A credit to the nation! British traveller family hang around shirtless and swigging Red Bull outside New Zealand hotel as they say they will SUE mayor who declared them 'worse than pigs'
- Auckland Mayor Phil Goff also called them 'a*******s' and 'trash' on local radio
- The family are accused of fleeing cafes without paying and trashing a beach
- They received deportation notices but have instead checked into another hotel
- One member was caught shoplifting while another was charged with assault
The British gypsy 'family from hell' accused of leaving a trail of destruction across New Zealand have threatened to sue the mayor of Auckland who called them 'a*******' and said that they were 'worse than pigs'.
Auckland Mayor Phil Goff made the comments to a local radio station after the group were caught dumping rubbish on Takapuna Beach and allegedly threatening to mow down a witness.
The four adult Dorans were served with 28-day deportation liability notices by New Zealand’s immigration service.
But they show no signs of leaving yet and have checked into a hotel near Auckland airport.
The family were seen checking into another airport motel in Auckland and getting cash from a cash point, showing no signs that they are leaving New Zealand
One member of the group, Joe Doran was pictured standing outside the front of a motel smoking and spitting
Photographs show various family members standing on the street with their belongings smoking and spitting; some are sipping red bull and others are carrying a six pack of beer.
The clan, who have lived in caravan parks across the East Midlands in the UK, are now so notorious that a hire car they crashed and abandoned in Auckland has been stripped by souvenir hunters.
They ditched their rented seven-seater Honda Odyssey after crashing it into a curb on Thursday so hard the airbags popped and two tyres burst.

Joe Doran, who also goes by the name Miley, said his father crashed the vehicle because he was distracted by people calling them 'gypsy scum' while reversing in Mangere.
But as the travellers fled the crash scene, souvenir hunters stripped their car of its number plates, tax sticker and keys, apparently left in the ignition.
The Dorans, including matriarch Barbara Doran, 55, her husband Larry, their son Joe and his wife Eileen, have caused mayhem since arriving in New Zealand last month.

Joe Doran picks up his baby daughter, as his family were on the best behaviour following accusations that they damaged their apartment and allegedly stole a journalist's phone
Although the family have been accused of running from restaurant without paying, a manager who served the family yesterday said he had no problems and that they paid in full in cash and said it had been a lovely meal
The Doran family, who have lived in caravan parks across the UK, do not seem ready to leave New Zealand as they checked into another hotel
The tourists face claims they trashed a beach, left a cafe without paying, damaged their apartment and allegedly stole a journalist's phone.
One of the family's children was filmed threatening to 'knock the brains out of locals who challenged their behaviour during a fortnight of chaos.
They also left a hotel room in Wellington strewn with cans of Red Bull, spaghetti and cigarette butts and smelling of poo, it has been claimed.
One woman in the group was caught on security cameras stealing sunglasses, rope and drinks from a service station.
Tina Cash, 26, pleaded guilty at Hamilton district court and was fined £29. On several occasions the group ordered meals at restaurants and then claimed that the food was contaminated with ants or hair and refused to pay for it.

Another member of the group, 26, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is charged with assault with a weapon, reckless driving fraud by dishonestly using a document. He appeared at Auckland District Court and was bailed until February.
Last night they enjoyed a relatively quiet night by having curry at an Indian restaurant near their hotel.
Stripped to the waist in 25 degree heat Joe, who earned the nickname 'Honest John' in New Zealand for lying about his real name, was seen spitting and often smoking and swigging from a can of Red Bull as he cradled his baby daughter.
His wife Eileen helped him push the little girl's pram as family went on their sole outing of the day, walking to the curry house as they were joined by a younger, blonde girl.
Barbara Doran, 55, and her son Joe, were spotted withdrawing cash in Auckland where they have checked into another hotel, despite saying they were going to sue the city's mayor
While other restaurants have claimed the family have run off without paying or claimed about hair or flies in their food to avoid payment, yesterday the Dorans were on their best behaviour.
'We knew exactly who they were as soon as they appeared,' said the manager. 'Everyone in the shopping precinct knew, and the family knew we knew. But perhaps they have learned a lot because they were quiet and polite.
'I didn't try to talk to them because I sensed they didn't want to communicate but they paid in full in cash and said it had been a lovely meal.'
WHO'S WHO IN THE UNRULY BRITISH FAMILY ROILING NEW ZEALAND?
Matriarch Barbara Doran says the family are 'very frightened, honestly'
THE MATRIARCH
The matriarch of the unruly clan being hunted by outraged Facebook vigilantes is grandmother Barbara Doran, 55.
Mrs Doran has told Daily Mail Australia that she is too scared to sleep at night.
The family feel they are being 'tortured' by the public and insist they have done nothing wrong.
'I'm very, very frightened, honestly,' Mrs Doran said.
THE FAMILY SPOKESMAN
Family spokesman Joe Doran
Her son, Joe Doran, has become the family's number one spokesman, sparring with media at different sites across the country.
Social media vigilantes tracking the family across New Zealand have dubbed Mr Doran 'Honest John'.
That's because he has repeatedly given his name to reporters as 'John Johnson'.
THE SPOKESMAN'S WIFE
Joe's wife is Eileen Doran and pictures on Facebook show the couple dancing happily at their wedding in 2017.
THE RED BULL THIEF
Tina Marie Cash faced a New Zealand court last week and pleaded guilty to theft charges relating to a stolen Red Bull, rope and sunglasses.
WHERE ARE THEY FROM?
The family has lived in various caravan parks around the East Midlands in the UK.
Neighbours who say the family lived on the Washingborough Road caravan site in Lincoln say Joe Doran left the area two years ago 'to escape trouble'.
He is believed to have then moved to a second site in Bitteswell, Leicestershire, where he lived for a brief period.
A neighbour, who knows the family, told MailOnline: 'We are family and we stick together.
'Everything that's been said about them in New Zealand isn't true. They are a good family.'
One member of the family has bizarrely claimed they are related to Britain's 10th richest man.
