Many Poles in the UK work in the security industry. i.e pubs, nightclubs etc. That is why Polish OC is expanding, coupled with cheap Extacsy and amphetamine which can be easily smuggled from their homeland. They also have their own market amongst their compatriots. One of the reasons immigrant communities often harbour and protect criminals in their communities, is that the criminals have contacts back home who can intimidate families based in Poland. This means that the law abiding Poles are wary of putting criminal Poles in the police spot light.
Secondly, many of the immigrants are young. Especially young men, many of whom have an established network of friends in the UK.
Finally infiltrating Polish gangs, will be a challenge for the UK police forces since its such a recent phenomena. Also many people with criminal convictions have left for the Uk, since this provideds them with a relatively fresh start. Not so easy to track.
The Russians are in a different league in the UK.
