if that was true why 3 million poles in the uk? poles come here 4 a better life. women are doing jobs in poland men should be doing like fireman,factory worker. poland cant build stadium for european championships football becuase theres no polish workers there all here.

the english spelling is on purpose wrong.thats how british ppl type.shortern words and saving time.its easy compared to england to get a degree in poland.people are coming to england because why earn 5zl per hour when your can earn 10 times that in england. england has a better education system and better hospitals and the main reason poles come here is becuase the polish government are very selfish and dnt care about poles.

thats easy.what is typical wage in poland per hour. like bar staff or cleaner or factory worker.alot of the polish who come here have specialist skills like plumber and plasterer and decorator, there like on at least 600/1000 zl a day.doctor and teachers on more.ive been in polish hospitals in torun,warsaw,poznan lodz and more.and if the rest of polands hospitals are like this then o dear. english hospitals are not perfect by any means.since world war 2 poland has always had a close connection with england.my babcia like hundreds of thousands of poles came to england then.nows theres more.

the point im making is from a young age the poles in poland are taught english in school. i wouldnt dream of moving to poland if i couldnt speak a word of polish. in england polish is widly spoken and taught.polish food and drinks are widly sold here. theres polish signs everywhere so polish people can understand more like in banks and shops. polish is offered in english schools as well as german and french. i took my polish gcse at english school. english is taught in every school in poland and has been for many years.i know how well english is taught in poland as half my family were taught english in schools in poland.if you come to england lookin 4 a job that invloves interacting with the public ya need at least the basics.i mean my babcia has lived in england over 50 yrs and still cant speak perfect english which is the case for most of my babcia's generation who moved to england.9 out of 10 poles when asked where they'd like to live reply not in poland.i love poland myself.i go to poland 7/10 times a year.1000's of more poles enter the uk every week to live and work.settle down.put there kids in english schools. in my opinion the poles come here becuase the british government look after them more then in poland. i know polish polotics and its very corrupt.richer get richer and poorer get poorer.the poles get jobs here almost instantly. simple reason is the poles have a great reputation for hard work.

alot of my british polish friends like me who can speak it perfectly but also have problems reading and writing in polish. polish is deffo not type as you hear them. if you spin it round alot of poles who speak well in english in speech are just awful at spelling.it works both ways.the way polish is taught in england is all wrong and the way english is taught in poland is all wrong hence why theres hardly any perfectly english speakin poles or hardly any perfectly speakin polish brits.
