Dale Farm eviction goes ahead

Yesterday saw riot police arriving at Dale Farm in order to begin the process of evicting residents from the farm. Although two men were tasered in the process, by this morning the bailiffs had arrived for the next stage; eviction.
The residents claimed they were promised a peaceful eviction, and yet with residents and supporters chaining themselves to their property and resisting the arrival of the 150 or so riot police, it did not go as planned and violent outbursts occurred.
It is estimated that the eviction could take weeks as the site is cleared, and the cost of removing the travellers has been put at millions of pounds. Ex-residents now face an uncertain future as they will have to head out on to the road again.
