Brits Once Again Set to Push Roma Back Onto the Road

-
No Rest for the Weary
-


-
Beausale, near Warwickshire England, 13 families are once again being pushed back onto the highways by local government. Their RV style homes are again being subjected to the stereotypes of local British "town planning" committees. The land they are currently staying on is not used and neither subject to any upcoming development plans.
-
The community around the area however is dead set upon keeping the Roma out. It doesn't matter to them if the families need things like schools, health care, and permanent homes. They only view the Roma as a "stigmatic" population that is in their eyes certain to bring things like; prostitution, drugs, and crime.
-
Since May of last year these families have not once been reported to have instigated or even partaken in such things as those listed above. They have however attempted time and time again to integrate into the society around them. It is British society however that continues to push the Romani back out onto the road with its boot up their arse for good measure.
-
District councillor Sue Gallagher claims, “Nothing has changed. They are there without planning permission. It does not matter whether they are Gypsies or not. It’s a group of people on a greenfield site without planning permission. That’s what the appeal is for. “This is not a Gypsy hunt.”
-
And yet the Brits continue to only enforce these sorts of laws and regulations when convenient... or when a "Gypsy" is the target.
-
Locals have rallied behind Sue by forming a group they call Friends of Green Belt (FROG). This group is directly opposed to the Roma and their "development" of the Green Belt field. They would much rather see the field overgrown and unused than to allow the 13 families to live their.
-
As of today the local community has lodged over 400 complaints and a petition with 333 signatures that directly opposes the 13 families. The petition includes opposition to exactly 13 mobile homes, 13 caravans of "travelers", and 13 utility rooms on the site.
-
But we are supposed to believe that “This is not a Gypsy hunt.”
