UK, Ireland / Why can't unemployed Polish people on benefits just leave UK and go home please? [240]


Exactly.
All this anti benefits hysteria has been whipped up by the government in order to divert attention away from their own 'expenses' claims and from big business paying zero income tax in the UK.

We have to rise above it.
Apart from that, in general Polish people tend to be workers, not benefits claimants.

UK, Ireland / Polish candidate for London mayor to represent 2nd-class citzens [26]


I dont disagree, but London is really not like that, and has not been for many years.
Honestly if this Zylinski felt like that in London, he must have been out there actively searching for "racism".

As for him representing Indians and so on, that is actually quite amusing from what I know about London society.
Let's just say that the English are not the most racist people in the capital....:)

oh yes Anti Semitism in Poland, not America....
What I found fascinating when I taught classes in Poland, is that there were even any Jewish names left at all on the class regisiter, what with the terrible history of WW!! as well as a later expulsion of Jews.

I suppose there will always be survivors but surely any left would have departed for Israel?
