I'm not sure they all do much to help themselves. I don't know much about the differences in the travelling community, but there are families in my local town who are notorious. Similarly, I have a permanent Romany camp not too far from me and they are lovely. I do get that they're all tarred with the same brush and have experienced shocking treatment in the past, including the recent past.

Can't argue with that.
