It's a caravan site, without planning permission that's cost the local community millions of pounds and 10 years of grief.

I think it would've been better just to leave them there, it's costing £81m to move them and they have nowhere to go. At least when they were there they were there, now they're going to be on other people's property and probably damaging it.

They said they'd move peacefully to it but it would take a few days.
I do agree that one rule for one and one for another isn't on but in this case I don't see what harm they were really doing there - a part from the usual harm that gypsies do anywhere. They're just going to go and screw up some other place and probably be even more disruptive than they would've been
There isn't enough places for travellers to live is what this all boils down to, until that gets sorted there's just going to be more of this shit.

If the labour government kicked them out when they first started moving onto that plot then it wouldn't have cost so much and maybe they would've had somewhere else to live by now.
It's not fair that ordinary people can't live by the same rules but how do you tackle something like Gypsies? They're a problem and they don't abide by the rules whoever no one really seems willing to truly stand up to them so they're going to get away with all this shit constantly.
Dale farm is the symptom not the problem and I personally believe that moving them out is going to make things worse. Harrow's already spent laods of money fucking up it's road side to stop them living on it.
