Life / Day-to-day Polish Customs [20]


Yeah G...weres your manners.......suppose its just pass the bottle around at your place, use your cardigan sleeve to wipe the top of it...I despair!!

Life / How much do you HATE POLISH PEOPLE and POLAND [1260]

Gee....this is a bulls**t thread.......and gone just a little off thread......IMHO...:)

Most people have no concept of what real hate is......and if they do its a very very dark moment in their lives.

I sincerely no one here ever, ever has to experience this aspect of living to its fullest extent!

UK, Ireland / Polish teenager murdered after arriving in UK [117]


So true......but trying to give some Polish members a flavour of what the mix is in the UK, ie someone noted the less than salubrious area they had moved to...always a likelihood of more crime, more risk; plus the hugely diverse and difficult to understand make up of UK society.

But perhaps the perception of migrants is that UK is a safe, well behaved society......not very true, the rates of criminality is unbelievable.......and in certain areas more dangerous than downtown Baghdad!!

700 plus murders in UK pa.....tiny compared to USA 18000...but the rates of assault/attack are much higher in the UK....cos you might just get shot in the USA!

UK, Ireland / Polish teenager murdered after arriving in UK [117]

Sad to note guys, it always goes to my heart when the innocents of the world are treated so brutally, and a young girl whose family went to try and make their lives better is so savagely murdered.

I hope the board doesn't mind me posting this link....

somebodygotmurdered.blogspot.com/2007/10/jane-doe.html

Odds are, judging from the name that the murderer was of Irish origin.

I do hope her family can recover, but I suspect their lives will be blighted by this memory for an eternity.......somethings you can never put behind you.

Unfortunately I note other murders of Polish(?) people.

Again apols if this annoys or upsets board members.....

UK, Ireland / WHAT AREAS IN LONDON ARE POPULAR FOR POLISH PEOPLE TO LIVE IN? [33]

Yes, there are several Polish cafes and shops in Acton, plus Hounslow seems to have a big presence!

Life / Why are the Poles picked on there is no reason to do this to them [108]


Michal...I agree, my interactions both in Poland and here in Ireland have virtually all been positive...and the vast majority are with young people; sometimes the older people get a bit frustrated, feel a bit left out and maybe don't do themselves justice as they can't quite adapt to new situations as their younger people...especially in the area of speaking, understanding English.

The 18-25 yr old Polish group who have come to work in UK/Ireland have done very well and can be proud of themselves and the culture they represent.

However as in ALL countries there will be 5% of the population who behave in less than favourable ways!!!

News / Third World War and the role of Poland [82]


I think you'll find the USA sold everyone out to the higgest bidder...ie the bled the UK dry of every last penny...their isolationsim green lighted the facists and communists in Europe to wage war, destroy and ruin whole countries and races........

Love your sense of humour.....lack of realism.......or both....:)

UK, Ireland / Britain - Land of Milk and honey.. or basis for Lord of the Flies? [17]


Yes, but that was a second incident of social and criminal abuse of a person with a disability, I sometimes wonder if things in a number of "primitve" parts of the UK are regressing rather than progressing!...:(

Then again, its the same the world over!

W, have you had a sex change....cuda swore the last time I saw you, you weren't wearing a fancy hat!!

I find it very distressing that their are areas of UK where the laws of the jungle still apply...:(

Life / New Car prices and the Import Taxation in Poland [5]

I seem to remember when looking at a car maagzine last year in Poland that premium western marques were slightly more expensive in Poland than say the UK !!!

So in real terms in you see a local driving a BMW costing £20k in the UK its the near equivalent of a £80k car in the UK!!

Love / Is it really possible for a Polish man to be just friends with a woman? [32]

Nah...unless its clearly spelt out to them.....1 metre high neon lights........sorta thing, then men (assuming they have a smidgeon of testosterone) will always make a play for a girl.....friendship/sexual relationship very interchangeable and confusing for some.........!!!

So rather than be mean...be honest, and eventually your changing group of male friends will be somewhat eunuch like towards you........

Result!

UK, Ireland / Where to find Polish people in London? [55]

Love / What do men want with Polish Girls huh??? [72]


Kiwi boy...have you seen German

women...........enuf said!!

History / Memories of the Polish communist era [115]

Disagree...........of course they complain....the Polish nation has been sh!t on for a long, long time, not due to the people themselves, but their kings, nobility, shafting the 95% underclass, and then poor leadership, then the Germans and until a while ago...the Russians.

Its not so much a history as a running tragedy!

But they now have a chance, to better themsleves, their attitudes, their econmy and their standing in the world.......why not take that chance.

PS This has been debated endlessly on other threads.

Love / I really like this Polish guy....what to do next?? [76]

PS Isn't that a contradictory statement.....

Life / Homosexuals in Poland / Hands off (PETITION) [797]


But invariably its a negative stereotype......isn't it?

Never ever do you see one that emphasizes the pleasing, better, positive aspects of any group........

PS In the UK 8/9 out 10 children who are harmed/murdered during any given year, has that harm inflicted on them by family/friends of family........the usual hysteria still rules on the board.....:(

UK, Ireland / Why do Poles come to England? [514]


Especially as they can get paid for it, Polish people this year, Bulgarians next, then Romanians....wots new?

The Irish did it for 200 years.....its all on one big cycle......sometimes we were gratefully recieved, sometimes disgracefully......I would like to think as Polish people keep coming to both islands that they get what they want and are well treated....if you get shafted on an individual basis......don't take it personally......!!
