In light of discourse today, just a little reminder that there is no such thing as the ‘GRT community’. It’s a label that erases and lumps together very distinct communities, with distinct histories and distinct challenges. (1/)

Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the devastating fire at the Redbourne site. A March 2024 report for @TravellersTimes raised urgent alarms: unsafe electrics, no fire systems. This tragedy could have been prevented.

Redbourne is not alone. Too many council-run sites are overcrowded, neglected, and unsafe. Local authorities must: Urgently inspect all sites Fix hazardous infrastructure Install proper fire safety systems

As the Crime and Policing Bill makes its way through Parliament, there is a chance to repeal Part 4 of the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act (PCSC) 2022. Tell your MP #Part4NoMore: action.gypsy-traveller.org/p…
