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

    what's also disgusting is they urinated and defecated all over the place.
    or is that part of their much-vaunted culture also?

    Ozymandias

    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.

    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.

    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?

    First they came for the socialists...

    I know of a group that contributed greatly to a metal recycling initiative.
    They really tore into it.

    I can only assume it's about marking territory or some such?

    Or maybe bladder problems?

    Dunno.
