No Poles Allowed! - Latest Polonophobic Outrage Out of Britain [660]
I read an article about it in the Guardian yesterday. The comment section was the most interesting, of course.
Most people basically ridiculed the sign as being offensive. Mind the 'Eastern bloc' part (!).
I had a good laugh reading some of the comments, too. Some claimed Poles must have fished for carp there - I must be strange as our family has carp just once a year and surprisingly enough we get it from shops ;)
Others pointed out Poles will take fish they have caught home and there was this guy from the Netherlands claiming Poles have caught all the fish from certain lakes in his country - lol!
As for the sign, well if it applied to other people, ethnicities, religions and so on, people would have thought twice before putting it up. But obviously, it's just about Poles. As one user here keeps claiming, it's just 'criticism' obviously, and just because someone criticises certain people, it doesn't mean they don't like them ;)
