News / Why is PO still in power? [9]

Because PiS are even bigger Dckheads.
In Poland you don't vote for the party you agree with, you vote against the party you hate more, thus why old Jarek has lost 6 elections in a row.

Life / Polish Tech sites to rival the likes of Gizmodo/Wired/Lifehacker? [4]

Are there any Polish sites to rival the likes of Gizmodo/Wired/Lifehacker etc?
Sites that focus on tech in Poland.

I did a google search but all I got were a few crappy sites/blogs and for the most part many of them haven't been updated in a while.

Also a question on something different, how can I insure my phone in Poland? The dude in the orange shop looked at me as if I had two heads when I asked.

Travel / Experience to travel from Ireland to Gdansk? [4]

if ya wanna do it the cheap way linda, fly to frankfut hahn and then to gdansk for a good bit less. I did that a few times when goin to the heineken music festival. I've never flown wizzair, but mates have told me it's pretty much the same as flying with ryaniar.

I've only once flown direct to gdansk and I think that was aerlingus and I got a decent price on a sale, otherwise though gdansk is probably once of the most expensive airports to fly too since it's such a touristy kind of place. But, think about the frankfort hanh option, it's just an airport, but you'd only be waiting a few more hours and that time of year the weather'll be nice and you can just chill out in a beer garden there.

UK, Ireland / Irish Census and number of Polish [46]

So, what question are you spouting on about?

Your rudeness knows no bounds.
I asked you why do you have a problem with people becoming Irish citizens? You haven't given a reason, you're just ranting and raving as is your usual style.

Why? Its the national language

Yea of course it is, but only in name, most people can't speak it and most have no interest in it. I can speak a bit and I love the language, but I don't think people should be forced to learn something they don't want to. I think the best thing for the Irish language would be to take it out of the schools completely. It's stir up some patriotism for it and get people to learn it properly.

The largest Irish language schools are in Clondalkin, Ballymun and Tallaght

Look chap everyone know that Irish schools are useless. The only reason they exist is because education is the biggest scam going in Ireland. Also kids go there coz they know they'll get higher final exam points if they do their exams in Irish. Plus what right-minded kid would actually want to go to school in any of those scumholes?

How many more people can a windswept bankrupt rock off of western europe provide a better life for?

Quite a few according to the census.

Do you have a criminal record?
Do you have a large family of dependents?

Yea, as I said ranting and raving.

UK, Ireland / Irish Census and number of Polish [46]

A large minority of them needed court interpreters to understand the oath.

got an proof of that?
Also could you actually answer my question?

Your idea for an exam, I can agree with, some general knowledge of histroy/geography etc, I'd have no qualms with that, how and ever buddy, I think an exam on the Irish language is a bit of a stretch. Sure, most people east of the Shannon can hardly string a sentence together in their native tongue. I love the Irish language, I really do, but I think we'd be better served learning it ourselves before forcing it down the necks of people coming to our country for a better life.

Whatever you want to call it.

I call it "It's really cool that foreigners want to become Irish citizens", I've absolutely no problem with someone doing it if they choose to. Why do you have a problem with it?

UK, Ireland / Irish Census and number of Polish [46]

it will never again be Irish.

It never was.

It was a Viking settlement that became a town. The Irish lived in Ballybok & Irishtown. Some Irish moved into Dublin for trade reasons etc but it was accepted that the Scandinavians were the top dogs in town, but it was never set up by anyone Irish. When the brits ruled us it was the 2nd city of the empire & when the 2nd last royal visited all ye jackeens were out waving your little flags for her. lol. Hardly an Irish thing to do that, honouring a foreign oppressive queen. Sure 'tis a well known fact that people from Dublin are known as both jackeen and west brits. roflol.

Cork, or as it's pronounced Kawrk...Kilkenny & Limerick are Irish cities, all were founded before the Viking invaders plundered them and later settled and traded there. Galway wasn't established until the 12th C but it was set up by an Irishman, unlike Dublin, although it was taken over by the Normans not too long after it.

Law / Car Insurance in Poland (A/C) [32]

Will it matter Harry that I'm not buying it from the dealer, but from a 2nd hand saloon? Probably not, but ya know, this is Poland, everything is possible.
