For all the celebrations coming from residents, and all the hand-wringing from the cultural marxists, isn't the reality that the actual travellers themselves aren't all that bothered? They're happy to kick up a fuss (or more accurately, get other people to kick up a fuss for them) because it will make future councils think twice before evicting an illegal traveller site, but in reality they just have to find another area to fleece and whether they do that at a legal site or set up a new illegal one, it doesn't really matter to them.
