UK, Ireland / What is good about being in the UK? [140]

most of these welfare allowances and other state benefits are making people lazy .it makes me sick, some Poles most probably losers who want to live in ghettos would go for it, no any person with self respect and a future in Poland would even consider to live on benefits alienated from hostile local community in environment where in every media you can watch, hear or read news giving bad names about Poles or better ( to **** off us probably )

- Eastern Europeans - but rarely taking responsibility for words and too lazy to publicize valid stats and avoid like a focker disease subjects about other non white people

What is good being in the UK? is this question asked to Poles who live in UK, Brits from UK or British living in Poland and missing tacos and other stuff?

why my post was sent to off topic and you keep other meaningless posts about crisps?
crisps culture heh?

Why don't you write what you "like" about the UK instead of writing what you hate?
It might stop your post going to off-topic

thats probably explanation why a British born Pole could not stand that pressure to be a Pole and British in one time and punched Leona Levis right in the face to show how not happy he is.

The best of it is we have a wave of polish sociologists in UK and IRL who are trying to sort the problem out and no any of them seem to even put a simple sentence on these forums.

and.....there are virtually no Poles from UK/IRL here
any clues why?

They ( prices ) are taken from random polish website, but to be honest I remember when I was in PL a couple weeks ago I paid over 4,00 PLN ( or I honestly can not remember but was something close to 4.00 ) for a litre of diesel

History / Why are we called Poles instead of Polans? [29]

interesting fact is that description of Welsh people came from germanic/nordic languages and means deaf just like invaiding germanic/nordic tribes called Slavic people in Kiev area ( west Ukraine ) - walachs or like we ( Poles) call Germans - Niemce - means deaf.

News / Russia and Poland possibility of the alliance [75]

very interesting point Miru trying impose on minds of people, certainly the same as Gazeta Wyborcza do for almost 20 years to weak an average Grey bloke in Poland.

Saying that we have military support from Israel which is ********, spreading a lot of lies just like GROM - MOSSAD things, depreciation our European supporters and USA.

Andall this comes from a Polish Jew. Hmm
To sum this up
This is the way how a Polish Jews installed by Soviets after '45 on our governmental posts thanks us Poles for let them have a normal life on our soil for almost a half of millennium . What can we expect from them?

I hope that a pious ones, left Poland during '46-'50 for Israel, USA, Canada, South Africa, AU, NZ and the only ones who stay in a the traitors, soviet installed puppets.

There would be no regret for them in Poland.

UK, Ireland / What is in Poland that England doesn't have? [142]

I am talking about a real culture, Lubomirski's, Zamoyski's, Poniatowski's, Czartoryski's and so on, not renting horses for a ride.

There are more people riding horses in England than in Poland.

England hasn't been touched by commies. We lost our upper class after '39 butchered by USSR so this culture is lost in Poland

guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2009/apr/13/poland-work-and-careers

read the comments, there are very appealing

ex
"There were few jobs for them to get not involving ferocious competition and the sense of frustration that Poles in their 20s felt led to a desire to migrate that was emotional: the idea of "**** Poland, this country is hopeless and will never get better".

Add that to the fact that the Polish job market in the provinces is dominated by nepotism and favouritism, then many concluded that Britain just must be a land of milk and honey. Not a bleak and deracinated site for warehouses and cheap temporary labour.

Basically, a lot of migrants were motivated by neurotic impulses. Britainwas seen as 'Cool' with a 'vibrant youth culture'. British Council propaganda had skillfully manipulated these perceptions in the run up to Poland's entry into the EU.

The sexual motive was there too .Above average looking girls could get a nice English gentleman as a husband and enhance their status. Trading their looks and comparing the "fat" English women unfavourably.

The scale of the migration amogst young people was not only economics: like all people, Poles were motivated by subconscious craving about what a better life would be that could be classified as illusions in a land where many still buy into a kitschy Catholicism that outsiders find incomprehensible."
