England about to ethnically cleanse the famous "Dale Farm"

[Flankerl]

BBC News - Dale Farm travellers camp eviction notices served

"They will not leave voluntarily so I suppose the police will have to go in and I don't suppose the residents will welcome them with open arms."

Oh why is this happening?

 

[Father Heathen]

"Ethnically cleanse"? You probably shouldn't use such phrases so lightly.

 

[javajo]

Where will they go?

 

[England my lionheart]

It would be ethnic cleansing if it happened in Israel regarding the Bedouin for example but because its the UK its not a problem

 

[Klaufi_Wodensson]

I'm with Father Heathen, I don't see where you got ethnically cleanse from.

 

[England my lionheart]

They have illegally squatted and it has taken 10 years to remove them,if you have ever seen the state of an area where they had done this you wouldn't feel sorry for them.

You think Amnesty are mistaken in speaking for them?

From Amensty International site:

[T]he Council has not offered alternative culturally adequate housing to all those residents facing eviction.

Do I interpret that correctly to mean that "culturally" means they want to live in their caravans?

I respect Amnesty but in these circumstances i think they are

Basically yes,they would like the freedom to pull up wherever and camp,that sounds cool but its not there land

I wish I had a "cultural" pass for exceptions to be made so I could do whatever I wanted.

Someone is missing out on a great opportunity to start up a trailer park.

Me too,i think they do well enough,they don't pay tax (jealous) the Kids don't go to School,they don't work and magically drive nice cars,really the cultural part is bunk,real Romany Gypsies are nothing like these people.

There are Trailer parks and some settle in mobile homes,kind of half way between House and Caravan

They do have schoolling, they do work... and how do they get magic cars?

 

[Kilgore Trout]

They should start with the soap cleansing before worrying about the ethnic cleansing.

 

[England my lionheart]

They do have schoolling, they do work... and how do they get magic cars?

By magically fleeceing little old ladies out of there savings mostly,scrap metal liberated from Roofs (Lead) and Cars

Iam just using the term of the same matter on a different country.

Same matter as what?

A United Nations committee is calling on the government to suspend the planned eviction of travellers from the UK's largest illegal site.
