I was listening to the debate and if anybody doubts, scientifically, the evidence of prejudice against Travellers, he or she should read the reports over 30 years that have been done systematically by an t-Athair Michaél MacGreil, where he shows that Travellers are the group against which there is the most prejudice in our society by a mile. Ironically, Irish speakers are the most in-group in Irish society and they would not have been 100 years ago.
