Love / How real is your international (Polish-other) relationship ? [53]

.In Germany the most provocatively dressed girl I saw was a polka who rode bicycle with half or more of her ass out of her trousers in the centre of the city not seeming to mind at all.

How did you know she was a Polka?

UK, Ireland / Brits to protest against foreigners in the workforce, including Poles. [289]

I always thought you are a patriot not a nationalist (in the BNP sense of the word).

That's about it really the old saying about the "patriot loves his country and the nationalist hates everyone elses".

As for why i just don't agree with their policy but i also have no time for the fanantics on the left either, true enough immigration needs looking at but in a sensible way.

Do you think many people will spoil their vote and vote for the BNP in direct defiance? as has been suggested on this thread.

I don't think they will. It will be a general election next and most people use the locals and Euros to give the parties a kick up the arse. I cannot see the BNP making anymore ground to be honest.

How well are the UKIP doing in comparison to the BNP

For sure they will get more votes than the BNP, but how well they will do against the old guard is hard to say.

The BNP are something more sinister.

George Orwell wrote ( i tried to find the exact line but couldn't) The working class have the most to fear from fascism but always seem to be drawn to it.

It's in there somewhere, may not be your cup of tea but imo a great read :-)

This is the kind of myth that leads the stupid and easily led to vote for nutty fringe parties

I can only comment on what i see. The town i live in has a high number of ayslum seekers who are housed in houses and flats, i dare say some are in hostels.

I also said the ones who have never /hardly paid into the system meaning born and bred Brits.

A vote for BNP is a clear sign of discontent with immigration as that's the main issue that BNP is associated with

Convex has it bang on the money.

there is an alternative like the UKIP.

Most people see UKIP as a anti EU tory group and not a stand alone party.

be one of the reasons for BNP's popularity?

I know quite a few people whom have recently become unemployed for the first time in their lives, some of these have been working since the age of 16 and were finished in their 50s. Because they paid into a pension which allowed them to access it at 50 but at a vastly reduced rate when they were made redundant they were not even allowed to claim jsa, even though they still had to find work.

Contrast this to the people who have never/hardly paid into the system at all and the ayslum seekers who the council bends over to help with housing, heating and free food vouchers and you can see why people are getting pissed off.

USA, Canada / Do you speak English? Have you lived in America? New LOVE/HATE list......... [144]

The homeoffice doesn't seem to agree.

That's 07/08 i said 08/09 see link.

news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8153392.stm

So was the knife, the club..the stun bolt.

Are they in the declaration?

Yes.. and gun violence no matter how much your BBC

Why so defensive i only asked a question. Find on here where i have ever had a go at the US!

To Scrappy and Convex with regards the above why on earth should someone want/be allowed to own a military assault rifle at home, which i believe is allowed in some US states.

Not in the UK

Murder and manslaughter rates in the UK 08/09 are at their lowest rate for 20 years, gun crime for the same period was down by 17% and violent crime down by 6%.

With regard to your edit that may be true but also the gun was invented as a tool to kill.

I like the constitution, greatest document ever written

Given the easy access to firearms and the resulting high number of deaths from firearms incidents, do you really think the right to bear arms is a good idea and worthy of place on the "greatest document ever written"?

Law / Polish Cop Took My Car Registration :S [143]

the police are automatically assuming that the database is right and the insurance documents are wrong.

Due to people buying insurance, getting the documents and then cancelling but keeping the documents. They will often phone up the respective insurance company and double check.

Life / Do you think a smoking ban would be a good thing in Polish restaurants and Bars? [217]

not sure what you mean there old pal.

I meant visiting someones home is ok but it doesn't compare socially to the pub.

Blanket smoking bans were introduced in many cafes, bars and restaurants

Who would have thought old Adolf the architect of the smoking ban.

time means:
i don't smoke.
Nazi! ;)

Life / Do you think a smoking ban would be a good thing in Polish restaurants and Bars? [217]

I hear about some new ban on smokig.

It's only in public areas. If people want to smoke then thats's fine, i however don't want to.

drink them at home with a fag. It makes no sense to go to the pub...the irony being that many non smokers spend their saturday nights in cramped living rooms with smokers

The pub wins everytime but it's the cost.
