Are Poles in UK really that big of a deal? [112]
Everybody seems to assume us brits have an issue with poles and other nationalities living in our country. we don't.
You (ok,many of "you")Brits DO have an issue with Poles and other nationalities living in your country but that's OK,nothing wrong with that.I know few roughnecks from my town who moved to UK and frankly I can understand Brits being pissed.No problem.What I have an issue with is the fact that only Poles as a group are being singled out and blamed for everything what's wrong in the UK.Just look at the number of articles regarding Poles in UK in British press and tell me honestly have you ever witnessed similar hate campaign against any other nationality?I don't think so but feel free to prove me wrong.
I think immigration is a brill thing as long as its legal.
Oh, I love that.Here is a simple solution.Make all immigrants legal and you won't have any problems with illegal immigration.That's actually very American what you are saying,when you ask Americans what's their opinion about immigration they are ALL pro immigrant but will tell you "just do it the right way".Now,I don't about UK immigration law but I know that the ONLY chance the illegal immigrants in the US have to immigrate to the US is to win the "green card lottery",that means that if they tried to do it "the right way" they wouldn't get anywhere.If you don't have a family in US or a milion USD nor you are a genius or asylum seeker your chances are 0 (zero). So much for doing it "the right way".Kind of hypocritical if you ask me.
