We should follow examples of other countries and remove them completely or force them to work and make a valid contribution to society.

The police do as much as they can against these sorts of people. They are bound by laws which prevent them from doing what they know they need to.
14.13%
The police/council are scared of these travellers hence their reluctance to take people's claims about them seriously.
