Campaigners have staged an anti-eviction protest at the gates of Dale Farm traveller camp.Let’s have a look at the clowns, shall we?
Yves Cabannes, a professor at the University of London and chairman of the UN advisory group on forced evictions congratulated the traveller families on continuing to live illegally at Dale Farm in the face of the council’s threat to remove them by force.I guess he isn’t a professor of law?
Ah, it seems his ‘expertise’ is in ‘urban and municipal governance’. How lucky Dale Farm is, to have such a towering intellect on their side…
He said: “A forced eviction is the wrong way to go about things. If Dale Farm is not suitable, that is not the responsibility of the people.It’s ‘not the responsibility of the people’ who are breaking the law, but the responsibility of the society that builds that law for its people.
“It is for the Government to deliver what it is expected to deliver, which is proper pitches or places for them to settle.”
Wow! I think he just uttered a rallying call to a whole host of freaks and weirdos and anarchists and…
Oh. They’re already here:
Protesters in camper vans, from as far away as Croatia, Kosovo, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Scotland and Wales arrived to demonstrate on what had been declared World Zero Evictions Day.I wonder if they’ve all gone, or if they’ll stick around for the dénouement?

I suppose the police could just come along and evict them all :D
Mind you I expect they were busy in Thurrock when the great unwashed UAF tried to turn up to stop the BNP from getting elected and ran right into the EDL who stopped them getting off the trains.
XX proper pitches or places for them to settle.XX
Which part, or parts of "Traveller" does this twat not understand?
I think we should nuke the entire site from orbit - it's the only way to be sure...
World Zero Evictions Day? Is there a need for that? Zero evictions seems to be about par for the course on an average day.
I couldn't go I was at the 'Justice for Smiley Culture' march and vigil in London today.
Naaaaah I wasn't I had some gardening to do!
What a bunch of *****!
"Which part, or parts of "Traveller" does this twat not understand" ?
That's just it Furor .. when it suits them, these Caravan Utilising Nomadic Travelling Sorts want to be free to roam .. and when it doesn't suit them, they want permanent sites on which to create their Scrap yards & store their Tarmac & untaxed vehicles ..
The decision as to which role to play, depends very much on which way the political & sympathy winds are blowing at the time ..
I recall in Doncaster a while ago that White Rose Way was renamed Black Smoke Way by the locals because of the need for travellers camped alongside the road to burn rubber tyres all day, every day.
But hey, the environ-mentalists wouldn't have objected because it's their culture, innit?

Is White Rose Way the road leading to the car park of & entrance for Potteric Carr Nature Reserve please ?
That saucy Professor Cabanes may have a little gypsy in him but we can all learn from his social extremism and by sharing experiences. For those who have yet to indulge their taste for gypsy, I recommend one of Yves favourites - the simple 'la choucroute et crêpes'. However you must take care to thoroughly clean, delouse and disinfect your gypsy; removing parts which are always heavily contaminated with copper and lead such as skin, hair and nails. Leave to hang for a few days then mince and fill the sausage skins. Burnt tyre flavouring is optional.
Etiquette requires slow grilling on the barbie with stylish al fresco service. In this way you can enjoy sharing the great outdoors with someone who always destined to get under your skin.
World Zero Evictions Day...
Wow! it must have been scary protesting against Mugabe's forced evictions of the white farmers....

"World Zero Evictions Day? Is there a need for that? Zero evictions seems to be about par for the course on an average day."

Captain Haddock" "Is White Rose Way the road leading to the car park of & entrance for Potteric Carr Nature Reserve please ?"
As far as I recall, yes it is/was. Not driven down it for a while so unless Donny council have renamed it, so it remains.
