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


I would like to remaind you, that it was Argentina who has attacked Falklands, not the UK.

Language / Help with correct Polish grammar - "Wojownik Warszawa" or "Warszawa Wojownik"? [9]

it just sounds like Captain Planet ("Kapitan Planeta"). stiff and unnaturally if you ask me.
"Warszawski wojownik" or "Warszawski Wojak" would be fine

Love / Do I move from UK to Poland or not? (I met a Polish lady) [21]

Why wont she just come to the UK to live with you then?

Travel / Returning to Poland after 20 years in America [18]

Why would you move to a different continent if you could just move to a better state within the same country?
And no, unless you have a good skills there is n on point of moving back. And if your skills would be good, you would have a decent job in the US.

Language / How long to to learn Polish? In hours? [64]

well... according to FSI one needs to study Polish language for 1100 hours (44 weeks) to be somehow efficient- but no way to the C levels. B1 is achievable however. do you live in Poland or not? either way, try to immerse yourself in the language- change your mobile phone's language to Polish, do the same with the laptop/desktop/tablet/whatever. it really makes you pick the lingo up much quicker.

News / Will eight million Polish people flock to the UK now that we are going for a hard Brexit? [38]


are you joking? in my city (fewer than 100k inhabitants) there are 4 shops like that... the biggest one ("nasza biedronka") is run by the kurds/turks employing Poles... they (i.e. owners, not the Poles) even learn basic Polish to speak to the customers- vast majority "Eastern Europeans" or, if local, trumps who came for a cheap lager

you had to have a pretty ****** life in the UK if you think that the only one better thing in UK (when compared to the PL) are wages.

News / Ethnic tensions erupt in Ełk, Poland [180]


yes, that's a great reason to punish someones girlfriend.
not to mention that, you know, there is plenty of other choices than either being servitudial or thugish.

Shut up you creep![/quote]

oh, you have told me!
And seriously- I have too much to do with the bold headed Polish "patriots" that are supporting collective punishment based on religious beliefs to even respect them in any way.

And no, I do not consider myself a "cultural neo-Marxist".


As much as I would rather people obeyed the law and I don't condone any assault for whatever reason, you should show some sense.[/quote]
yeap. that's why punching strangers in their faces makes so much sense.
but hey- this and other cases (like: Pakistani getting beaten up in Ozorkowie) are just a prime examples of patriotic activities of shaved head idiots (ya know- the same type who replaced their HWDP/JP100% hoodies for the "Polska Walczaca" ones).


"Your thug son tried to be smart, but trafila kosa na kamien". is that enough, or will you shed more tears for that thug, and pretend you actually care about him or his family?[


if it would be Pole punched by another Pole, there would be no topic about it on PF

@kondzior
oh, I love photos like that. sure, the ones shearing were, quite often, even more guilty of collaboration than the shorn women (many of them were forced to prostitution, but nevermind), but hey- it takes attention of us.

And, I see, you do not agree with people dating whomever they wish, right?

Oh, brave, brave polish patriots decided to take revenge on the accused's girlfriend- her, and her boyfriend, flat and boutique she owns was vandalized.

hail, brave rycerze ortalionu!

As a collective punishment goes, a Bangladeshi kebab-shop worker got hit by the unknown thug.

News / Ethnic tensions erupt in Ełk, Poland [180]

actually, no. one could forget he hold a knife, if you momentarily start chasing someone you may, in the anger, forget what you hold in your hand. in that case, it would be a homicide, but not a murder.

News / Ethnic tensions erupt in Ełk, Poland [180]


guy came to the shop, argued with them, stole drinks, run away, got caught by kebab workers, stolen good were retrieved- there is no information about him getting punched (i'd frankly speaking break his arms, i bloody hate thieves), than he (and his friend) came back and thrown firework into the place. they run after him instantly, fight started, ended with main perpetrator getting stabbed.

accident, unfortunate but still an accident- definatly not a planned murder.


... from what we know, he never had any problems with the police- unlike the chav who got sniffed out. maybe you should rethink whom you call a "scum".


I wont even comment that.

"(..)Doszło też do próby podpalenia mieszkania jednego z zatrzymanych ws. zabójstwa. Rafał Jackowski z zespołu prasowego warmińsko-mazurskiej policji potwierdził w poniedziałek PAP, że w niedzielę podczas manifestacji doszło do zniszczenia wynajmowanego przez jednego zatrzymanych mieszkania.(..)"

so already some idiot tried to burn the algierian's guy flat- nevermind that's on the first-floor of multi-floor building (blok)- and also nevermind he was just renting it, not owning it. great!

News / Ethnic tensions erupt in Ełk, Poland [180]


so far- he was the scum who got killed. people react only because the suspects' religion- if that Sebix would be knifed by a fellow chav nobody would care, there would be no topic on PF nor the mob would gather. simple as that.

(edited as two people are now suspected and charged with it)

News / Ethnic tensions erupt in Ełk, Poland [180]

sorry, but how else would you call it?
the suspected guy was already arrested, the mob didn't do it- police did.
mob instead attacked the place where the guy worked, ruining other people business (as the arrested did not own the place).
how do you think, what would happen if there would have happen to someone who would have a (bad) luck to be there at that time and have a darker skin color? would he be ok or would he be lynched for things that someone else has done?

chavy "patriots" can- and already do- ruin business of people who have nothing to do with the crime just because they happened to be darkies. like- ruining the restaurant owned by Hindi guy, and spraying "f*ck islam" on the walls. or spraying similar texts on historical, Tatar mosque.

well, there is a nice Polish saying for the act the tunisian guy did: "Wyrwać chwasta".

Law / Changing the name on a Polish passport [6]

You have to visit your local USC (urzad stanu cywilnego ~ registry Office), since you wish to polonize your name (and surname) you have to bring your pelny odpis aktu urodzenia (if you were born in poland) or papers that prove you are Polish citizen.

Ask them, when I've changed my name they were very helpful.

Study / Is Poland a good Place for quality education? [19]

there is no point in coming to Poland for (higher) education, when there are much many more countries that offer it. UK, Germany, France- all of them have decent universities; living in many of them isn't much more expensive than in Poland.

History / Forgotten crime from Soviet occupation period - an article from Rzeczpospolita [6]

Merged: 60th anniversary of (almost) a Soviet intervention in PRL

"(..)Tylko jeden raz, rozpoczęła się w Polsce radziecka interwencja zbrojna na całego: czołgi szły na Warszawę. Uratowały nas... Chiny.(..)"

"Only once, the soviet armed intervention has started in a full scale: tanks were going to Warsaw. We were saved by... China" (ok, ok I admit this translation may be a bit clumsy).

Anyway, in short (very short)- Soviets has almost done what they have done few month earlier in Hungary.

Study / Studying in Lublin on IT without mathematic and physic knowledge? [11]

am I the only person who thinks that?: why the heck did you chose to study IT when your maths isn't any good?
if you are happy writing websites (in any framework) than just write them, read a lot about technologies you use (php? python? JS? *sql?), improve your skills. having a certificate from random uni in Poland will not help you- in most cases they aren't worth the paper they are printed on.

UK, Ireland / Why English do not like Polish? [417]

yes, there are.
there are whole bloody streets, together with shops, hairdressers etc etc run by Poles for Poles - so on the end there is plenty of Poles who speak almost no English and have zero knowledge- and interest- about the local history, customs and traditions. And no, only because some other groups also do it it doesn't make it somehow better or acceptable.

i somehow cannot quote the post that was made before me. must be a bug or something.

UK, Ireland / P60 UK Upload - Brexit and Polish people's contribution to the British economy [48]


technically speaking, one needs to live in the UK for 6 years to be able to apply (and be granted) for British citizenship (excluding situation when they got married to the Brits etc).

After 5 years, one gets Pernament Residency (in the EU law system), or, IFL (in British laws). One needs to have it for 12 months to apply for citizenship.

And yeah, those who wish to remain pernamently should obtain UK citizenship- so they would have full voting rights and could participate in elections. plus, language test and "life in the uk" test ensures that they have at least basic knowledge of host' culture and tongue.

musza placic podatki nawet jesli nie mieszkaja w USA, wiec nie widze powodu czemu nie mieliby oni miec nic do powiedzenia w kwesti, jak sa one wydawane.

@Ironside
moze i prostacka, ale duzo bardziej prostackim jest wybieranie rzadu w sytuacji gdy sie jest przed jego poczynianiami bezpiecznym za granica (mam na mysli tych ktorzy nie zamierzaja wrocic w ciagu najblizszych lat).

co do orientowania sie nt. Polskiej vs lokalnej polityki- coz... w UK pelno jest Polakow ktorzy ogladaja tylko Polska TV (zyjac juz od kilku lat na emigracji); nie maja oni zielonego pojecia o miejscowych zwyczajach, historii, polityce, znajomosc jezyka kulejaca. 0 asymilacji- i mam nadzieje ze za takowych sie rzad wezmie (chociaz, prawnie, nie za bardzo sa na to szanse). Gdyby migranci w PL odwalali to co robia (wielu- bo nie wszyscy oczywiscie) Polacy w UK to od razu bylaby gownoburza

Po polsku / Co sądzicie o prawie do wyborów w Polsce? Głosowanie za granicą. [18]

nom, napatrza sie na mityczne "lewactwo".
kij na co (badz przeciwko komu) glosuja- tak czy siak jest to tak jak wybieranie koloru do scian w mieszkaniu sasiadow- nie oni beda z tymi wyborami zyc na codzien. a jak tak bardzo chca wziasc udzial w wyborach- prosze bardzo, niech sie przeprowadza do PL i zyja tam ponoszac konsekwencje swoich wyborow.

Po polsku / Co sądzicie o prawie do wyborów w Polsce? Głosowanie za granicą. [18]

ktos kto wyjechal na dluzej niz 10 lat nie powinien miec prawa glosu- ani w wyborach lokalnych, ani glownych.
po dziesieciu latach pobytu za granica nie ma sie pojecia o scenie politycznej w kraju, jego nastrojach (bo o czerpaniu "wiedzy" z poszczegolnych portali nie wspomne), zreszta- jesli ktos mieszka na stale za granica (jak najbardziej ma do tego prawo) i nie zamierza wracac, to moim zdaniem nie ma zadnego moralnego prawa decydowac o tym jak sie bedzie zylo w kraju z ktorego on (ona) pochodzi- na co ida podatki, polityka zagraniczna etc wszystko to powinno zalezec od tego co ludzie ktorzy je placa zaglosuja.

system stosowany w UK mi sie podoba- chociaz skrocilbym okres z 15 do 12 badz 10 lat.

Language / Learn Polish or Russian [86]

or citizens of former soviet republics...
you know- if you take (traditionally) clothed Tajik and Uzbek you may confuse them with Pakistani or Afghani.
Russian is still a quite useful language, if we are talking abut Euroasia only, then it's much more useful then Spanish (or French for that matter). Obviously, in Americas Spanish and, to a lesser degree, Portugese are more useful then Russian.
