It's like in the movie 'Night at the Museum' when the cavemen exhibit comes to life.

what i cant get me head around, is why the settled community rejects and discriminates against these champions of fair-play and culture? why cant we celebrate & embrace their differences?
what's wrong with us!

... and once again, the media are afraid to mention who actually was causing the trouble.

Not a mention of the 'T' word.

Imagine post Brexit duty free it'll be like the ****ing Hunger games

Think Bel Int'l have been having staffing issues for some time now.

Perhaps they've all been offered better paid brexit border-force gigs over in Dover,
The daily sailing around picking Iranians out of the Eng channel, and x-raying every 7th truck at the ferry port.

Much handier than seperating classy Celt v Rangers fans, or those full of burgers 'n brew from weaponising street furniture.

These horrible waste of humans are no doubt off for a week's holiday in some Spanish resort, and going to cause the same trouble or worse where ever they land, ruin other people's holidays, and then back in time to collect the dole, amazing how people who sympathise with these creatures are always to be found very silent when these incidents happen. I'm sure the police just stuck them on a plane as quick as possible, and who could blame them, it's not as if anything is going to be done to them.

It's the sort of spinelessness we have come to expect from a gutter rag.

They love an audience it seems. The more people looking the better.

They should be banned from travelling

alchemist33 · 03-02-2019 09:00PM

Just a publicity stunt to highlight you can get tours of the Game of Thrones set now

Travellers, in an airport, ...
Where were they heading?

the V&A has a wonderful Christian Dior retrospective running this month. Doubtless that will be a massive draw for them.

BorneTobyWilde · 03-02-2019 09:01PM

All over who gets the window seat.

4068ac1elhodqr · 03-02-2019 09:02PM

China sure wouln't be offering them any points on their new social scoring system,
they'd be lucky to gain entry to MaccyD's burger stores, under their new facial recongisation system.

If I lived in NI, I'd be calling for a hard border to keep them out. Wonder why they are flying out of Belfast and not Dublin.

BorneTobyWilde · 03-02-2019 09:05PM

I clicked subtitles on the youtube video and my computer exploded.

This might be a Brexiteer plot to undermine Leo.

degsie · 03-02-2019 09:07PM

Are travellers allowed to travel by more than one mode? Fascinating!

omega man · 03-02-2019 09:07PM

Based on this evidence the response time was shocking, particularly for an airport.

I’d like to think there is more to this and perhaps they were monitoring and didn’t feel immediate intervention was necessary.

I’m pretty sure airports can face large fines for security breaches but not sure if events like this are considered such.

Anyway the travellers (ironically actually travelling) are the real story here. Absolute scum of the highest order,

Genius, send a few of them up to Belfast. Leo's response would be interesting.

No, they'd monitor stuff like this from a distance. If it got really serious the police would jump in. If they went in there, all guns blazing, they could be accused of all sorts. Those lads are air side, so they can't escape. The police would be able to arrest time when things calm down.

Wheres Me Jumper? · 03-02-2019 09:14PM

Looks like the prospects of a Hard Border is creating political instability already.
first Derry, now this.

Zorya · 03-02-2019 09:15PM

It's nerve-wracking enough to be helplessly confined to a 500 mph tin can at 30,000 feet but imagine having those kind of bozos along for the ride. :eek:

If you were watch the fight from last week there are more dangers posed by cheese cakes out there. Not one of the useless sloths landed a punch.

I was Once on a flight with a few gypsies. By the time we landed the aisle was tarmacced, the trees were trimmed and I had a bagful of cheap totally not stolen power tools and a nice set of pots and pans. What’s not to like?

You could just imagine the people in the airport boarding flights hoping they wouldn't be seated beside them if they got through security!
