Voice of Byron regular, Nicqui Yatzi, spotted an article in the Geelong Advertiser about how the Blue Mountains Council has followed Byron Shire’s recent actions and banned the notorious Wicked Campers from its camping grounds..
The Advertiser says, “Notorious backpacker campervans covered in sexist, homophobic and racist slogans have been banned from Blue Mountains caravan parks.
Nicqui commented, “It seems like we have started a trend in Byron that is now spreading… The Blue Mountains Council has told Wicked Campers they are not allowed to enter two popular council-owned caravan parks at Blackheath and Katoomba.
The Advertiser described Wicked Campers as campervan hire vehicles marketed at young tourists and backpackers which rejoice in provoking complaints over their offensive cartoons and slogans.
“Now Blue Mountains Council has told Wicked Campers they are not allowed to enter two popular council-owned caravan parks at Blackheath and Katoomba.
“Staff will be given the power to eject vehicles they deem to have “misogynistic, racial and degrading slogans and imagery.”
Banned Them ! They are all along the beachfront and camped in side streets most nights.
Typical Byron Hype!
