I have a really good friend who takes things far more seriously than is good for him.
He says I am the only English person who has behaved to him how he expected Brits to behave.
He was raised to imagine Britain as a fair minded place with honest, decent people yet, since moving here 4 year ago he has had nothing but insults from strangers, unfair requests from bosses, employment agencies attempting to underpay him and anti-immigration (Polish) propoganda from our media...which is a disgrace.
The latest needle in his ribs was a story in a red top tabloid with the headline
"Polish Eat Swans".
I think they may have gone too far with this one because we both came close wetting ourselves with laughter whilst discussing the story on Sunday night over a botttle of Zubrowka.
Is anyone stupid enough to believe that some of the recent Polish immigrants to these lands are actually hunting swans to kill and cook for dinner?
