Traveller camp court fight fails

Here's my report on the largest unauthorised traveller site in England, which has failed in a last ditch bid at the High Court to prevent the eviction of families.

Basildon Borough Council has now been given the go ahead to evict families from Dale Farm in Essex.

But supporters of the travellers, including actress Vanessa Redgrave, argue there are alternatives.

The courts have ruled, but questions remain whether is there a clash between legal rights and human rights.
