No pikeys on here to balance it, I guess. If anyone here feels like supporting pikeys, please do, but also state where you are located, so we can direct them all accordingly.

Travellers/gypsies/pikeys/**** - is there a meaningful distinction?
All I've ever seen is dirty people in clean caravans with way-too-expensive and/or should-be-written-off vehicles camping on land that isn't theirs (or anyone else's) to camp on. And if/when they leave, the place looks like landfill. I don't care what you want to call them - I know them by what they do.
So councils can keep
trying to evict them. With the police being limp-wristed, spineless good-for-nothings in cases like this, this verdict doesn't change anything, unfortunately.
