I am sure it would be politically more incorrect to refer to the group as travellers, when in fact they refer to themselves as Gypsies.

My valuable input as you call it, is probably the same view as that of the majority in this country. Gypsies or whatever they call themselves should not set up camp where ever they take a fancy, I say good on countries who unlike the UK have the goolies to do something about it.

I think you will find little support of your sympathy from the working class tax payers in this country.
