It is called live and let live.
Having seen some of the disgusting mess that some travelling families leave behind....soiled nappies, household items etc........this is what causes the prejudice and dislike of the travellers.
And of course, I know that we shouldn't judge the many by the actions of the few, but it is really hard. It is much easier to go with the evidence of what we see on a daily basis.
Margaret i agree with what you have said, on the few occassion which i have temporarily stopped on disused land, carparks etc whilst waiting for the council to complete paperwork for us to move onto their sites.... i have taken everything to council waste centres.

Every Gypsy family,... by their nature,... have some means of travel and so should dispose of their waste.
