Whoa, the UK is getting downright open and blatant about their marxism. I suppose the US having elected a socialist government, takes the onus from them, they don’t look as bad by comparison now.

Some have a camera handy when the gypsies try to take part of the Queen’s lands——

This would be more pertinent if what was described in the article was actually happening. In reality, almost the reverse is the case. Almost all attempts by gypsies to establish permanent sites fail because they're refused planning permission by the local council, in response to objections by permanent residents. Not all the daft policy kites highlighted in media alerts like this actually happen, and checks and balances between daft policy and common-sense administration do still often work.

But if they had permanent sites, they wouldn’t be gypsies..

The phrase “permanent sites for gypsies” seems like an oyxmoron to me...

Permanent site, transient occupancy. Gypsies often like to stay in a particular area for the same few weeks every year.

Why can’t the gypsies just buy their own parking lots for their “caravans”?

They frequently do, but are then refused planning permission to use them for this purpose (see above)

Don’t they have RV parks and campsites in the UK and how come the gypsies don’t use them if they do?

No gypsy would be seen dead in a commercial caravan park - and wouldn't be let in anyway.
