Don't exclude city travellers
YOUR paper's reporting of the issue of traveller sites in Swansea, at no time gives an account of traveller views — you do not report what the law has to say on this issue, and you do not seem to write the views of local churches, politicians or civil rights groups in Swansea.
Your reporting is biased against travellers, and the "problems" of traveller sites are not explained by you or the traveller site opponents.
Good journalism is about finding facts, reporting all points of view, so that the public can make reasoned judgements on issues of interest. Travellers are a part of the human race, not aliens from Mars, let us not shame ourselves by excluding them.

“"Good journalism is about finding facts, reporting all points of view,"
True, but the South Wales Evening Post isnt known for its good journalism. Instead preferring to continually spew out right wing propaganda, opinion and misinformation for the small minded ignoramus' and bigots to digest and spread and to reinforce thinly disguised racism and further segregate society.
Part of a "Divide and Conquer" strategy favoured by right wing regimes and oligarchies (such as the current government) to control the plebs and peasants who mistakenly think they have a voice and say in how the system works”

“"Travellers are a part of the human race, not aliens from Mars"
I actually think Chimpanzees are closer to the Human race than Travellers are. They are certainly more polite and cleaner.”
