Toby Carvery Morecomb closing down for a day to avoid serving mourners of a Traveller funeral. Closing premises to avoid serving Travellers, is just as racist and discriminatory as refusing service at the door. #TravellerPride #TravellersPride youtu.be/QzousPtu4kA

Very proud of this woman. She didn't get the support from all the orgs, she didn't have an easy road and she didn't, ever, give up. May the road ahead of you Eileen Ní Fhloinn Be lit with the shining pride from all of us that stand behind you. We have to see it, to be it.❤

For three days, Flintshire Council sent a security firm, followed by Winston Smith to block residents of a site from leaving due to confirmed cases. Those who tested negative were also trapped in the site. This is discrimination & #racism. The Traveller Movement Friends, Families & Travellers TravellingAhead@TGPCymru

There is no such thing as "settled Traveller". A Traveller is a Traveller, whether they live in a house or a trailer. Whether we Travel or not. We are still Travellers and living in bricks and mortar doesn't change our ethnicity or origin.

Racist attack on a Gypsy home in the last few days. Notice the petrol can under the trailer door. Is this the natural result of Priti Patel MP 's performative prejudice unveiling plans for new anti-Gypsy legislation?

Those who say GRT don't suffer from racism are clueless. We can't enter shops, pubs, businesses etc without a problem or questions. We can't visit concerts, holiday parks, venues, unless we hide our ethnicity. We're stood on an abused. We suffer from racism from birth until death

Are people really surprised by the Pontins story? Discrimination against Travellers and Roma is rife in this country. They're routinely demonised in national and local election campaigns, the use of slurs is absolutely normalised, and hardly anyone bats and eye.
