Why, Oh Why, Oh Why do we allow so-called new age travellers such freedom? Not only are they probably communists, but so-called new age travellers have this week been revealed as squatting houses left empty by families on holiday.

If only the Government and the guacomole-munchers of Islington were a little less concerned with helping Johnny-foreigner and a little more concerned with the rights of the hard working majority of our glorious Nation, then perhaps so-called new age travellers would not get away with such treachery.

That certainly seems to be the opinion of Norman Tebbit who this week said, "our prisons are like holiday camps.".

So, next time you are at a dinner party and the menu involves sun dried tomatoes, just consider whether you think that squatting houses left empty by families on holiday is acceptable behaviour.
