I have a problem with a group of 20+ Roma squatting in a derelict property close to where I live.
The property in question has been empty since the previous owner died and it is impossible to track down anyone who has repsonsibilty for the property. This property does not have even the basic facililities including plumbing and hence this group is using the garden as their toilet and their private dump.
I contacted the council about it and they said since it was private property, there is nothing they can do and to call the guards.
I called the guards and they said call the council.
I called immigration and heard nothing back.
I have e-mailed my local councillors and TD's but nobody seems willing to publically deal with issue.
The council did send out a environmental office who posted a public health nuisance warning in English and in Romanian on the property but it hasn't improved.
The guards have even admitted that some of them are the same people who were living on the M50 so it inspires confidence on the security of our borders that they find it so easy to come back again.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do?
It seems like people are afarid of this issue because the racism card gets thrown out everytime someone dares suggest doing something.
