Love / Polish Gay Life [142]

lots of the polish people don't mind gay people unless they are too openly gay

So what your saying rafik is it's ok to be gay as long as you keep it a secret and don't let "normal" people see that your gay?

rafik

Your missing the point mate. ANYBODY, no matter what their sexual orientation, they will be overstepping the mark if they perform sexual acts in public. So for you to sugest that they (gay people) have more rights than hetrosexuals is simply not true. If you want to make it illegal for gay people to show affection to each other in public then the same has to happen for "normal" people. Being "gay" isn't about being a pervert like Grzegorz_'s homophobic view suggests. They are normal people with a different sexual orientation. Their parades aren't about recruting young boys, they're about pointing out that they are just normal people who have the right to express themselves. "Gay" which origanally meant happy is an acronym from Good As You.

it is the male posters who have problem with men/man relatuionships.

That is POLISH male posters! Which backs up my claim that Poland is a homophobic country. And I think your 100% right about the reasons for it. And it is good that G is sharing his photo collection from previous parades.lol

UK, Ireland / Polish workers found hung in Herefordshire [51]

TWO Polish workers have been found dead at the premises of a fruit farm in Herefordshire.

Police were called to premises of S&A Davies, the strawberry growers at Brook Farm, Marden, Herefordshire, at 4.40am on Saturday when the body of a male was found.

Later that morning the body of another man was located at a different location on the site. Both men are believed to be Polish migrant workers.

UK, Ireland / Polish workers found hung in Herefordshire [51]

what makes these two so special

Because of the strange circumstances. I posted it because of a storey a few years ago about Polish fruit pickers living in "concentration camp" conditions in the south of England. I think it was Oxford. Maybe someone else can elaborate?

Edit

If I wanted to be pedantic (which I often do), I'd point out that hung is incorrect and it should say hanged.

I just checked it in my Cambridge dictionary and it can be either.

UK, Ireland / Polish workers found hung in Herefordshire [51]

I can't find the origonal storey I wanted but it was on these lines.

They live in a fenced camp, are housed in caravans for six to ten people, with shared washing facilities and have problems with water and electricity supplies.

"They told us of fees they were being charged for basic services that we know should be free, of being left without overnight accommodation, and even more worryingly, reports that they were not receiving free medical treatment when they needed it. "Most of the workers were from central and eastern Europe, and feeling really vulnerable. To the T&G, it was clear that they were being exploited."

Hopefully after this double tragedy more will be done to improve the conditions that these people find themselves trapped in!

News / What if Poland has decided to withdraw from the European Union? [54]

Poland had a referendum regarding joining the EU, and the result was a big yes.

About 77.5% have said yes to the EU, with a turnout of around 59%, according to initial results.

news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/2973738.stm

So if the Polish gov decided to withdraw from the EU they would be going against the wishes of its people.

Poand has gained some things by joining the EU.

They have received financial help to rebuild the road and rail infrastructure which was in a big mess.

Poles are now free to travel freely and work in many new places...(but not to their "good friend" America)...without a Visa. So as a result many Poles have gained financial security.

Since Poland joined the EU it has one of the fastest growing economies on the planet.

Many things have improved so why on earth would some idiot want to withdraw from the EU?

UK, Ireland / Poles and Poles in the UK = animosity [42]

Poles can be nasty to other Poles abroad

My wife was advised NOT to work for other Poles when she came to england three years ago, because they tend to rip off their fellow countrymen.

Del Boy you need to take Mister H's advice and move!

That's because it translates it wrong in most translation dictionaries!

UK, Ireland / UK bus company boss jailed for hiring an incompetent Pole [71]

Maybe they are crazy in the UK (Poles) but they are not here. One or two, like anywhere, but the majority are good drivers.

Actually Seanus I have to disagree. A lot of the good drivers have gone to the UK and many who are left are just dam right dangerous.

It's not right that they are using drivers who can't speak any English.

Hairball. Your Polish is good enough to read road signs mate, isn't it?

I'm not fluent in Polish but I've got a good vocabulary and yes I can read the signs!

UK, Ireland / UK bus company boss jailed for hiring an incompetent Pole [71]

you should expect someone to pay a £4.50 fare with a £5 note.

How about a 2.50zł fare with a 200zł not like I had yesterday?

the whole thread is ridiculous

I hate to defend noimi rafik but he is right. The driver is suposed to be a professional and he should have been aware of what was in the road. He should have made absolutly sure that the road was passable. To say that he couldn't see bacause of the sun viser is a lame excuse.

the drivers were not properly trained.

Which is a major part of the problem. The standard of driving in Poland isn't good enough. And it's not just bus drivers. It's right accross the board.

the employer is responsible for the safety of the vehicles/equipment

Your totaly wrong. It's the drivers responsibility to check the safety of his vehicle and to report any faults. And it's quite imperitive that he has the language skills to report any such faults.

I can't beleive how many normally intelegent people on this forum are defending the incompitence of this driver.

HE KILLED SOMEBODY FOR CHRIST SAKE.

It could have been a loved one of yours.

No, it was stationary at the time, the bus was a double decker and hit the cherry picker as pointed out the sun visor in the drivers cab obscured his vision and he didnt see the cherrypicker.

I passed a cherrypicker on my rout today. I couldn't see the box, or the guy inside of it because it was up in the air and yes my sun visor obscured the view.

GUESS WHAT FOLKS. I SLOWED DOWN TO A CRAWL and made sure there was enough room to pass safely.

It's not rocket science. The driver had no excuse and should have made sure it was safe to pass.

Yes. As incompetent as some of the drivers they employed

You got it right there Mr Koolo

unavoidable.

I've looked carefully at the photo and although the cherrypicker is on the footpath he is clearly working on something next to the road. As a professional driver you have to be aware of all hazards weather thet be on the road or on the footpath. The excuse that he couldn't see because of his viser is pathetic. The "accident" was 100% avoidable with a little thought from the driver. Surely he should have been able to see all on his approach.

Magda Tychmann and her new boyfriend Jorge Carballo were left fighting for their lives after they were stabbed in the neck.

Polish student Magda, 25, needed emergency surgery on her severed artery. And her boyfriend, 26, received 15 stab wounds, with blows narrowly missing his heart and lungs.

News / America: Take your missile base and shove it! [116]

Sometimes no actually means no

Except in Polish no means yes! Lol

if they were against iran

That's how the yanks have been selling the idea plk. As a defence agsinst "rogue states" like Iran. You know they say Iran because that's who they want a war with next.

Iran is a peaceful country that has NEVER aggressivly attacked another country. Maybe Poland should build their own shield as protection against the rogue 'united' states. lol

If Poland doesn't want an interceptor base, it is up to Poland

That's right rambo. And the vast majority of Poles have stated very clearly that THEY DON'T WANT YOUR "SHIELD."

missewa:

I'm saying the Neocons are trying to divide traditional Slavic brothers by placing their troops and missile bases in countries that they don't belong.

you are one paranoid guy/girl,

With a user name like miss eva you can't tell what sex SHE is?

News / America: Take your missile base and shove it! [116]

I am not trying to say Americans do not make mistakes, but this prejudice you (yes, you too, Mr. hairball) consistently demonstrate against Americans or our country is tiring, and to be honest, offensive. The things you accuse us of go beyond simple ribbing between Brits, Yanks, Poles etc, and slip into a much nastier tone.

Oh please spare us your old worn out smoke screen of calling us "American haters" just because we question the foreign policy of your Neo con government. Time and again you say things like....

My only comment to you (and yet again, you demonstrate your hate! what did Americans ever do to you?) is that if you look up one day and see white flashes, the warheads detonating are not American ones. You can also be happy that, in the last milliseconds of your life, you and those like you ensured these were not shot down.

......when the reallity is JohnP that the only country in the world that has waged nuclear war is the good old US of A. You go on and on about the "threat" of Iran when the reallity is JohnP that the ONLY war that Iran has EVER been involved in was against the AMERICAN backed Iraqi's. It's not the Iranian government that has been involved in constant military action all over the world since the 1950's that has resulted in the deaths of millions of people. That's your country, the US.

I'm bored with you constantly accusing me, szkotja2007, Foreigner4 or any other brits on this forum who dare to question the constant war mongering of president Bush and his predecessors. It doesn't make us American haters. It just means we see a different picture to the one that you paint.

Maybe you can find some info or insight i didn't find though.

I don't know if you know of Alan Friedman, global economics correspondent for the International Herald Tribune.

Here's an interesting interview he made about the arming of Saddam Hussian as well as Osama. How The United States Illegally Armed Saddam Hussein.

Of course the United Kingdom were involved too!

if you can tell me how a purely defensive system is a "threat" to anyone other than those with offensive intentions, please do so.

It's a question of who is precieved as to having the " offensive intentions." It's in Polands best interest to be friends with her neigbours. This "shield" is a drict "threat" to Polands neigbours, so therefore not in her best interest.

News / SHOULD POLAND/EUROPE BE WORRIED ABOUT RUSSIA?? [90]

I can read history and what Stalin did was the worse mass murder of history.

Not at all.

By far the worst single act of mass murder in history was on 6th August 1945. But that wasn't enough so they did it again on the 9th.

gensuikin.org/english/photo.html

The left photograph shows the stone steps of the main entrandce of Sumitomo Bank which is only 250 meters from the hypocenter. It is believed that a person sat down on the steps facing the direction of the hypocenter, possibly waiting for the bank to open. By a flash of the heat rays with temperatures well over a 1,000 degrees or possibly 2,000 degrees centigrade, that person was incineratied on the stone steps.
