Two men were knifed to death recently on an exit slip on the A14 at Ipswich

Since then there have been retributions including a horse dying and a caravan being burnt

Allegedly there is a rift between the Essex travellers and the Ipswich group. Ipswich A&E was rammed full the other day

Amazing really.

I think there is an "official" media line with Suffolk Police and things are being played down. Social Media on the other hand may work on a bit of hearsay and exaggeration but things are a tad more serious than is being reported

Residents are asking why the air support helicopter is up over the traveller site so much - well I'm informed there's a crew been down from Yorkshire who've basically demanded to be let on site to sort things out and things have kicked off massively

No such thing as a quiet neighbourhood and now a few of the "settled" local travellers have fleed to goodness knows where

Might be time to lock stuff away and check your remote gateways are blocked etc

Fancy suggesting that among their ranks may be thieves.:rolleyes:
That must be racist..... or at least something-ist.
Which is presumably why the Police Authority or more likely County Council Inclusivity bods, are trying to keep the lid on the story.
