News / Tesco out of Poland? Żabka and Biedronka opportunity. [73]

Polish people

Charity begisn at home. Is it in the interests of the Polish nation to first and foremost multiply the prosperity of other countries, esp. far more affleunt ones, at the expense of one's one? Unlike theBalcerowicz sell-out heresy, already in 1990 all efforts should have been directed at creating a viable. competitive, inidgenous Polish capitalist class. Since that was not the priority of the Soros-directed stooges of the KOR/PZPR roundtable clique, there is not a minute to lose to launch such a cmapaign at present.

Biedronka and Lidl

For the sake of selfish personal self-comfort and convenience you would promote Portuguese and Kraut exploiters of the hapless Polish shopping public?! Disgraceful!!!

Tesco profits decrease in Poland, may close some outlets



Tesco made a profit of PLN 10.8 billion in the 2016/17 financial year, down from PLN 11.2 billion a year earlier, the daily reported, citing a statement from the mutinational retailer.

"In Central Europe, sales in comparable stores grew in all markets except Poland, which remains a very competitive market," the statement read, according to the daily.

Meanwhile, the daily reported that Tesco would close some of its Polish locations and reduce retail space at others, seeing its presence in the country shrink by some 33,000 square metres by next February.

Do you think the pro-Polish (Buy Polish) climate now prevailing in PiS-ruled Poland where many Poles are fed up with being exploited by foreign concerns had something to do with it? That is probably better than special taxes for the biggies -- a patriotic Buy Polish movment with Morawiecki style incentives for indigenous business. If their business starts falling off, the biggies will themselves decide to leave.

Language / What are some loanwords in the Polish language? [24]

left many words

Very interesting but it would have been better if you had given more exmaples of Italian, German, Lithuanian, Turkish, French, etc. borrowings, at least 3-4 in each.

News / How will BREXIT affect the immigrants in UK and Poland. [1114]

Serbians

Before there were Serbs there were Sorbs (akaWrednsand Lusatians), Ponad's next-door neighbour belonging to the Westslavonic group. When some of them moved to the south, they mangled the language, became south Slavs and adopted many Turkish customs. Polish and Sorbish are mutually intelligible, Polish and Serbian are not.

current interpretation of the Polish constitution

It is not a current or any other "interpretation" but a point-blank statement that defines marirage as it has always been and always will be -- a union between a man and a woman. That lets out deviant hook-ups between homos, lesbos, bisexual trios, paedophilic duos, bigamistic harems and even woman and Great Dane liaisons.

o the one he loves

Pray tell who it is, Mr Know-All. We all know that Mr "Ramrod up his bum" will self-importantly say: "I am not at liberty....bla-bla-bla" and then cite Poland's identity-protection laws, §120, section 3, subpoint C...as if anybody gives a hoot about what anyone says on a chat forum.

even the Brits

...As if Brits were some kind of arbiter or authority on how other countries run their affairs. The Limeys of all people, who have turned their own country into a cesspool, should exercise a bit of restraint and humility in such matters.

eternal bachelor

Even by your haphazard standards that's a flimsy example. Jesus and St John the Evangelist were laso eternal bachelors. And Marta Kazcyńska does not create PiS policy. What about Tusk who lived for 20 years with his wife non-sacramentally and fathered two kids, but when he ran for president in 2005 he got married in church. Neither you or your guru or GW ever stigmatised such hypocrisy.

He stands for

He stands for typically leftist social engineering -- the use of pressure, threat and
blackmail to impose his anarcho-libertine agenda on society and persecute all those who dare disagree with the one true leftist-utopianist vision. But he doesn't forget the carrot -- lavish bankrolling of those who play ball or at least successfully pretend they beleive in all his codswallop.

esteemed foundation

And the only ones who regard that Jewish Mafia as an esteemed foundation are the idiots weaned on MTV, who were never taught right from wrong and spout such "wisdoms" as "if it feels good, go for it" and "whatever rocks your boat". Such airheads are the prime candidates receptive to Soros subversive brainwashing.

Soros

Back in the comic-book era a stock character was the evil genius or mad scientist who wanted to destroy the world but was stopped in the nick of them by some super-hero -- Captain Britain, Wonder woman, Superman or what not. That is not just fiction. Today multi-billionaire financial speculator George Soros is playing the role of that super-villain using his fortune to brainwash young people in the anarcho-libertine mode. Today's super-hero is Viktor Orbán who has seen through the Hungarian Jew's ploy and has cracked down on his heaivly bankrolled Central European University, a hotbed of anarcho-libertine-leftist indoctrination targeting ususpecting yong Hungarians. Soros was clever enough not to even try such a ruse in Catholic Poland which would have given him a prompt rebuff. He has had to settle for his infamous Batory Foundation which many Poels view with understandable suspicion.

Another good change: trade office in San Francisco to spur Polish-US buisness



Hardly a day goes by that the government does not introduce yet another good change to the Polish landscape. Under dynamic Developemtn Min. Mateusz Motrawiecki, the Polish Foreign Investment Agency (PAIZ) has recently opened an office in San Francisco to strengthen Polish-US business ties in such areas as R&D, business centres, IT services, automotive, energy and new technologies. "The office is a landing site for Polish companies taking their first steps on the US market, and a departures hall for American firms interested in investing in Poland," PAIZ CEO Tomasz Pistula explained. Under PiS, PAIZ plans to set up shop at some 70 locations in countries which offer Polish companies the greatest potential for development. They have recently opened offices in Ho Chi Minh City, Nairobi, Shanghai, Singapore and Tehran.

"Franglais"

In Montréal there is a sign on a cemetery fence: Défense de trépasser as a translation of No trespassing. In normal French it means "no dying allowed".

handle language

Speak Polish with the Mrs, English with our son and German, French and Russian with others as needed. And when I'm back in Polonia I say things like: Nasza nejberka klinuje ofisy, a jej mąż wczoraj zostawił karę na hajłeju bo mu gazoliny zabrakło. Also: Bojsy się fajtują na sajdłoku. 'Oh yes, I speak Swahili with the "daughter" your guru LL claims we've got (LOL)!

thrown into cold water

That's called the Berlitz total-immersion method. At lunch if you don't say "Darf ich um den Pfeffer bitten" or "Czy można poprosić o pieprz" you eat a bland and insipid lunch. Or find yourself a non-English-speaking girlfriend which is doubly motivaitng. You don't want to come off as a moron so you really try. Except that their wives didn't appreciate such advice! (LOL)

certain basic objects in your house

Good idea but should be expanded. In a notebook (or on the computer) set up different categories: family members, vehicles, fruits, livestock, wildlife, buildings, occupations, emotiosn, ideologies, countries, -- the sky is the limit. And as you run across a new word add it to the proper column. That is an excellent way of vocabualry building.

Work / Polish Military - Salary / Benefits [4]

Polish Armed Forces

TWICE AS MANY LEFT THE ARMY UNDER POO!
Predictably, the "total(ly hare-brained) opposition" is now obsessing about what they call a "purge" of the army, whose command is being reformed to remove Soviet-trained and/or PRL holdovers who have no place in the Armed Forces of Free Poland. What the oppositon conveniently omits is that during POO rule in 2010 and 2011 twice as many left the army as at present. Also, in 2016 for the first time in over a decade all the funds earmarked for modernisation were actually put to good use. That inforamtion was presented to the Sejm by defence Min. Antoni Macierewicz to counteract the cheap propaganda being spewed by political badmouthers of the Petru-Schetyna-Kijowski gang and their gullible disciples.

News / Poland may take the EU to court if they step up pressure -- Kaczyński [89]

marginalised

Even before 27-1 Poland was excluded from a key EU meet-up of four - Germany, France, Spain and Italy - when it should have been the top five. Poland has been exluded from the so-called Normandy formula on the Ukraine conflict, although Poland is a next-door neighbour of Ukraine. Under the POO regime Poland was and was expected to be a yesman of the EU biggies. It as unable to stop the construction of Nordstream. Now at long last it is standing up for its rights.

News / Poland may take the EU to court if they step up pressure -- Kaczyński [89]

demands visas

It is not the fault of hte US that many Poels provide untrue information in theri visa applciatons. The claim they are coming as toruists but seek gainful employment which is illegal. When the violation rate falls below a certan level, visa waiver will be automatic.

Definitely a special relationship with the US. When the cowardly frogs were telling Poles to button their lip and the Western press was calling Poland "America's Trojan jackass", Poles eagerly joined the coaliton of the willing in Iraq and Afghanistan side by side with US GIs..

Only now is Poland standing up for her rights in the EU. Under the Germanophile Tusk, Poland got pushed around and was marginalised. The POO regime told Poles to sit quiet in view of hte huge EU funds coming their way. Only recnetly has it been revealed that Germany and other Category 1 countries are siphoning out of Poland far more profits than Poland has received.
