I'm not a lwayer but it seems to me that this kind of behaviour is prima facie a criminal conspiracy to contravene the planning laws under the Criminal Law Act 1977. Section 1 of that act states that "if a person agrees with any other person or persons that a course of conduct shall be pursued which will necessarily amount to or involve the commission of any offence or offences by one or more of the parties to the agreement if the agreement is carried out in accordance with their intentions, he is guilty of conspiracy to commit the offence or offences in question."
If that act still applies (even with the interference of the Human Rights Act) this is something the authorities should use in all such cases. The result would be that you could bang up the whole lot of them rather than have the usual limp conclusion of getting them off this bit of land for them to resettle illegally (and for years) further along the road.
Mind you, schadenfreude certainly kicks in where Mrs Mills (funnily enough another possible candidate for use of the 1977 act in light of her activities in the mortgage market) is concerned.
or even a lawyer!
Cool! Let's lock 'em all up! I bet they won't though.
How about, retrospectively designate the field a new prison site or reception centre - the state does not have to own it - and allow them to install their own cells and facilities in the form of caravans, then put up gates to stop people getting in and tag them so they can go out and do jobs etc.
Can't see the objection - except for the tagging, it is pretty much the same as some retirement caravan sites on Canvey which have gate security. If you consider the number of Canvey residents wearing locators and those 'panic alarms' the difference is minimal.
If it is a prison, they can smoke in their caravan social club - prisons are one of the few places I believe the ban doesn't apply.
All a bit tough if a prison suddenly materializes next door to your house, but it is probably better to be next to a prison where people are trying to get in rather than one where they are trying to get out.
WOAR, that's all fine except this bit "tag them so they can go out and do jobs". 'Bank job' to you or me means working at the counter, to them it probably involves masks and shotguns.
Why would a Labour politician want to live in a £1m house in the countryside rather than on a council estate amongst her supporters!?!
