Rejected petition Remove traveller encampments the day they are reported
I demand that all traveller encampments are removed from private land, council owned land and any other areas where reports are made, by force if necessary. The UK taxpayers fund the cost of bailiff action, court costs, clean up and harassment on a daily basis when they arrive.
More details
Evidence supports that there is always an increase of verbal abuse, thefts of property and animals, violent threats and often actual physical assault.
The taxpayers have an annual increase in council tax, their homes and areas they live are violated and their families are abused. This has to stop. The public demand action.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Dealing with illegal and unauthorised encampments is the responsibility of local agencies, including local councils and the police, not the UK Government or Parliament.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
