News / POLISH LITTLE GIRL SHOT DEAD BY AN ITALIAN [104]

I've got problems with your use of the expression 'East Europeans.

Well...in our county...2000 plus East Europeans....only 25 Czech/Slovaks....and maybe 100-200 Lithuainians/Latvians......so VAST majority are Poles.

It seems to me obsolete and coldwarrish.

Seems....really..?...or you perosnally don't like it....take it up with daffy.......:)...lol

So Puzzler....answer me a question....why do Italians not like Poles....or is it mutual?.........

News / POLISH LITTLE GIRL SHOT DEAD BY AN ITALIAN [104]

East Europeans have both been murdered and murdered people in Ireland.....I don't know the stats, but it is reported, though seem to be more the Lithuanians who are involved.

In the last few months, several Poles have died here, mostly accidental, one drown, 2/3 in Belfast in a house fire.

All new groups will be taken advantage of, and in certain areas/types of people will abuse them...not new....happens to all everywhere!

It happens in Belfast in particular.....racist capital of Europe...don't surprise me.......!!!

News / What can Poland do to maintain its Ethnic Integrity? [118]

So many countries in Europe are overrun with dark-skinned people from the third-world. Germany has its Turkish problem, France has its Arab problem, England has it Pakistani/Negro problem.

Poland has an opportunity to make things right, before they go wrong. What do you think Poland should to to maintain its Ethnic Integrity?

Laughable.....be sure to get your carers to tighten the final strap on your strait jacket.....

Love / Polish men and sex [89]

You tart.........lol...

Ela you will find 5-10 % of guys have whats known as a low sex drive....ie it equates to the drive of virtually all women....only interested in the whole sex thing in a warm caring relationship....requiring a significant amount of stimulation/foreplay........not unusual...or maybe a little bit more christian about the whole thing.......or scared...or not well endowed..........you'd be surprised!!

Life / New Balace shoes prices in Poland [18]

In Ireland they have been doing this for decades to cars..........50% Vehicle Registration Tax (VRT...or close to that!)...this is on the net price, so the government gets about 1/3 overall straight back to the taxman.

Life / New Balace shoes prices in Poland [18]

It could well be that the Polish government adds an extra "tax" to imports, which roughly doubles the price of some items....hence the high value goods from the West cost more in Poland, even the cars are more expensive!

UK, Ireland / Poles to stay or not to stay [in Ireland] - is there a question? [25]

We have an ever increasing number of Poles here, some been here for several years, ok, most have not bought a house, but at least they have a job, contribute and get very valuable experience, never mind getting a deposit for a building plot, house, farm, business...which, they could NEVER have dreamt of 3-4-5 yrs ago......

They are doing their best to live the EU, capitalist/western dream........is that so bad?

News / Are there any other countries that Polish immigrants are going to? [70]

So the Greeks...have a long way to go....yet been in the EU for what 25 yrs....why haven't attitudes changed?

After all, huge numbers like the Irish have emigrated to other countries......where they settled and became integrated....eventually I suppose.

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

PS: Frank, don't take it personal.

I won't Matyjasz.

Thank you for the single most informative post...I've seen on nearly every board I have contributed to.

I will re-read this several times and try at least to remember those people who did their best and indeed gave their lives....all heroes....every last one.

Respect to your people.

UK, Ireland / English people attitude towards Poles? [761]

Quoting: Frank
taking Protestant jobs

So the jobs over there are divided into "Protestant", "Catholic" and others and EU instead of doing something about this s*it is kicking us for "discrimination" of homos...

Thats their ( Protestant) perception...the same way as giving a local Catholic a job was worse than giving it to a foreigner!!!!

Even today....G.....trying to buy land/farm off a Protestant is very difficlut in some areas....yes in 2007!!!!!

Greeks although xenophobic and prejudists in general

Good Europeans then...???!!!

We also see positively the fact that there are very small numbers of polish prostitutes.

LOL.......so you would think badly of Germany, Netherlands where sex workers pay tax and are included as citizens of their country.......you now think negatively of those countries - would be even more prejudiced than normal?......

UK, Ireland / New BBC series following the lives of immigrants is looking for people [49]

Just remember guys...media types are only one strata above criminal types........will do ANYTHING for a story...the more damaging, dirty, salacious, heartbreaking...the better.....

Just don't become a victim...nor indeed believe 1/10th of what you read/see/even witness ( Police reckon only 1 in 10 people who "witness" something can actually relay the actual event....!!!!!!!)...........are we ALL agreed?

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

I don't think so, you included Poles in your sentence in post#260.

Ok....my sentence construction was poor.........I meant the Irish.....

So, what was with the"racist" protests re the clip, and removing it?

Basically...if there was some old guy spouting anti Jewish rubbish I didn't want to watch it....not interested in how reasonable or mild it was.....or if it was anti Polish or Irish...etc...still not interested.....

Quoting: Frank
who didn't exactly cover themselves in glory after WWII).

In your opinion, what should have the Poles done or not done, under a Communist regime in your opinion to cover themselves in glory in this period?

Mis-understood me....that was a reference to Ireland taking in a number of Nazis after the war........not good.

Never spat a dummy in my life.........but could learn to....:)

well how about "celts" then

Doesn't worry me.....unless they say we are all murdering, rapist, peadophiles......then I would be annoyed....

But a blanket term to cover the new entrants states..........is lazy...but not incorrect.

UK, Ireland / English people attitude towards Poles? [761]

I don't care about 'East europeans,;'

Thats a very poor atitude to have puzzler.......am a bit surprised you hold your near neighbours in such low esteem....

In my county( thats the only court area I know and quoted...why twist it?)
)....approx 2000 East Europeans.......around 90% are Polish.

How can I chceck it if your informants tell the truth?

...no idea( he was an officer of the court( shouldn't tell lies)...maybe an inquiry off the N Ireland court services?

How would it feel for an Irish person, if some fellows from, say, Scotland have done something wrong and somebody referred to the culprits by the generic term 'Gaelics'?

It wouldn't be used correctly...not the same...East Europeans are E. europeans after all a correct term.

Well, do you consider yourself superior to me, Frank?

...never said I did...twisting again....lol

When I react in a certain well it's ridiculous and absurd

....well you said it.

Don't question everthing as if they are lies......or worse, thats my real point.

UK, Ireland / English people attitude towards Poles? [761]

i was joking ,,,,,,

Are you sure....cos I can be just as tetchy, sensitive...over the top in my responses as PUzzler.......lol

Generally speaking the English middle classes are well educated, well travelled and more open minded.

Yes...but who protested when we ALL bought huge quantities of cheaply made items from overseas.....? ( As in other posts....we knowingly "exported" 90% of our manufacturing sector................

We are all guilty....every one of us..........from T Blair/big multi-nationals....all of us who seek to buy ever cheaper disposable items......

New arrivals are easy targets......as ever.....

Quoting:guess who
British are notorious for being prejudice.
Ta ta

thats not very fair im english and i am not prejudiced i like meeting people from other countries/cultures you can learn alot by talking to and getting to know new people . i know there are alot of nasty bastrds in this country but please dont label us all as bad ......

izanami.......never ever....ever.....ever bother to respond to non member posters..........it aint worth it.........

UK, Ireland / English people attitude towards Poles? [761]

P.....you answer every...post with questions...I don't have all the answers...no one does....I don't believe the answers I have put on posts...these are excuse/reasons others give, who do the attacking etc...............not MINE!

so Poles are actually big troublemakers in Ireland

In my local town...solicitor friends tell me 25% court time taken up with East European law breakers....mostly minor...but enough to get arrested and charged with...lots of car related crimes too.....not all Poles though...P....lol

Plus do stop twisting...putting words in my mouth........:)

Plus I think you can add Scotland to your growing list of Polonophobic nations seeing as the young student whose peadophile murderer, was convicted recently.

P....we can legislate all we want.....but peoples views attitudes are much more deeply embedded, almost...genetically/socially programmed to protect their own needs, land, food, women........

To succeed...you have start at a very young age...and it takes about 500 yrs........IMHO

UK, Ireland / English people attitude towards Poles? [761]

apart from Northern Ireland.

This appears to be true....NI is the race hate centre of Europe.........mostly because....Poles are Catholic....make the mistake of moving into Protestant areas...taking Protestant jobs...........work it out.........

Having said that pro rata there are as many Poles in NI as there are in the ROI....so maybe it aint so bad after all....but our local police are plagued with calls to stop fights in over crowded houses of Poles .....c'est la vie!

Some of my English friends think

That there are butt heads in England...Scotland...Wales..........surprised?

I think you'll find their views are similarly anachronistic...P

History / Jews...and their Polish experience [520]

P....looking at all of the posts form Poles on the board, its an extremely sensitive issue, plus seems unresolved, still something that needs tackled......

Only because Poland had the biggest Jewish pop. in Europe, they appear to have gone through periods of both being accepted then discriminated against then anti-semitic laws being passed when Nazis were ruling Germany.

Plus the fact that Hitler so detested the Jews and also wanted to punish Poland for daring to give them a country to live in and effectively looked upon Poles as not being disimilar to Jews....ergo......exterminate as many of them as possible too.

I have no bone to pick with Polish people....I have visted your country several times, I have employed a number of your fellow countrymen...no problems whatsoever....unlike other European countries I have visited.........so please don't take my sometimes naive/insensitive enquiries as being anything other than that.
