JimmyT If ever you had experienced the violence and intimidation this primordial species of itinerant can wreak you'd know why publicans (those that manage bars and public houses) refuse to have them on the premises.

Talking of special projects to educate them (which would be a miracle).I felt very disgusted at a recent case where a head master of a London infant school had sought to ban a traveler child from the school after a series of violent brawls in the playground involving his relatives and all sorts of threats of violence being made to ordinary parents of kids at the school resulting in small children being afraid to attend,only to be told by the moronic local education authority that his job was on the line if he went ahead with the ban.
