UK, Ireland / Poles in UK/Ireland and English speaking Polish media, do they exist? [8]

Do Polish people in UK and Ireland use English enough to communicate freely on internet?
Since 2004 a lot of Poles flew shores, from that time not to many English speaking forums and websites have been created. Even PF was made by American Pole long time before.

Ive been browsing passionately whole net and it seems we are not exist, our voice is not visible.
There are two internet based radio stations from London, but most what they produce is a pile of songs playing one by one like spreading bullets form machine gun, not too much talk in Polish and English. No English speaking forums about Poles and there are millions of us here. Only few blogs made by poles in English, you can count them on the fingers of one hand I suppose. 5 years in English speaking counties and nearly no sound of us. Are we don't need to communicate with local population, create mutual bonds, understanding each other or are we lack on entrepreneur skills?

Just wonder what you think.

Life / Consider going back to Poland? [90]

Consider this, people here are bunch of completely different people with their own needs and preferences. It seems nobody give a damn about your feelings. Most of them think - I am not interested. Its sad but it is true.

Life / Consider going back to Poland? [90]

He was living in Poland peacefully, met some people, not too many of them showed him bad attitude towards him, no any bad press about ex-pats

You are in UK, constantly hear crap about EE immigrants, steeling jobs, abusing benefit system, flood and so on.
Do you see the reason why he have different attitude towards host country than you?

Life / Consider going back to Poland? [90]

I have to say that my adopted country treated me not too well, maybe because this is NI ( probably not the best choice for foreigners ), dont really know. Finally after 5 years I am heading home in Dec, so wish me luck.

I ve been doing some research here as a socio logist freak, even decided to be arrested (for fun/experience ) to see how they treat foreigners/EE migrants. You couldn't believe what happened to me.

USA, Canada / Teeth bracelet, (dental brace) the Polish way to gain success in USA? [11]

I ve noticed that a lot of Poles over there praise good teeth, even blue collar workers spend a lot of money on bracelets for their daughters. Why? Not too much cash for good private education, so the best idea is invest on good healthy looking a' la potential future wife type women, like good marriage material?

Any thoughts?

It looks like some of you guys will lose money in Poland. This thread is so hot nearly as one about Jews. You wish not to but you can't change reality, definetly not without magic wand. Prices will drop down.

It's like the Titanic's going down and the band is still playing but you can't admit that.

I am pretty sure you can sacrifice people ( invest invest invest buy buy buy ) to prevent losing your own money

UK, Ireland / Its strange that there arent many Poles who live in the UK on this Forum [102]

enkidu
why 1 million Poles in UK/Ireland, after 5 years here in particular have no English speaking Polish forums or websites or not comment here, even 0.1 % of Polish population in these countries?

Do we behave like medieval Jews in European cities? Ghetto mentality comes to my mind

you guys ( not all Poles ) behave like medieval Jews, come to host country and dry its resources, no integration, no English, stick to your own just like those Jews. Shame on you.

To this guy enkidu, you have no right to put an avatar with Polish nobility coat of arms cos you don't think like one.
