Caravans in Preston park

[Czechmate]

Simple innit , don't allow anyone in from Ireland unless they have a visa , and they won't be able to get a visa unless they have a permanent address , that will slowly reduce them in the UK and stop anymore coming in. The reason they are here is because Ireland won't let them get away with it like they do here.

Yeah right, Are you sure that would work.

 

[maltaseagull]

Just arrived. Any idea's?

Seem to have horses roaming free? Travellers?

Romanian Olympic team?

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Romanian Olympic team?

Dont you mean "Roaming Olympic team" ?

 

[Southern Toon]

I hear there's some nice grazing land over Firle way & i'am sure the Firle Bonfire Society would give them a nice warm welcome?,Job done.

Let's not worry too much - the £1.5m the council are spending on a new travellers site is going to solve the problem ( according to the council ).

Government, not council.

Not all Gypsy's/Travellers are from Ireland...

 

[Prodigal Son]

Or should it be "Romany Olympic Team"

Could they be there for a ploughing match, hence the horses?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

My mole tells me they have Irish accents.

 

[Westdene Seagull]

Government, not council.

Council spending government money therefore my post wasn't inaccurate. Also it's the council saying it will solve the problem.

Have they paid the Parking Fee?

No, because they cleverly parked away from the parking area, on the grass.

Top of the park on the grass. Hopefully they will still be there on Saturday. Will be nice to have a bit of company during my eleven hour shift.

Sadly they were moved on BOF, but they left you loads of rubbish to clear up if it helps? And maybe some horse-shit?

Fair play to the police, they had a car there when they arrived but within hours had been moved on.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Boo! I was hoping for a lithe young wonder dressed in lycra to fawn over. Ho hum. They should have it all cleared up by my Saturday shift.

Agreed , but at least it's a start .

 

[Czechmate]

Well least i am trying some positive solutions more than this Liberal country UK is doing.

And i don't think it will do much for Palaces dwindling support either !

Glad i am in Czech where we only have Eastern European Gypsies , who steal , fight , expect the country to look after them

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

I wonder if they will still be there for pride weeked.

That should be a laugh,"My big fat gypsy fisting."

 

[grubbyhands]

Dont see the problem myself, live and let live , eh ?

Surely you don't mean that. Just what Preston Park needs,shitty nappies and all the other filth that scum like this inevitably leave in their wake. Freeloading, thieving, soap-dodging low-life.

Have they paid the Parking Fee?

Bloody hell. Forgotten who owns the chalet cafe. Blonde moment. Used to play for Brighton in the 80s.

He has a petition to have parking free for the first three hours.

Sign it.

The rubbish left by the travellers will be comparable to the rubbish left by the wonderful 'law abiding' citizens and I bet they won't scorch the grass and singe bins with disposable barbecues.

They've not said they can solve it. That's you making that bit up. In fact, they specifically said finding a permanent site won't solve the issue. I think you're getting your mis-quotes mixed up.

It's the council spending ringfenced government money (i.e. they can't use if for anything else) in the form of a grant in order for the council to undertake a legal obligation. This means a workable plan must be in place before they can receive it.

The proposed resolution is EXACTLY the same as Labour and the Tories have been proposing for the past 20 years - i.e. place them mostly at Horsedean. This time, someone is actually getting on with it.

Whether it's the right decision is another matter - all parties have come up with exactly the same resolution over the past two decades.

Palace must have their dates muddled up !
