News / Poland..wake up to a multicultural world [1059]


I'm Polish and I don't know any Polish people who are racist against Asians. I do like Asians and have absolutely nothing against them. There are many Asian tourist in Poland (for example in Krakow) and I have never seen any racist behaviour towards them.

I have Asian neighbours in Poland, and they just live between us like every other person here, their kids have Polish friends etc. Nothing unusual. I think that you have nothing to worry about, at least in big cities (I just don't have any experience with Polish countryside and its attitude towards foreigners)

Wildrover - thank you for your observations. It's so nice to hear something positive about Poland from a foreigner.

Well, Polish people here are in a "productive age", that goes without saying :) Have you seen how many UK-born women on PF write about being pregnant with a Polish man without having solid relationship with them ? Not much thinking seems to be involved...

A story old as time itself...

Love / Polish men vs German men: Who is hotter? [513]

Polish model Jarek Pietka, boyish (well, 19 years old, so it's good to be boyish at this age), not really my type, but quite typical Polish face. Cute one.

UK, Ireland / Poles claim UK benefits after working only one year instead of going home [156]

Mister H - I said that we don't breed like rabbits and are quite friendly and eager to know other people. You said: "for every one of you there are many others with totally different agendas" What do you mean?

It means to me that for each (normal) person there are many others with different descriptions. I'm asking "such as?". Could you be so kind, and answer my question?

As for me and as for now your statement is contemptuous.
With regard to this statistic, it seems that for each 1 claimant there are 4,5 people who had never claimed a penny, right?

I was asking out of curiosity, your answer is of no help :)

Love / Polish men vs German men: Who is hotter? [513]

Karl Urban, he's from New Zealand, right?


His father is German but what about his mother?

Love / Polish men vs German men: Who is hotter? [513]

Karl Urban... HOT HOT HOT. He is from New Zealand. 1/2 German?

UK, Ireland / Poles claim UK benefits after working only one year instead of going home [156]


Oh really? Such as?

As I said before: do you know how many Poles claims benefits in comparison to those who don't? Could you please enlighten me about this statistic?

May I ask what are you doing on this forum? You seem hostile to Poles. Is it the reason?

UK, Ireland / Poles claim UK benefits after working only one year instead of going home [156]

Is "eager to know other cultures and people" synonymous with staying in the UK forever? :)

UK, Ireland / Poles claim UK benefits after working only one year instead of going home [156]


That's exactly what I'm talking about. We are young, healthy, educated and able to work. We don't breed like rabbits and we are quite friendly and eager to know other cultures and people. What more can you expect from immigrants? Fluent English? This will soon become the norm. I'm not talking about opening the borders on purpose, because it was not up to me to decide to do this.

UK, Ireland / Poles claim UK benefits after working only one year instead of going home [156]

I wonder how many Poles claims benefits in comparition to those who don't. How many Poles are (or was) in the UK and how many of them claimed benefits? Any statistics?

Not to mention that Poles probably don't have 4 / 5 kids each... I don't think the Poles are your real problem.

UK, Ireland / Poles claim UK benefits after working only one year instead of going home [156]


But of course! Immigration has many faces. I socialize with well-educated Polish people and there are many of them here, simply Daily Mail don't write articles about them... I can understand that you are angry with benefit thieves. The same is in Poland: people (in general) don't like to pay taxes for lazybones and swindlers. Our parents have been paying taxes their whole lives and, (thank god), they don't even need a doctor their whole lives. If my mum has a cold she calls private doctor to pay her a visit etc. The only exception was probably my birth, lol, as I was born in a local hospital. So what? Should she moan about paying for some lazybones who, for example, draws pensions they are not entitled to? It's the way society is built, right? I really think that the majority of Poles came here to work and earn money, not to draw benefits. Now, think about it this way: my boyfriend works, pays taxes and lives here and he has never claimed a penny neither has he used public services, that's to say he is paying for his compatriot who temporarily need some help, right? And he is happy to do that, because "No man is an island, entire of itself"

I'm not working here dear ShelleyS :) I have a family business in Poland and right now, I'm spending money earned in Poland in the UK. I came here to be with my boyfriend who is working on contract as a software programmer. And NO - he didn't come here because he couldn't find proper work in Poland. He came here to polish his English and to take part in an interesting project. We both have master degree and our families are quite well off so we don't send any money to Poland. I think we make considerable contibution to your economy (in cash, taxes and skills) instead. We're not claiming any benefits in the UK, we are not beggars. I have my proud, I wouldn't claim benefits even if I could. I'd rather work my ass off than do so. I have many Polish friends working here in the UK and every one of them pay taxes and have a decent job (IT sector). Do you really think every Polish person here sweep streets??? Hmmm, NO they don't ! They pay taxes, spend money here etc. Sounds better?

UK, Ireland / Poles claim UK benefits after working only one year instead of going home [156]


I don't think so. I'm actually spending money shopping here (my own POLISH money), my boyfriend pays taxes here, we don't use our rights to take benefits even if we are entitled to. We are both young and heathy and if we catch a cold we buy aspirin in Tesco, lol, so we don't consume your public services AT ALL. Most Poles here are healthy, young and hard-working, that's why they came here: TO WORK not to claim benefits !!! And that probably goes for the majority of us. You should be happy about our presence in UK, we are actually fighting your recession.
