Shay Clipson who is the founder of the National Alliance of Gypsy, Traveller and Roma women told 5live's Sarah Brett that the English rugby squad 'must think the travelling community are all extremely naïve'. Speaking in response to head coach Eddie Jones' comments, made after the match, Ms Clipson said Joe Marler 'cannot make mistakes like that and expect to get away with it. There isn't a problem with the word gypsy, there isn't a problem with the word black, but if I push somebody in the chest and call them "black boy" immediately I'm committing a racially aggravated offence'.
