Ah yes, the poor Roma. Persecuted all over Europe.

And they're such lovely people too.

Well they seem to be able to a decent job of persecuting themselves.

Almost 10 persons per address... that's luxury by their standards AFAIK.

But the youngsters, believed to have been forced into a Romanian-based Roma gang of beggars and pickpockets, can generate Â£100,000 annually from their activities, according to the police.

And virtually all of the proceeds make their way back to southern Romania - to towns where huge houses have sprung up and prestige cars line the streets.

You'd have thought the authorities in Romania might be interested in where these people are getting their wealth from. Unless, of course, they're paying tax on it and the authorities don't care.... :confused:

Re: 28 found in child trafficking raids

This story is enough to make you sick, Each member of our society has to keep an eye on things like this and report it.

We have to protect children at all cost's as there is always someone out there who will use them, in most dispicable ways, it does not only go on in this country, but all over the world.

You never know but this is what could have happened to Madeline McCann.:shocked:
