    Do we recognise their laws?

      No. But that's to be expected in a modern society. For the same reason Sharia isn't recognised as legal. Despite some ill-informed people occasionally claiming it is.
      Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

          Unless you can show some written constitution, they have no law just arbitrary customs

            We don't have a written constitution in the UK so why should travelling folk have one?

                  Apparently they now have bungalows as well as apartments.

                    Sorry lazy wording, we do have written law though, in numerous acts of parliament and also in case law.
                    To make a new

                    Act of Parliament
                    , the highest form of law, both Houses must read, amend, or approve proposed legislation three times and the monarch must give their consent. The judiciary interprets and develops the law found in Acts of Parliament or previous cases.
