There are many different types of travellers Florge hard to generalise traditionaly they buy and sell vehicles,horses and scrap metals and pick seasonal crops apples potatoes etc they dont generaly buy houses but own their caravans so their cost are less than people who are static.
Regarding taxes only the unavoidable ones bit like the rest of us

If only they were just nice travelling folk picking seasonal crops but they're not.
I've only bad experiences of them.
1. They stole a hovercraft off me which was found by police in one of their camps hidden under a pile of pallets.
2. Whilst running a European hovercraft race meeting, pikies kept loitering outside the side entrance trying to blag their way on-site, possibly to head up an invasion of caravans. This site had previously been invaded by them and it cost the owners, RMC £40,000 in court and clean up costs.
It was very intimidating for the people manning the gate.
3. I once bought 2 TVs off a pikie which turned out to be non-operational. More fool me!
4. They invaded my local station car park. As I live in a commuter town for London, this car park is very busy during the week. They took up most of the car park and commuters were not prepared tgo leave their cars all day in the small remaining area. Accordingly they had to find alternative parking.
The mess left behind filled 5 skips and too a team of Council workers a whole day to clear up.
They drive expensive cars because the don't declare any income for tax, they steal and probably don't even insure their vehicles.
And then they try and claim that any objection to them is racist? Since when did thieving scum become a race?
It's very easy to generalise most of their income is derived from illegal activites mainly stealing and conning particularly from elderly/vulnerable people
I would agree with that
