Fair point. The state allow this to happen though. Weeding these lads out would be like a needle in a haystack to be fair to them. If privatisation of refuse services hadn't happened I don't think it would be such an issue.

It would have been cheaper to employ a whole team of security, dogs and proper fencing etc.

Interesting local story in Cork

Ellis’s Yard: Long awaited clean up of Cork dumping site underway

https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/ireland/elliss-yard-long-awaited-clean-up-of-cork-dumping-site-underway-907414.html

Ellis Yard is next to Spring Lane halting site

Lots of taxpayers money has been spent on numerous clean ups over the years

https://www.irishexaminer.com/ireland/cork-city-faces-250k-bill-to-clean-up-illegal-dump-yet-again-472859.html

One of the first comments was Culture, boss

Bernard "so funny, please do tell us about your culture boss" and "what a load of rubbish boss"

Bernard Sweeney certainly doesn't involve illegal dumping and living like a primitive..

Bernard’s reply to that

Bernard Sweeney wrote:

That's great news, and how British of you

So basically, dumping rubbish is fine because it is ‘not British’

Yet at the same stage Bernard is sharing 2-3 stories a day about how we are destroying the planet. He’s apparently an environmentalist yet he excuses dumping rubbish by the Travellling community as it’s a display of their ‘Irish culture’

I agree but doesn't that seem a bit concentration camp-ish

how long do you think CCTV would last?

Not very long I'll guess

Will be interesting to see what happens after the clean up

The site and the halting site have been cleaned numerous times before yet they always go back to a state of disrepair

Amazing to think we are in 2019 and the council hasn't heard of CCTV or even a litter warden????

Strange as if I park in Dun Laoghaire rathdown area with tax out a month I get a ticket stating I've no tax displayed.....

Litter warden would be run out of the halting site and any cameras would be covered or broken. Kids would be blamed for breaking them and nothing would happen.

Technically its not the Traveller's rubbish they are dumping there but its the Travellers doing the dumping.

They are offering door-to-door, cash in hand collection and bringing it there. When there is enough of it, they burn it which in turn causes the fire brigade to be called out. Where the kids in the neighbour halting site are only too happy to throw stones at or even block them from entering. They have driven the locals insane as this has been going on for years. Pops up on local radio all the time.

Now, the people who pay them are far from blameless here too! This 'prove how you dispose of your waste' bill can't come fast enough!

"The council spent more than €570,000 on three large-scale clean-ups of the site between 2003 and 2014.

A spokesperson for the council’s environment directorate said despite repeated clean-ups and several attempts at enhancing security, they have been unable to “break the cycle of illegal dumping” at the site.

The Traveller Visibility Group accepted that while some of the rubbish comes from the halting site, it said rubbish is coming from outside sources too.

You're literally the 14th person to post that link in this thread. Got any new material?

for anyone who hasn't seen it already

If you're one of the people who has seen it already (which you evidently are, even so far as being able to cite the exact number of times you've seen it) then it's not directed at you.

Grow up and quit your bellyaching.
