UK, Ireland / Polish Degrees for a social care work in the UK [5]

short answer, NO. :( most eastern degrees are not recognised

Please check with EU websites or your university. BECAUSE all EU institutions have no GRADED degrees in each country. In ireland an 'ordinary degree' is level 8 i think, honours fegree is level 9 i think. something like that.

Also, The degree you have will help you get 'exemptions' in Irish & UK colleges to get a 'shorter' time to get their versions

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]

This is a terrible thread!

what have ze germans ever done to you?

I have not met a german I do not like! And do not paint them all for the past

We are all Europeans now and as such - like!

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]


Hitler took advantage of a people that were down and out - you can get a hungary man do to almost anything for food! Hitler manipulated, the nazis manipulated to accomplish their MINORITY views. They told the german people what they wanted to hear and abused their trust.

There is no excuse for what the nazi's did - it was a crime. Do not paint all the german people for such. I wonder to accuse ALL americans for dropping the atomic bomb?

Move on mate! tackle real issue's like, rape, peodophila, vandalism, hooliganism! crimes of TODAY rather than this bullsh1t thread

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]


Thats could be said of your brother frank - put in a situation outside of normal control! just watch 'lost' :)

Its part of why EU is about unity - so that it cannot happen again

'lest we forget'

PAX


True LOL - im just adding to his POLL, giving my honest opinion

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]


Id retort and call your view pessimistic.
And your quote is out of context. Russia did not say lithuania and Poland is Russia's enemy in WWII, Armageddon context at all! and Russia is not about to 'MARCH ON WARSAW!' so id add sensationalism to your post :)

the EU is an ideal! and its 50 years since! and it has achieved more than 5,000 years! or any empire or dictator could do! thats due to the power of democracy (with all its flawS)

Dont think the EU is going to crumble overnight frank

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]


your just trying to provoke it now aren't you! :)

There are english, irish, welsh and scottish people. Some unified under the term 'Great britain' with ENgland as its mainland.

However, we are all European (geographically & politically)

News / Poland over the next 10 years? [79]

my two cents,

Ireland did not have anybody come home for hundreds of years! It was not until the start of the 1990'd that they did! p1990 population 2.5m, today itss near 4.6m (including poles etc etc)

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]


a nazi under a different name would smell as sweet

...that basically means, yes. Germany made its reparations (served its time for the crime) and MOVED on ages ago! germany was one of thr founding nations of the EU poland is now apart of!

and is funding (with the rest of the EU) polish infrastructe, CAP, et al!!!

telling germans to get out is ludicris!!!

...and racist

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]


that IS your only differnce! are americans who are not native, not americans because they cant speak cherokee or hudson?

I am native irish, and i speak little irish - doesn't make me less irish at all.

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]

yea, polish who russian or german - do you hate them for it?

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]

Both poor examples frank!

both were empires, run by masters and slaves

now your not a stupid person so i dont need to point out the differences between them and the EU.

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]

Sledz, get here quick! the standard here is dropping fast! :P

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]

hehe Frank I dont think we agree on this

Rome and thre third reich didnt fall over night either :P Im saying they failed due to oppressive regimes. The EU is not.

The euro, i share your sentiments also that it may last. And Currencies you gave as examples, eh, you didnt mention any in particular or am i blind? what are these 3 other european currencies that have failed before?

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]

Sledz, please dont drink harp...it is made from the river liffey :)

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]


hehehe well said

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]


never said they didnt :) just said the EU was a force for good (in so many words LOL)

Be hopeful mo chairde

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]

great to hear :)

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]

yea, Poland is such a great country and Highly undervalued i think

It will become a huge economic entity within the EU in a decade!

I wager a pint of WarkA or Piast, your choice!

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]

ahhhhhhhhhh (screaming) Frank! we are doomed to disagree :)

Evolution, is not cyclical!

Education, is not cyclical!

the lettter E, is not cyclical!

Lol, sorry about the last point but the other two stand :)

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]


seconded!

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]


your excused Franck :) (just playing)

There is no tangent I can see. But i do see you making posts with claims you could not back up.
for someone to succedd someone must fail...

so magellian succedded in circumnavigating the globed - who lost out there?
the wright brothers invented modern day flighht - who lost out there?
the EU was formed - who lost out there?

it is the Failures of the past that pave the way for the successes i would say Frank. It is in learning from our mistakes that we achieve our greatest aspirations!

edison was interviewed about the '2,000 times he failed in trying to invent the lightbulb'

he replied, i did not fail, i just discovered 2,000 ways how not to make a lightbulb :) (he learnt from his past errors and moved on! like the EU and Evolution are the result of learning from the past!

UK, Ireland / Great Britain - which countries does it include? [95]


YES! :) and the EU is Ireland, GB, Denmark, France, Germany, Poland, Spain, Belgium, Holland, Italy, Portugal, Sweden, Finaland, Estonia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Romania, Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia...and so on :P

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]


Is see we are not thinking along the same plane


THATS MY FRIGGIN POINT!! the EU is the realisation of the past instances and from learning from it!!! the EU is a far more flexible body that the empires of old and is ABLE to adapt and change as required through consititutional changes! yeeecsh


Dude, I can tell your not into science, evolution is not cyclical. it does not come full circle. It is a cycle?

Definition of evolutions include

# development: a process in which something passes by degrees to a different stage (especially a more advanced or mature stage); "the development of his ideas took many years"; "the evolution of Greek civilization"; "the slow development of her skill as a writer"

# (biology) the sequence of events involved in the evolutionary development of a species or taxonomic group of organisms


your funny, ill give you that :)

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]


I know i did, im not saying you did,

you said its cyclical when clearly it is not - even by definiton (see my post or google the darn definition!)

as to understatment, i dont know you well enough yet mate but i dont doubt you :)

as to political entities, yes i agree there are element *cough BNP *cough* but that is some people who cannot learn form history and/or move on to higher tolerances and see the bigger pic.

peace out

Polonia / Germans: Do Poles like them or dislike them? [217]

awww peace, gotta love it.

oh wait.. i must be cyclical! WAR ON FRANK!!! !!!!!!! :)

just playing, i know what you mean - i hope you can just see what i mean? (not the evolution part - that is self evident DEF)

but that if we learn from the past and from our 2,000 ways how not to make a lightbulb then one day, we too, shall invent our political lightbulb!
