Controversy
The comic was reprimanded by the United Nations after featuring a strip called "The Thieving Gypsy ***".[19] During the resulting court case, UK newspaper The Sun ran a story revealing that the principal Roma man who initiated the action against them was being tried for (and was later found guilty of) handling stolen property. In the same issue Viz ran a short strip called "The Nice, Honest Gypsies", featuring a kindly Gypsy woman selling pegs door-to-door and helpfully returning forgotten change.

Most of the parks in my borough have had the gate locks broken and they've camped in said park for weeks on end whilst the council battle to get them evicted. They leave behind: excrement, rubbish, vile smell which we have to pay for to get the park clean again. If you do walk through park, you're met with abuse and intimidation.

Travellers have set up camp across the valley in the forest. I have to look at it everyday. It's far enough away that I can't see much but it annoys me they are defacing a beautiful area. They camped there about 5 years ago.
It was a private gated area that had enormous boulders in front of it. They hired diggers to move the boulders away and broke the gates to get in. They were evicted after about one year.
But they have come back. Been here about one year and no signs of being evicted yet.

I have only had experience with travellers who chose to give up their day to day existance to environmental issues, often turning up at sites of special scientific or natural interest to protest against road expansion, "development" and/or fracking. They are all thinking conscientious people who have given up jobs and "normal" lifestyles to do this. They try as much as they can to not leave a trace where they stop, down to small details like making sure their dogs' *** are buried and taking their rubbish to recycling places. I have a great respect for them, they are truly devoted people who have the best interests of people, plants, animals and the planet at heart.
