Dale Farm travellers eviction march starts at Wickford station. where all the varied support groups met up. The Dale Farm travellers led the march from the station followed by their supporters. along the roads of Wickford and Basildon.
@williamorwell If they are genuine Dale Farm supporters they will do some research. If they don't they are just in it for a laugh, or a pointless conflict. I am a Dale Farm supporter in that I would like to see the eviction called off... and the money spent on fighting crime. It's only wild speculation but I'm beginning to suspect there's an underground warehouse in the vicinity. It would make sense of the whole story if Crays Hill is a staging point for organised smuggling etc.
"Mum-of-three Bridget Gammell, 26, is registered at an illegal pitch at Dale Farm, but she is also locked in an appeal battle to stay at an unauthorised home at Victoria View, Smithy Fen.
In both cases, she said she came from Wolverhampton and was desperate for the home, claiming to have no alternative.
Yet she remains on the electoral roll at Broome Road, Wolverhampton, where her extended family live in 21 nearby homes."
"But the Echo has now unearthed conclusive proof that people from Dale Farm have been involved in illegal development at Smithy Fen and other sites.
Here are some disturbing examples:
* Dale Farm travellers Patrick Sheridan, Jeremy O'Brien, Michael Slattery and a Richard Sheridan paid £54,000 cash for green belt land at Pond Farm, Crays Hill, last January, using Flat 24, 58 Queensway, London, to register the purchase."
"If all 52 illegal plots gain planning permission, each will be worth around £150,000. The camp would therefore be worth £7.8million to plot owners.
Dale Farm originally cost traveller John Sheridan £122,000, which he paid in cash in 2002. The site was then split up and sold to other travellers for a total of around £600,000."
"But new evidence gathered by the surrounding community has found one couple, who were recently married in London, own a plot of land in Rathkeale and recently won planning permission to build a property there.
There are also examples of women who use their maiden names at Dale Farm but who appear on deeds of Irish properties with their husbands."
"Thus Travellers have abandoned their local authority houses in Ireland because they didn't like their neighbours, or because they hadn't been given culturally sensitive parking bays for their caravans......But in all truth, the inhabitants of Dale Farm aren't wholly to blame for believing that they have rights which the rest of us haven't got -- for this is a mantra they've heard their entire lives."
