Scum.
Balls on these guys 😂
No they’re not. The farmer needs to get his mates in their tractors and get rid.
Fuckin scum.
Councils across the uk should employ these guys legally. They would get all the potholes fixed in half the time 😂
Those are very impressive logistics an project management skills.
This is the second time I read the term “travellers”
I dont think this is the right term
>the ‘illegal’ conversions are done without any planning permission, flouting development rules – with ‘retrospective’ applications later submitted to councils to allow the newly-constructed sites to remain.
Retrospective planning permission in situations like this should always be denied. This is not someone adding six inches to the width of their kitchen extension. Its a wilful flouting of planning laws.
Do they own the land?
“MailOnline understands it came after travellers legitimately purchased the plot of land.”
So they ‘seized’ a field they lawfully owned. Thanks Daily Mail.
Caravan windows are expensive and break from a distance.
There are ways to move these lot on.
Where are just stop oil when you need them.
Another example of those that ignore the Law going unpunished.
Looks like they are out of the way, in a small corner of a field. Enterprising.
Saw one popup near my house, they bulldozed the entire field similar to the photo, there was even a pretty wide river that ran all down the side of the field, yup they built an entire retaining wall all along it so they could extend the land halfway across the river.
Was a lovely experience, theft and vandalism only went up by about 400%, stolen vans and caravans and even cars some times, usually can get some quite cheap stuff like tools but ensure its bolted down because they will steal it from you again, and yes the police won’t enter because they get swarmed so there too afraid to do anything, instead there now expanding and instead of caravans building a bunch of bungalos side by side, lovely people mind as long as you don’t speak to them cause you won’t understand a thing there saying. I’m sure they have planning permission for all this stuff though. Its unlike them to not have planning permission (:
That land was promised to them 3000 years ago.
Great. A newly prepared silage dump for local farmers.
Now you know how Palestine feels.
And the police do absolutely fuck all. It happened at our work. Travelers took over the entire private carpark. We found human shits by the sides of the bins. We told the police, they came over had one look and said there is nothing they can do. We had to speak to the local biker gang who came over and threatened the travelers.
It’s nice to see some British builders who can operate quickly and efficiently.

It would be a crying shame if anyone used it for fly-tipping
Travelers lol, should be made to integrate. No special treatment.
Previous experience of tarmacing will have come in handy here.
If the building sector worked as fast as these guys we wouldn’t have a housing crisis or pot holes.
Build quality may suffer but it’s not that great as it is.
I thought this was a french traveller thing. As I read the comments, I realize they are the same everywhere. It’s crazy what these people can get away with.
Wish we’d target these cunts instead of talking about’dingy people’ often fleeing war torn countries. In my experience travellers cause far more trouble.
Travellers, doing all they can to continue their reputation,
No different to corporates and oligarchs grabbing land and fucking over the system
Over 80% of planing applications by travellers are denied
The usual refusal rate is around 10%
Systemic racism and discrimination forces travellers to camp illegally. Where are they supposed to go?
