Travellers back on Preston New Road

[Chas King]

The THREE caravans have gone now and left behind ONE bin bag of rubbish.

I think you will find that there are two more bin bags full of rubbish thrown in the woods at the edge of the field.

Yet another post riddled with half truths and urban myth.

No 'lady' would be fined for the 'baby' dropping litter from a pram - it's not possible in law.

'Dossers' leaving rubbish - they're homeless - where would you track them down to when they don't pay the fine? Similar logic applies to the travellers.

I've said it before and no body - not one of the keyboard warriors on here took me up on the offer - I'll go down there to the travellers and challenge them but I'm not stupid enough to do it on my own.
'Cowards' - the only cowards are those posting on here from the safety of their keyboards whilst extolling the 2 person enforcement team (one of whom is a 5 foot nothing lady) to go out and deal with the siuation.

To deal effectively with this alleged culture, (mobile crime wave is my preferred description), requires a fundemental mind change in how much support the Police will give to the Council workers in dealing with them.
At the moment it is 0.0000 of 0 and - the Police aren't interested because it ties up resources and is too much of a minefield around cultural sensitivity and Yooman Rites.

You all harumph and cluck about them not doing anything yet do nothing, absolutely nothing yourselves - some even hide behind the statement - 'they're paid to do a job' - it makes me sick.

So what do you suggest we keyboard warriors do .

Personally I'm not keen on getting imprisoned for murder, attempted murder, manslaughter or arson but said says he'll nip down there with you.

^^^^^


Can't argue with that.

Thanks for that Mr Saxon - made for interesting reading and, showed up the stark reality of the Police's attitude to the problem.
Sefton has a designated site in Formby but I'll knit fog whilst platting corn if Merseyside police ever use the powers referenced in the article.

I've never yet seen anyone plait corn or knit fog....probably the same as looking for Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster
