I congratulate Jon Austin for his excellent reports on travellers at Dale Farm and Smithy Fen, Cottenham.
As a resident of Smithy Fen settled community I have first-hand knowledge of how these large, unlawful sites can affect your life.
It is important to keep records of all incidents, number plates, names, pictures, etc, as one day they will help in an inquiry to tie in people at unlawful sites elsewhere.
Unfortunately, these people will go to any lengths to get planning permission and to make money.
Without these reports from Jon, people do not always realise what's going on and how unjust it can be.
I only wish Jon Austin worked for the Cambridge Evening News!
J Smith
