I am just waiting for the human rights brigade (the odd failed solicitor or lady of the bottle) to say - well this is just their culture and we should leave them alone to get on with how they want to live. Where do we draw the line on law breaking - it would appear that police were too afraid to take any action. Another question how was it that everyone else on this site did not know about this.

These sites are no go areas for police and the outside community. Some of the people kept under those conditions have died over the years, and their bodies quietly disposed of.

Big dilemma!!! - will Vanessa Redgrave support the slaves or the "travellers"?
