UK, Ireland / Poles flee N. Irleand homes after World Cup riots [70]

Poles flee N. Irleand homes after World Cup riots.
Jeez, no surprise there, I live in Poland.
And if ever my home was attacked, I would flee.
People with families in foreign countries attacked at home, would leave, of course.

Ur home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what great news!!!!!!!!!

Law / Banking in Poland, as a foreigner. [26]

To open an account you need to have proof that you are currently living in Poland, i.e rental contract with your name on it. Without that it will be almost impossible to open an account, unless you have a large amount of cash ready to deposit, and even with that, you may still find it difficult to open an account. The banks will not open account for people who are not in Poland, due to the economic crisis ect. 5 years ago it was possible, maybe try my bank Deutsche bank, as they seem quite willing, but i needed proof of address before.

History / "Shafting the Poles" [44]

Why would Poland want to be begging for the scraps from others anyway?
Nic Nowego then?

History / "Shafting the Poles" [44]

When it comes down to it, Poland shouldn't beg for anything, at the end of the day it hose the way it wanted to go. By asking for compensation it sounds more like Poland went into the war as mercenaries.

History / "Shafting the Poles" [44]

Would you like Brits to have exclusive rights to begging?

Was i talking about the UK.

The war cost Poland more than the cost of the repairs of the equipment they used. Poland made no money on this, hence they were not mercenaries.

But that article still makes the fact that Poland gained nothing from it the main point. Turkey got this, Egypt that, and what about us???

About 7 years ago, u were better of not working and claiming benefits, than working for the min wage. It was ****** up system then. work and u will be in debt, poor and in alot of financial trouble. Dont work and you had less problems. Go figure.

UK, Ireland / Polish Spitfire shoots down BNP [63]

I cant speak about now, as i haven't been home in 5 years.
For example, i know some girl who is 26. She has 7 children, she has never worked, and her husband is in jail for murder. She gets over 1000 pounds a week fro the state, plus has her bills paid for, and lives in a 5 bedroom house in a very posh area. Now ask yourself this, why the hell would she want to work?

she is telling big lies or she is cheating

yes she is, i dont like the girl, dont get me wrong, im only using her as example. And yes that also include bills for house.

In Glasgow, with the whole problem of unemployment, its a way of life claiming benefits, you can cheat the system so easily.

News / Polish priest publishes sex guide [97]

I find it amusing that someone who has no knowledge of the topic, can preach to others about what they should do, funniest thing I've heard in ages.

Geeez the CC need to get a grip......;)
