    They are a drain on society.

    They love the gossip and just love seeing others in misery.

    If anyone ever had the unfortunate experience of meeting one in their home uninvited...,.. you need to take them out.....

    They have no sympathy and to be honest they are a very dangerous breed.

    A+E rooms are inherently chaotic places and travellers are agents of chaos, apart from the fact they go to A+E for everything and anything, their entire extended family show up en masse and block up the place

    As an interesting point about travellers making up noticible portions of A&E on any given day are the number of retired UK pensioners who have moved here in the last few years. One medical person I was talking too was saying that up to a third of regular admissions are of older UK nationals. And we wonder why the health system is on its knees?

    I've yet to see one British pensioner, I'd take three British pensioners today if they took one of our travellers

    This is gas. I thought I was just lucky/unlucky in that every time I've been to an A&E, it was mobbed with travellers. Da fuq is that about.

    Ok we'll send the pensioners back, and take back all the Irish people using the NHS, and see how we fare then, lol

    Exaggerate much there? Who said anything about sending anybody back or otherwise btw? It's an observation of something happening at least in some areas here. Is it related to the increase in Irish passports being sought in the UK at the foot of brexit, free medical care here now for the over 70s or is it the fact that elderly people here recieve additional welfare benefits / value for money compared to the UK?

    They see it as an outing, its sport of sorts

    Even aunty Julia is in for a sore bunion, the relatives are going around with big worried faces as if 9-11 has happened in tuam.

    Pension is better here. But another reason may be Irish people who lived in the UK most their lives and return here to retire. I've an Aunt who did that because in her retirement she wanted to be close to family.

    sounds a bit dramatic ???

    Everything they do is accompanied by noise and shouting.
    Awful awful specimens of society.

    They can only get the Irish pension if they’d worked in Ireland. If they’d never worked here, they’d only get the Uk one. They would, however be entitled to a medical card.

    My neighbours moved to the UK when young. They reared a family and returned in their 60's. Their pension is paid from the UK. They're in their 90's now!

    I was at the bottle banks in Loughrea yesterday and the clothes bank is just beside them, some people left bags of clothes there because the bank hadn't been emptied and next thing a few pavees hop out of a car and steal the lot.

    They didn't even care that we all saw them at it.

    I didn't realise that, I think my aunt is getting the Irish pension but maybe she worked here at some stage.

    She came back under some scheme as well that allows emigrants to come back in retirement and got a lovely little flat.

    Now come on, do you really care about someone taking clothes that someone else was getting rid of?

    I don't get it?

    Well if you don't get it there is no point trying to explain it to you.

    So you see no issue with stealing form charities? I guess anything that's an easy target is fair game.

    They will pick out what they want. Puma, Nike, Levi's, whatever. The rest will either be fly tipped into a ditch(any black bins bags near you?) or they will try to sell it by the kilogram to one of those export places. And it's stealing from the charity!

    Those clothes were donated to charities. Stealing from anyone is bad enough, but stealing from charities is beneath contempt.
