I think nationality is (tenously IMO) brought in to this as traditional gypsies are of Romany descent. |
I have to admit, I never intended to bring Nationality into it, but I mentioned Romany Gypsies as I don't think it's fair that they are lumped in with Travellers and Pikies. They are not the same group of people, in much the same way that while Yardies may be Jamaican, I would not consider them the same group of people.
