Last of Roma abandon M50 camp

WORN down and worn out, the last of the Roma community left their filthy encampment in Dublin on an M50 roundabout yesterday after agreeing to be repatriated to Romania.

Just before lunchtime, gardaí escorted 34 adults and children to a bus that took them to a reception centre in Balseskin, near Dublin Airport.

They departed the country last night together with another group of 67 Roma gypsies who had left the roundabout on Tuesday.
