pass a law that stops travellers from illegal encampments & heavy fines imposed
I want a immediate action taken on illegal traveller sites and fines imposed in the same manor as road safety cameras do for speeding.
It took almost 2 weeks for the first travellers to be removed from the illegal encampment and within 24 hours another set up. So its very clear that neither our laws protect our citizens and the complete disregard and contempt that the traveller community has for law and order in this country
