Can the authorities just ban Travellers, or make them live like the rest of us?
Travelling is part of Gypsy culture. Gypsy Travellers have been around and mobile for hundreds of years in East Sussex and there is no reason to suppose that they are going to disappear in the near future. Even if the law permitted a zero tolerance approach it wouldn’t work if everyone operated it because you would just be shunting Travellers back and forth across borders.
