So you see me being a Gypsy as a failing, or not bumping this thread!

The Racism towards a distinct racial group is amazing, it's hidden as personal abuse but the drive comment is symptomatic of the problem!

Then go away!

Yes.. That exactly what I said... stop twisting.. Its old and boring

On a side note...
Do you live in a caravan? how does your life compare to that of a traveller?? Do you have any connection to your heritage these days?

I see so you wish to attack my cultural heritage.

😆

Cultural heritage? Whirly, I have blood ties to gypsies/travellers/whatever-you-want-to-call-them of old but I do not parade around defending my 'cultural heritage' from anyone who so dares to criticise. It's not even my culture now, it's something I stemmed from. Same with you.

Shut up sweetie.

Other then your blood line, do you have any ties to the culture your defending??? Have you even been to your homeland?

Because you have no problem with racial comments aimed at an ethnicity you say we share please do not ask me to.

"Discrimination against gypsies and travellers appears to be the last 'respectable' form of racism.

The CRE

"It is still considered acceptable to put up 'No traveller' signs in pubs and shops and to make blatantly prejudiced remarks about Gypsies and travellers. "

A CRE spokesman said: "Many public bodies, including local authorities have a legal obligation to eliminate discrimination, promote equality of opportunity and good race relations.

"This applies to all racial groups. CRE is keen to establish the extent to which local authorities are meeting these obligations in relation to gypsies and Irish travellers.

The organisation said the information from the scrutiny exercise will be used to produce guidance for local authorities.

It will set out what they should be doing in relation to gypsies and Irish travellers, to meet their statutory race equality obligations, and giving good practice examples.

The new scrutiny project 🙂 The last ended in 2004

Written evidence should if possible be submitted in an electronic format, either on disk or preferably by e-mail. E-mails should be sent to [email protected] with the title ‘Call for Evidence’. Written responses should be addressed to the Gypsy and Traveller Scrutiny Team, St Dunstan’s House, 201-211 Borough High Street, London SE1 1GZ. Please include a contact name, telephone number and postal address, though this is not essential. Submissions should be as brief as possible, but no more than 3000 words.

Enjoy 🙂

It appears despite numerous mods on KMC being from Britain they do not share the British Governments opinion on Racism towards travellers.

Closed on request of the thread starter.
