen thieving scum? I think it is.

What about the people that work there what about their jobs Fcuk these people they are a scourge.

Its never ceases to shock me what these inbreds are allowed away with.
I was never one for gun ownership but im now fully for gun ownership in cases like this.Its tresspass and extortion plain and simple,people should be allowed protect and defend something they have worked hard all their life for.
Id gladly protect myself ,family and property with a weapon given these circumstances.

Will the British authorities deal with them harshly, or are they afraid of them the same as ours?

They're terrified of offending them. In a society that believed in itself, the riot squad would have been in there an hour after the travellers and went to war on them. Instead, the British police escorted the employees in to recover what hadn't been stolen or destroyed, and then went off again like they were the trespassers.

I read in another report of this case that the cultural gentlefolk deliberately **** in the brewing equipment. Like monkeys flinging **** at the zoo.

They seem to be talking about it at least, unlike our own.

I met a traveller ...
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

its total no brainer in this day and age, group of 100 allowed to tear and terrorize people. Is it judges that crap thieir pants once they see one ? is it police garda that fear for the life of their own that every time news are hit you see some poor sap that worked his all life getting into trouble with law and never ending issues, as opposed to these creatures that dont see inside the cell more then few hours to be back on the streets, with convictions that could fill up the books, always getting free pass on most charges that regular person wouldn't see end or daylight if they did something close to it.

I saw a young man doing that on a green in college court on the way home. Might be something contagious.

And he didn't even charge the garage for the forecourt cleaning service...what a nice lad.

Travellers I'm sure in times past had to be hustlers, turn a fiver from nothing and a fiver into a tenner. Turn yer hand to anything that'd make a few quid to get by

In most towns up and down the country it was travelers that sold fireworks around Halloween, just an example of a hustle.

We handed them the great social welfare scam, what were we expecting?
