Aside from who travellers are, do they actually travel, as in the days when they were known as Gypsies. There is a genuine traveller in my bit of leicestershire. Real old fashioned horse drawn small wooden van, camps on the verges of very very minor roads and gets on with life.
Another group I see live in very large vans, jacked up and with the wheels removed, certainly electricity, probably some water, and a brickbuilt ablution block. The latter are no more travellers than I am.
In Essex a group of nearly 80 families, in illegal occupation of some land are being moved on having been given 30 days notice before the police and the bailiffs get involved.
There was a quote from the forum's favourite paper but I went for this more local one
