Tess lives in a truck with her son Toby and their dog Teabag and moves around the country in a set of books recommended by the Department for Children, Schools and Families.The tales, aimed at ages three to seven, are on many education authorities' reading lists.
Unlike the middle-class, two-parent families that usually star in such books, Tess is a single mother and at no point is Toby's father mentioned.
And instead of a trip to the market or the beach, the stories show Tess making money cash-in-hand at a car boot sale and other travellers earning a living by picking fruit.
They also describe a gipsy dance at a horse fair, meeting friends who run a circus, a trip to a green gathering and fixing a flat tyre on the family's mobile home.
Needless to say I have taken the piss out of this with the pic.
Previous on pikeys:
Don't object to thieving pikeys living near you as its naughty......The homeowners, who were among 3,500 respondents to mid-Bedfordshire district council's Gypsy and Traveller Consultation, received letters rejecting their contributions on the grounds that their comments were racist.
Pikey scum attack Basil Brush for portraying them as thieves....The children’s television character Basil Brush is at the centre of a police investigation after an allegation that an episode of the programme was racist towards gipsies. A complaint was made after an episode of the long-running BBC show aired in February this year, which featured a gipsy character selling pegs and lucky heather and a joke about a fortune teller stealing Basil’s wallet. Gipsies have reported the show to Northamptonshire Police alleging that the storyline is racist towards their community and way of life.
And some pikey cartoons to annoy the CRE....Chef Marco rebuked over 'pikey' remark.
Don't call thieving pikey scum itinerant travellers....As part of his election campaign to win a council seat, Carl Lewis started a petition to evict travellers from an illegal caravan park.And some pikey cartoons to annoy the CRE....Chef Marco rebuked over 'pikey' remark.
Marco has been condemned by the racial equality watchdog after he used the word "pikey" on his ITV show.
The Commission for Racial Equality called on the chef to apologise after he was heard telling celebrity contestants on Hell's Kitchen: "I don't think it was a pikey's picnic tonight."
He spent hours circulating leaflets that highlighted the problem of the 'itinerant travellers' and his concerns struck a chord with residents.
But those two rather ordinary, functional words have brought the wrath of the Commission for Racial Equality down on his head.
Last night the CRE announced it was launching legal proceedings against Mr Lewis because it believes his campaign material is racially discriminating.
An some more just to piss off the CRE and others in the "righteous"
Labour steal your land for thieving pikeys.
Labour steal your land for thieving pikeys.
