You seem to be hanging heavily on Travellers not travelling.
Most Travellers will nowadays remain on a site for part of the year and only venture away in circumstances where they know they can return.
Thanks to the repeal of the 1969 camping and caravan act by the Tory Goverment which at one time required all boroughs to provide a set number of stopping spaces for caravans, Travellers are no longer free to travel as they once were.
Culturally they are a Travelling community, born to travelling life and officially recognised as such - even by your squalid little government.
Thank you for your latest vomit of bile - this time openly racist, aimed at Irish Travellers - it underlines my point perfectly.
The Travelling communities in Britain are made up of several races, English (Romany and non-Romany), Irish, Scots and Welsh, now with a smattering of Eastern Europeans thrown in.
Whether they are able to travel or not is immaterial to how they are officially recognised.
You really should keep taking your medication!!!
