Facts!!   "The travellers, or tinkers as you prefer to call them, pay rent, council tax and utility costs and, like housing tenants, can be evicted for arrears."
To the best of my knowledge, the families involved are registered unemployed with children, and are in receipt of full housing benefit.

"The site in question has for some time been considered sub standard, and was scheduled for a refurb for some time, at a cost of £250,000, not the half million YOU posted as FACT."
The £250,000 is an estimate of cost, most local builders, of whom I am one, think that at least double that figure would be more realistic.


3. "It appears that the travellers were victims of vandalism by locals, not, as you claimed the instigators."

You must be fucking joking! The place was a fortress.....no local would want to, or be able to get in to vandalise it. The damage was all done by site residents...two of the families have had a long running feud.
Your "fact" no4 has been dealt with above, you obviously know nothing about this situation and you can take that as fact from someone who does.
