Life / Will Poland become like the UK ? [93]

I still visit theese places frequently. I've taken a few of my Polish friends to places like Norfolk and they are truely shocked at how different it is from London. No crime, no tension, no muslims, just friendly english people all sharing the same culture, values and way of life.

I agree with what you say,but also feel there are many areas of Britain with a successful multicultural mix.These tend to be places with wealthier(Chinese/Indian)communities alongside the English and Europeans but with no Pakistanis/Somalis or British born black pretend gangsta thug idiots.

I actually prefer mixing with open minded or educated Nigerians/Chinese/Indians etc than with English chavs or dole scrounging moaners.Thanks to a number of lowlife criminal scumbag immigrants its easy to forget that there are many more decent ones who are really not so different from the traditional English people you mention.

UK, Ireland / 713,000 new foreign workers in UK [44]

We have no way of knowing how many immigrants we have in the UK, but I would guestimate - about a 1/4 of the population of the UK are immigrants.

No Amathyst,that is way out- 25% would mean around 15 million people out of 60 million are immigrants which is incorrect.In London the figure is high-around 40% and in some cities it is 15%.It seems more in cities because the migrants are mostly working whereas the older retired English are in the city suburbs.In many towns the figure is 1-5% and in most villages and many towns in northern England etc there are no immigrants.I would guess that the actual figure is around 12% of people in Britain are immigrants.

No offence but where in gods name did you get 60m from - those figures are older than Noahs arck! Oh and if you knew the figures of people (English) who are leaving England and the amount of English (Im not counting British) that having children, then you might want to think abou those figures again, just think of all those british born babies!

The figure of 60 million for the UK can be found by checking 2007 statistics for the UK population.I'm not sure what the rest of your statement is supposed to mean.Are you saying English people are having lots of babies or no babies? As I said before there are parts of the UK where immigrants are still rare.

Hmm, that to me doesnt suggest you live there, it said "I visit Manchester city center most weekends" meaning - I dont live in Manchester...since I travel in to M/c every day.. I think I have a better idea how many foreigners there are in my city.

As I mentioned before you will find more immigrants in a city centre than in the city as a whole.The city centre is where most of them work so it might seem that the foreign population for the entire city is higher than it actually is.

Sorry Amathyst but this sounds dubious.'A friend' claims that 2000 African refugees have been resettled by the council - I don't believe it because it sounds like the sort of rumour and exaggeration that turns out to be untrue (send a link to genuine reports).Why can English people not afford to have children but immigrants can? I was born in England,have always had modestly paid jobs and I have 3 children.

Where I work most of the security guards are African immigrants who work 60-70 hours each week,pay taxes etc and so do their wives.Yes,there are lowlifes (from Pakistan/Somalia)also but the majority are hard working and mostly law abiding.The only scroungers I see around here are the lazy Brits who moan about the Polish taking all the jobs (which they refuse to do).These same British people want fancy things without working hard for them.

There are also hard working Brits who 'can't afford' to have children because it means sacrificing their lifestyle (foreign holidays etc).Anyone can do it.

UK, Ireland / Foreigners: Please don't buy the English Land! [83]

It is even worse in Poland right now. Your people problems with buying flat do not mean that you have to rape my country and ruin its people. Less property in Poland for polish people, more polish people in UK. Yes it works exactly like that.

Well Ola I know quite a few Polish people working hard here in the UK and then going back home to buy flats/houses with the money they earned in Britain.These people are also responsible for pushing up prices in Poland-just as the many people coming to Britain(and greedy UK landlords) are partly responsible for pushing up UK house prices.

UK, Ireland / Why do Poles come to England? [514]

The polish just come because they don't like their countrym they believe that any country is better than their's, and because in England they think they can make alot of mkoney

England has its bad side(like everywhere) but for many reasons it is still among the best (perhaps it is the best) countries to live and work- I don't have time to make a long list here of its many good points.

The Polish people are welcome to come and work here - I prefer them to lazy British scroungers who our government allows to sit on their chav arses getting fat. At least the Polish are not afraid to work.

re: England has its bad side

- The only bad side I can see is the cost of living, which is often very high.

- The English - the real English, that is - are the most decent people I've ever met. (I also think similarly about the Irish.)

I agree although apart from the cost of housing(rent/house prices) and public transport many other living costs are very cheap compared to the past (clothing,food,electrical goods).

Poles have ALWAyS went places for search of a better life. We are EVERYWHERE from New Zealand to Alaska, Argentina, Australia, USA...you name it, we're there. So, what's a little trip to UK. Nothing, especially that it was made so easy in the EU.

More Poles have come to the UK in a short space of time because it is one of the best places in the world to live and work.By comparison only a handful exist in most of those other countries you mention.

Poles living abroad excluding British Isles :

America 9,000,000
Brazil 1,500,000
Canada 800,000
Argentina 500,000
Belarus 400,000
Germany 300,000
Lithuania 250,000
Australia 150,000
Ukraine 144,000
Russian 77,000
Latvia 57,000
Czech Republic 50,000
Italy 50,000
Kazakhstan 47,000
Spain 44,000
Holland 39,000
Austria 20,000
Iceland 7,000
Mexico 5,000
Turkey 5,000

From where did you get these statistics? I think you will find that most of these people are not even Polish-perhaps their grandparents etc were (like AJ Graham said).

The reason so many Poles have come to the UK is because it is one of the best places in the world to live and work.

UK, Ireland / Why do Poles come to England? [514]

I have already shown my annoyance at the amount of migrants we allow into or on the British Isles, for our size we take in many many many more than we are required to by the EU. Its about time the Government took note on what people are saying and begin to get tough on the immigration rules, who they let in etc.

Lastly i would like to reiterate my point from earlier and ask other people's opinions on 'illegal' immigrants, whether your from the US, UK, Poland or wherever, here in the UK i don't feel we do enough to kick these people out, in fact we do the opposite, while there sitting in the asylum housing their demanding HD TV's, Queens size beds and other top living facilities, while we have BRITISH people LEGALLY in the country on the streets, it just seems wrong to me.

My own feeling is that there is such a thing as good migration and bad migration.If people are decent or educated or highly skilled and like Britain they are welcome to come here to the UK and do the jobs which suffer employee shortages (IT workers,doctors etc).I don't care where they come from.If illegal immigrants/asylum seekers commit crimes they should be imprisoned and then obviously deported.If legal migrants come here and don't repect the laws or hate Britain and the British they should just go back to where they came from.Unskilled migrants should come to Britain to do jobs only after the government has forced the lazy unskilled British scroungers to get off their backsides and work for their money instead of living off the taxes of both British and migrant workers.

I enjoy the atmosphere and contributions of migrants in successful multicultural parts of Britain.I like the fact I can go to a Polish shop,Indian shop,Carribean shop-even in some small towns and supermarkets sell food from all countries.I like the vibrancy of multicultural festivals - I can enjoy these things locally instead of travelling thousands of miles.

forget imprisoning them here and costing us money, kick them out straight away!!!

Their home countries would not imprison them for crimes committed in Britain.It would be better that they are punished first before being sent back.

Quoting: truebrit
the lazy unskilled British scroungers to get off their backsides

if you don't let the unskilled in these people will have to pull their weight and have no excuse not to get a job know that 'the migrants take the jobs' are no longer taking the jobs :)

3 years ago there were 1.5 million unskilled/semi skilled jobs available and no migrants to do them.Lazy scroungers prefered collecting their dole money rather than take those jobs.On that occasion the Poles etc came to the rescue.The govt needs to come down hard on British shirkers.

That's because Australia feels more British than what multicultural Britain is. Australians like to preserve their Anglo-Celtic heritage and culture, unlike those in the fatherland who would rather act like a bunch of Afro-American yanks with all the hip hop, ghettos, fast food and other shite. So it's not realy suprising that many young Englishmen would rather settle down in Oz.

Rubbish.The original Australians are the Aborigines and there are now many migrants from SE Asia.In time Australia will become multicultural like Britain.

UK, Ireland / Why do Poles come to England? [514]

You call yourself a trueBrit when you sound like the common unpatriotic self-hating liberal moron. No offence.

I am a true patriotic Brit - unlike your confused self.Learn some British history - why do you think there are so many "immigrants" in Britain? Could it be something to do with the fact that for 400 years Britain had the biggest empire the world has ever seen?

I love Britain - if you hate it so much go to your Australian paradise.

Real Estate / When is the law changing to allow foreigners to buy land in Poland? [32]

Born in the UK I have seen the streets become crowded, poluted, noise polution, nanny state, health and safety out of control, the food poisened, people getting fatter, social degradation, lack of repect, kids out of control, parents/teachers/police powerless, chavs rule, ladish behaviour fri/sat nite, crap schools, your child can't go out alone, or it will probably turn into a chav, crap health care, everything in shops a rip-off, noone can afford a house anymore, debts out of control, noone talks to their neighbours, everything is taxed, no more seasons (damp constant autumn) it's all about money- you earn lots but blow it on cost of living, east europeans come here for the money only, they work like dogs and live like dogs - eventually they go home because they get tired. That's not what life is about.

This is typical Brit whinging.You can find many negatives in every country to whinge about.Some of those above are not even accurate-of course children in many areas can still go out alone but parents are more fearful(partly because of the hysterical crime reporting these days).Everything is taxed in most decent countries-go to a country with low tax and see what sort of life it is for the average person.Health and safety has resulted in fewer accidental deaths than ever before and chavs are not as bad as the equivalents in the past (eg skinheads).Its true people are getting fatter-in every wealthier society.

No of course it's not the fault of the British people it's just the way the country is run. approx 70% of my friends here are immigrants from various countries and they all came here for the money. Not one of them is happy with their quality of life. It seems like the only way you can make lots of money here is to buy houses, do them up as cheaply as possible and sell them for profit - and even this is contributing to the coutries decline. Now they want to go to Poland to do the same. (phew back on topic)

I too know many immigrants and most are happy with life in the UK.Those who are unhappy either came here with unrealistic expectations or intend to just save money and are not interested in having a life here.You mention "make lots of money".Those who strive to "make lots of money" rather than enjoy life are usually the least happy of all.

News / English vs. Polish hostility [323]

yes i have thought long and hard, people applying for work/living in the uk would have to specify their field of work, therefore the government could hand pick the people they needed to fill positions. Everybody knows that general labour and customer service personnel are required. The whole point of my scheme is to make sure the right people are coming in, to do the right jobs where required therefore benefiting themselves and the UK overall.

As i said before i'm not the home secretary and i don't have the whole of the home office resources available to me, i am one guy of 22 with a few ideas :) However i like the debates and questions you throw at me it helps me develop my knowledge and my idea for a better UK all round (for the UK and Visitors to the UK)

I think you will find that the government now applies such stricter rules for migrants from outside the EU.The foreign criminals you refer to mostly came here several years ago or as asylum seekers/illegal immigrants rather than lawful immigrants(few lawful immigrants commit crimes).I agree that any asylum seeker/illegal immigrant who commits a crime should serve their sentence then be deported.

Give me a job then lol, I will take the low paid ones. I could reply to the last suggestion you had for me but then you would just accuse me of being negative so I won't bother.

With help like Working Tax Credits there is less reason than before to refuse a minimum wage job.If you are serious there are loads of jobs going begging in supermarkets etc.

UK, Ireland / Polish woman shot in London. [57]

We all know who is committing these gang gun murders-virtually all the killers and victims have been young black people.This poor young woman was just in the wrong place at the wrong time and caught in the crossfire.60 gun killings per year in a population of 61 million is not so high.

I know these 'trolls' make stupid statements just to provoke a response but....as everyone knows Britain survives and thrives on GOOD immigrants.The somalis and some pakistanis should keep out but others are welcome so long as they work,pay taxes and obey the law.Otherwise the NHS,businesses,transportation etc would collapse.Millions of Brits have left the UK over the past 100 years and swamped Australia,New Zealand,Canada,USA etc.They need to be replaced!

Indeed, Britain may soon face a novel immigration problem. As Poland's economy has improved this year, immigration has slowed, which economists say could cause labor shortages in British industries.

not at all - more women in the UK die from domestic violence than breast cancer

This figure is completely inaccurate.For the past few years around 120 women and 30 men have been killed by their partners each year in the UK.Unfortunately,deaths from breast cancer are in the thousands.

UK, Ireland / Polish teenager murdered after arriving in UK [117]

I hear about such agression from part of British people to Polish people.what about you?you can rarely find a message about British woman raped and murdered in Poland,so why you are behaving in such a brutal way???????a teenager raped and killed,other one raped and murdered,next one rape

Over the past 3 years over 1.5 million Polish people have spent time living and working in Britain.As far as I am aware 5 Polish women have been murdered during that time.One was killed by her Portugese boyfriend,one was killed by a paedophile in Scotland,one was killed unintentionally during a gunfight between black youths,one 14 year old girl was killed by a neighbour(now awaiting trial) and the 5th was horrifically killed by burning.These are all terrible crimes but they had nothing to do with the victims being Polish.

If 1.5 million British people came to Poland and lived in the poorer,rougher areas of Polish cities do you think none at all would suffer violence?

I agree that most of the Polish I meet are polite but I know that not all are because there are a small number that have come to the UK and also murdered people.

UK, Ireland / Polls for Poles in the UK [178]

This is kinda true. And admittedly, there were technical issues RAF faced, and the danger to RAF pilots was undoubtedly high. But so was it in other areas.
Warsaw was simply not worth the Western effort anymore, as it had already been given away to the USSR.

Churchill in particular wanted to send weapons/supplies to the Polish fighters.The soviet red army was just outside Warsaw and informed Britain and USA that any of their planes flying over would be shot down.

UK, Ireland / What will the Polish give the UK? [58]

Sorry, I don't understand this. Where's this £6 billion coming from? Am I going to see any of it? :)

Businesses and the government will benefit from this-not us.

Regarding your original question I think the legacy the Polish influx will leave will be food-but mostly among those British people who like trying all kinds of food.
