A six year old getting a spray tan?! I feel like I'm waitching Toddlers & Tiaras all over again...

@Glorindellen Apart from Sam's dress and the Coach rental, I doubt this wedding would have been *too* expensive. They had the reception at 'the local social club', not some ritzy venue, and I may be wrong, but it appears they have a buffet rather than a formal sit down dinner. Also, from what I saw the decorations look home made. These factors alone would have been a huge saving. I highly doubt therefore that Sam's family paid in the six figures all up. :)

I've heard all the comments about how the travellers afford these weddings by not paying taxes and through suspect means, but how does this regular family pay the $100-150k these affairs are said to run? I know Sam worked, so I'm sure her savings went toward it, but still that leaves an incredible amount yet. The travellers may save for years in anticipations of these events, but I don't think her family would have.

I don't understand why these people left their caravans to be demolished. I suppose it could be out of some weird form of protest, but the whole purpose of caravan is it's mobility. But then the displaced people were able to get conventional housing, so maybe they didn't want the caravan anymore.

The inside of their house was actually really nice. Tasteful.

@AlayaLee The problem was that they didn't have the correct planning permission. Dale Farm is located in the 'Green Belt' which means it's in an area which has strict restrictions on density and urbanization. I believe the residents of Dale Farm were fighting for about 10 years or more for planning permission. Some of the trailers/residences received it- others did not.

Why are they being evicted? Do they not pay property taxes or something?

[BabyBlueBell05]

I don't mind their way of life, I quite admire their morals and dedication to their culture but I can't agree with the sexualisation of children

i try not to judge these people. they seem very kind and normal. they just have very old traditions.
