What is your View on Gyspies?

Well today and Yesturday The Sun Newspaper are running a Campaign about how the Gyspies are. It comes after Vice-Prime Minister John Prescott said it legal for Gyspies to stay on other people ground

it is all here at www.sun.co.uk

My view Point is that they should have there own speace BUT do not interfere with other people


I would like to hear Neil Pickup view on this Issue

what..like our own Soweto for travellers...they have their space, we have ours..out of sight, out of mind etc....love it..yeah why should anyone really have the right to an alternative way of living,a way that is shunned(in fact more like demonised) by us middle of the roaders.....and when I need to read up on travellers,I will always make sure I read that cornerstone of the great British society The Sun

I personally feel that there isnt anything fundamentally wrong with developing these areas for travellers..but I think they should also be allowed to interact with other people as well (unlike Mr Hinton).I think most peoples concern is that it will effect the price of the properties around the areas... I guess thats the way of the world these days

I think you can use both spellings, Romani international use Gypsies for instance, and if you type 'gipsies' into it will ask did you mean 'gypsies'

An OT classic, here... more grammar-corrections and misplaced links than serious discussion...

I saw a report on Gypsies the other day on the news the other day, and they were getting quite aggressive with this poor women trying to speak to them. They can only blame themselves for some ogf the poor press they receive...
