Halibut Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Hey, how come they always want a premier location such as the rural one in Essex.There`s a few acres coming vacant soon at Sellafield, or maybe Douneray in Scotland. Alternatively, there`s a little Scottish Island called St Kilda that would suit them just nice. What makes you think they'd want to live at Dounray any more than you would?

retep Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 You are ignorant of the facts ie the site is a former scrapyard:loopy: The first of these pictures shows the land as open fields in the 1970s before what is now Europe's biggest site was built. Just five years ago Dale Farm was an undiscovered semi-rural cottage by a scrapyard at the end of Oak Lane which had a legal traveller site, which was relatively unknown outside the village http://www.basildonrecorder.co.uk/news/echo/1065414.How_did_Dale_Farm_get_so_big_/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cess Pitt Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Yes they can. Travellers is what they are not what they do. It's an ethnic identity No its not. :hihi: They are just a bunch of caravan dwellers who refuse ti fit in with the rest of society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimay Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 The travellers have, ahead of others on the housing lists, been offered social housing. Other traveller sites in East Anglia have spaces and several of the travellers own land and property in Ireland. Quite a few of the travellers who were on the illegal part of the site have been moving on over the last couple of days. If they are allowed to break planning law I wonder how many other people would also start to break planning law which would then in turn cause a nuisance to their neighbours.

Cess Pitt Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Good luck to them. The council needs to get it's finger out and help them find suitable alternative sites. Why Councils have NO obligation to provide these people with sites . They are there ILLEGALLY and should have been booted off the site years ago .
