A one-acre field in Kent village Sundridge sold for £167,000, bought by traveller Miles Martin Connors, sparking controversy and chaos. The council chairmans son was arrested amidst villager protests, accusing the council of shady deals and spreading false rumors about Connors ties to a slavery ring. Meanwhile, travellers grabbed fields in Surrey and Hertfordshire, highlighting the challenges councils face with human rights rules and few legal sites. Connors claims contractors rushed the job due to his wifes illness, leaving Sundridge bracing for change while the law plays catch-up.
