That said they then have the neck to whine & bleat about being persecuted & victimised, then some self important whiny bleeding heart has been/wanna be celeb will start mithering on about the "poor misunderstood gyps".

They do it to themselves, "my big fat gypo whatever" I've far to much self respect than to view this cobblers & as to the company responsible for actively encouraging these creatures ..... they should be strung up !

Between the gyps parading themselves in front of the cameras & the producers they're certainly reinforcing the stereotypical portrayal of how most folk see the gyp !
Dave, I wasn't talking about what you've just said, I was remembering all that stick that was generated not too long ago when we we were talking about whether we could use the p word or not - as I had mentioned them having to be close to a source of income (know what I mean?) didn't want to go too much further.

Trespass is a tricky one in English law - not usually a police matter, though in some cases it is a crime.
