I think they should give them a permanent home somewhere in the mid Atlantic

an interesting development;
Yet new evidence has emerged that they own or are connected to houses in Rathkeale, a small town in the Republic of Ireland, often regarded as a spiritual home for travellers.
They deny any connections, yet some of them appear on deeds of homes, others on planning applications for houses and yet more on the electoral register.

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
OK, I am confused. I don't know much about this topic, so I started reading up on it. Wikipedia says that the travelers own this land. Is this true?
Dale Farm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dale Farm is part of an Irish Traveller halting site on Oak Lane in Crays Hill, Essex built on a former scrap yard and housing over 1,000 people. It is the largest Irish Traveller site in the UK.[1] The site has two parts, a legal site that has planning permission and a site where the land is owned by travellers but where planning permission has been refused. This land is classified as green belt and has been developed by the traveller community despite the lack of planning permission. The unofficial portion of Dale Farm is exclusively occupied by members of the Irish Traveller community, whose cultural roots are in the town of Rathkeale, County Limerick, Ireland.
It looks to me like the travelers own the site but that on at least a portion of it, they have not received official planning permission (I guess those are building or zoning permits?).
As much as I generally dislike the culture of travelers and gypsies, if they own this land, that does put a different twist on the matter. They're not squatters if the land owner(s) freely and voluntarily allow them to live there.
That being said, I also agree that zoning laws and building permits are important, especially in a very developed and highly populated country.
Yuck. I wouldn't want to live there or live near there, but who owns the land? That's their call as long as they are following local zoning laws and obtaining the correct permits.
I live in a very nice neighborhood but I can't park an RV out here - and if I did, my neighbors could take me to court - and win. And I'd have to move the RV.

Criminy! I have these Travelers all figured out. They're Europe's version of portable hillbillies!

I don't see what the big deal is, but maybe there is more to the story.
And by the way, and eviction notice is hardly ethnic cleansing, which is another term for genocide.
