Italians move travellers out and bulldoze illegal camp BUT, they pay em to leave. bulletsBcheaper

Maybe Italians too are beginning to get serious.  But paying ppl to leave, who don’t belong in your country to begin with, is appeasement of a different kind.  There’s nothing to stop them coming back.  A firing squad might work but short of that, not much else.

Damn, what a fuss was created when the Germans marched into Danzig.  Maybe the allies could have offered the Germans cash to leave the countries they invaded.

Everyone could have chipped into a pot of gold and said, here. Help yourselves but please don’t come back. 
Hey, you don’t know it wouldn’t have worked.  Nobody tried that approach. And we can all see how well it works today. uh huh.

We cannot allow these illegal camps to exist. Whoever comes to Rome must have somewhere defined to live or they must be on a legitimate site. We need to be able to control our territory.

Gypsies cleared out from outskirts of Rome following crackdown order by mayor

“The stench in the summer was stomach turning”

By Nick Pisa

Italy has become the latest country to begin a clear out of illegal Roma Gypsy campsites - just days after France began a similar controversial policy.
Twenty Roma travellers who had set up homes in camper vans and caravans were moved on from their site after being offered a paid for one way trip back to Romania.

The clear out took place at an illegal camp on the outskirts of Rome, which was then bulldozed by city council staff after mayor Gianni Alemanno announced the crackdown.
‘In order to rapidly achieve this objective we have created a special task force of 200 people who will deal with this situation. Twenty people cleared from one site have accepted a financial offer from the council to help pay for their return to Romania.

‘We have already had reports of a rise in the number of French registered cars parked at these sites.’
TV footage of the clear out at the camp at Quartaccio on the edge of Rome, showed a bulldozer knocking down a precarious looking shelter made out of wood and cardboard.
The area was covered in rotting rubbish and packs of wild dogs could also be seen scavenging for food while children played nearby as parents looked on at the destruction.

However not all appeared to have taken up the offer from Rome council with one Roma gypsy interviewed saying: ‘I’m not going to Romania. I’ll just set up camp somewhere else.

‘It’s worse in Romania - why would I go back?  ‘Lots of others ran away as soon as the council teams turned up and they will do the same as me.’

Italians view Roma Gypsies as responsible for soaring crime rates and mayor Alemmano’s ‘Operation Nomad’ as he has called it has been warmly welcomed.
Local resident Valeria Franco said:”It’s about time something was done about the Roma Gypsies.

‘The whole area was just a mess and the stench in the summer was stomach turning.’

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
