UK, Ireland / Anti-Polish sentiment of England [253]

My little 3 p again... I think that Roman and Bulgarian will emigrate towards the South of Europe... They're rather 'heat-liking' :) So Greece, Cyprus, Italy... The UK would be a target for organised crime (if any), so it'll be a challenge for the Police...

Yeah... every medal hath its reverse...

UK, Ireland / Anti-Polish sentiment of England [253]

Just to add my 3 pence here, from my humble Polish point of view, all the economical giants (the US, the UK, Germany, France) have built their power with the vast help of immigrants (i.e. cheap labour force). Is someone going to deny it ?

Mr Marcinkiewicz (more appropriately called Obiecankiewicz) ? He was a damp squib as a PM. He may have looked good, but in fact it was the best thing he could do.


They may pretend they aren't, but their politics makes them de facto socialists ((mis)conception of so called 'solidarity state')

That was the point of my previous post - you lose with local people if you want to get a better jobs (this is my experience, so I'm talking for myself only) - you have to accept the worst ones, in terms of both conditions and salaries.

Yeah... compared to Polish wages... but you have to spend your money in countries where you work, not in Poland (food, bills etc), and that's where all fun ends...

News / BRAIN DRAIN ON POLAND [101]

Thank you for some good words. It's not that I'm all happy to live abroad - I only considered moving abroad as an 'emergency plan', I also can see how they perceive us in the UK (invasion, Polish scum, etc, etc, not everybody of course, but there are always people who will stir), and I can understand that they are fed up with all that immigration, but I have to think about my future first, I'm not going to live under the bridge just because it's a Polish one. I would like to go back to Poland, but is there any future for me ?

News / BRAIN DRAIN ON POLAND [101]

I came to the UK, for I just couldn't find a job in my province. So I just considered that if I have to leave my home for a search of a job, and if that job has to be poorly paid, I would rather move to Britain, where at least I can augment my English and try to start new studies. But if I succeed with my plans, I'm probably not going back to Poland... If the general situation retains so unstable, I can't see a place for me there any more. Now I would come back only in the case of some misfortune.

Love / I'm upset - you encourage foreigners to take the Polish women away [94]


Of course, everybody around you are dumb and ignorant, only you know 'the secret'. Just like the people you cast your vote for.


Well, you are helpless, aren't you ? So you learn from the best ? Are there the politicians you vote for ? PiS ? LPR ? Samoobrona ? If you can't go 'ad rem' you go 'ad personam', don't you ? If you didn't offend me like that, I would discuss with you and told you about my motives. But everything I can write to you is F***K OFF.


I'm the ONLY person who will decide what to do with my life. What to hell do you know about me ? NOTHING. I'm not going to explain myself to you. So F***K OFF.

I must admit, that I can't understand what's your point here, M. Would you please be so kind to explain me what part of my post indicates that I can't take any criticism (or take it personally) and am a macho (me ??? macho ???) :( ???

Well, personally I don't mind these trees... Maybe it's because I'm not an 'amateur rally driver' (no offence, Fisz :) )

Love / I'm upset - you encourage foreigners to take the Polish women away [94]


So what ? Even if so many of them married foreigners, that's their choice, not yours. You don't OWE them. For me you just seem as a narrow-minded paranoid, who thinks that he DESERVES things just because he's Polish. I'm single as well, but I don't think that i deserve anything just because I am what I am. Go and get a life.

It's not a SMALL thing, especially if you're a driver :/ Polish roads are just terrible.

It's because we live in caverns, eat raw meat, and above all, we in Poland don't have TV receivers :)


Is that a problem for you that she's not passive, malleable and desn't want to do anything you say ?


Why are you offending polish men ? Not all of them drink too much. In fact, after I came to the UK, I find out that they don't drink more at all than local people.

I understand you miranda. Our sick to bone pension system is one of the reasons why I left Poland. I don't want to be paid scraps when I retire.

I wonder why nobody from the Polish ppl gathered here hasn't mentioned ZUS yet... It's DEFINITELY one of the worst things in Poland... This Moloch consumes half of your salaries for your 'pension', but in fact that money goes to total waste (i.e. feeding an army of rude biurwas and raising up more and more marble office buildings). And none of the governements elected after '89 has shown enough balls to reform that leech that bleeds our nation of its hard earned wonga and is one of the major factors that supresses development in Poland.

My pal was a quite long time in Spain, and told me that if a Spaniard wants to isult a Catalonian, they call them a 'Polish'.

It depends on part of Poland where you live in. I come from a village in South-West, and we have full recycling service in that matter (plastics, paper, scrap metal, glass).

Prices of CDs are f*n high - I'm asking, why the hell an album can cost £5 in the UK, and the same CD is ZLP60 in Poland (to make things worse, you don't see many promotions) :( ???

Probably exhaust gases from town buses, there is developed municipal communication in larger Polish towns (quality of it is another question, though).

UK, Ireland / Poles in GB: Why did you go - for money or something else? [53]


Goddamn good point. I think that here in the UK I just can make a hole in my Polish diploma and hang it on the wall (only because I wouldn't be able to use it as toilet paper :( ).

UK, Ireland / Poles in GB: Why did you go - for money or something else? [53]


Answering the question is one thing and staying there is another.
I moved to the UK because of not seeing any perspectives in Poland. You may say I'm here for money, but I'll say I'm here for (more) normal living. I don't think however that I'll stay here for my lifetime. It isn't definitely the best place in the world.

Good sides ? OK
1. My house at the river;
2. Town 20 mins away by car;
3. See above posts.

Disadvantages:
1. Unemployment;
2. Poor quality of politics, that's discouraging people from staying in their country and changing it.

I don't remember the names, its the series in which the 'Servant' character acts as a narrator and talks straight to the camera.

Okay, I can tell you in secret, that I watch 'Up Pompeii' sometimes... Sight of Britons running about with those hides on is just hilarious :)
