A rather comical article in today's Scotsman discusses the outcome of Kilroy-Silk's 'week with the gypsies' for a TV documentary. It has the following inspired opening:

"In every Western society, there’s a group of people against whom it’s easy to be prejudiced. We don’t trust them, not do we like the way they look. We don’t know quite how they make a living. All we know is, they never seem settled, causing trouble wherever they go and leaving behind a mess. For all these reasons, the Kilroy-Silks of this world are an easy target for bigots."
