    I dunno about that, I know it's only anecdotal, but I know travellers and settled travellers who's parents/grandparents grew up together and some are related, and it's night and day of a difference, also it was proven that travellers are genetically identical to regular Irish, which is why their ethnic minority status is one of the dumbest things ever put forward by this state.

    Travellers want the best of both worlds, They want their minority status with their "culture" protected. They also want the full benefits of society with NO responsibility or consequences. You cant be 2% of the population and be occupying 15% of the prison population. Do you see the discrepancy?

    Of course I do, I just don't think it's genetic, it a cultural lack of respect for society and a sense of entitlement from an early age.

    The government needs to organise a Clean up.
    Employ 500 heavily armed men to go around cleaning up this filth,
    they are no good to society anywhere, they wreak havoc everywhere, leave their shyte behind and generally cause a nuisance.

    You don't think that's a small bit over the top, no?

    Have you personally had a bad experience with traveller's or is it just that you think violence is the answer to everything?

    And why do all these 500 heavily armed people have to be men?

    No it's no over the top, when you see the animals you'd need to deal with.
    Had a few bad experiences yes,
    Travellers themselves use violence to solve their internal issues, I say fight fire with fire.
    They don't have to be men, but they do need to be eqquiped to deal with violent things.

    So one tinker got an education.
    You'll have to do better than that I'm afraid.

    And "education" is pushing it, her "Phd" seems total made up Mickey Mouse bollocks.
    Shyte that the system just clapped along with to be politically correct.
    My guess is she can barely add, I would love to know her results in real subjects like Maths or Science - my guess is she never did any science and barely scraped a pass in foundation maths and got in to college on some bs govt scheme.

    There is a reason why travellers are under represented at third level, that is because they dont put the work in at the early stages. This work has to be supported and fostered in an environment of education in the home. This is near impossible when 80% of Traveller males have a criminal record by the age of 22. I have been in an educational environment with Travellers. They do not study at the same rate, do homework, they do not have regular attendance or have a clear goal of where they want to go. They drop once they work out they dont fit in. You cant suddenly decide at 30, just like that I am going back to education when you havent put in the work at fundamental stages, like reading to a child before bedtime.

    I am advocating sensible spending and "Value For Money" for the tax payer. Spending money on traveller education is akin to trying to teach a horse to bark. Have you even seen the amount of money invested in Traveller education. Have you seen the amount of abuse teachers get from traveller students and pair that with course completion rates.

    Sensible post, but I'm sure the "progressives" will just scream "RACIST" at you ....





    yep ... carry on

    That's a pretty low blow in fairness.
    Not all degrees/doctorates have to be in maths or science.

    If there were more like her instead of the likes of Joe Joyce and Martin O'Donnell, there would be an awful lot less problems within the travelling community.

    Pavee point need to be holding her up as a roll model to young travellers instead of constantly complaining when us 'buffers' are sick of their cultural practices.

    Some very nasty personal remarks being made altogether, I thought it was bad enough with the derogatory generalization earlier but I can only assume they are ignorant people looking for a reaction.

    Traditionally the bare knuckle fighting has been used to settle disputes and stop further violence between the families and clans involved. Hopefully today's events have paved the way for peace.

    That's highly offensive. Are you insinuating that traveller familiars are inherently violent?

    The was an option for third year but that was curtailed for getting married and setting up the caravan.

    Third year: Taxation limitation : on the ferry, Advanced health care NHS, Social studies project 12 weeks :State incarceration, Social studies 3 Marriage, Social studies 4 Funeral, Media management : Racism. Fashion studies : Pennies. Business Studies 2 : Carpets and soft furnishing.

    It works far more often than it doesn't.

    The original conflict between the patriarchs was from what I can gather a hastily arranged fight to see who could claim to be the best fighting man of the Irish travellers. There was no other reason for the fight.

    The two men were well aware of each others reputations and when they met at a function in a hotel a fight was arranged. This was well before the age of mobile phones and social media.

    Joe Juniors da bate Martin’s da several decades ago to claim the title ‘king of all men’.
    Today’s fight was the continuation of that.

    Despite today’s amicable conclusion They’ll be calling each other out again next week.
