A group of 8 gypsy families who had been forced off the grounds of 2012 Olympics in England have now been relocated in Hackney in East London. This has caused resentment among the locals. The area is predominantly of the poor but the accommodation that the gypsies have been given was more than they ever expected. It seems the gypsies were not having any proper place to stay and were forced to occupy the Olympic venue for the last 13 years. Hence, the decision of the London Development Agency has come as a great relief to them. But those already living there feel let down at this largesse gifted to the gypsies.
