That's interesting - it seems as if the assault on Middle England is now
well underway.

The cities and urban conurbations have already been lost to the
multi-cultural nightmare, and only in rural areas do the time honoured
values and traditions of Britain remain (albeit tenuously)

I still maintain that the Tinkers (many of whom are wealthy property owners
in Eire) are doing it for profit - but it could well be that they are being
manipulated by those intent upon destroying the last vestiges of
'Englishness' still remaining beyond the urban hell-holes.

What with the new Tinker strategies and Prescott's plan to build a new town
in every field larger than ten acres, the future looks bleak.

I did notice the CRE's excitement over the 'tinker' issue, BTW - Trevor
Philips paused briefly from counting his vast salary to solemnly observe
that
the plight of Tinkers/Travellers/Gypsies/Itinerant Tarmac Gangs is 'Worse
than blacks in the old southern states of America'........

One farmer who resorted to the age-old tactic of spraying the neighbouring
field with slurry when travellers arrived on his land, had his barn set on
fire by them, even though he said it was part of his normal practice at this
time of year. The police were 'powerless' to do anything about it because
of course no one was going to admit to it, the fire brigade was hampered by
children who deliberately got into the way of the fire hoses and the barn
burned to the ground doing thousands of pounds worth of damage.
The farmer was nearly arrested!

Yes - I think that as far as the tinks are concerned it's all about money,
but they fulfil the psychological needs of the left tribes to a) always have
a victim to support and make one up if necessary and b) to have some sort of
physical monument to their dominion over the parts of the land who don't
agree with their way of seeing the world.

Except that the above should read "in every field in a non-Labour area".
A friend of my husband owns a restaurant in Totnes and Prescott and his
cohorts stopped there for coffee one day. Prescott was overheard to say "how
do we get these peasants down here (Devon) to vote for us?" He then used
the word 'peasants' again in another context. Good little socialist
bar-steward that he is.

Sach,

I do not believe you. Name names and identify places. We could all make
vague aspersions like this against anybody. If we have an opinion we
clearly state it as such. There is no need to spread such fictitious
nonsense as a fact.

Regards.
JR.

I was a rather suspicious as well, when it didn't include a string of
profanities.
