Classifieds / Polish domiciliary carer worker in Bromley area [20]

low paid job- They don't pay below minimum wages as it is illegal so who is exploited?.

Please, don't twist my words I said 'these work-shy on benefits' I did not say English are lazy.- I understand in your opinion it is better to do nothing and moan, moan moan instead of doing some job? Any job start somewhere, them move on. NO on minimum wages you can rent room for yourself ( don't say about London).

To be honest 'Polish' is only in title of this thread. I assume that they look for someone who speaks English I doubt they pay much plus hours are not very sociable and work probably hard. I don't see crowd of English queuing for this job. With sure not all these work-shy on benefits.

I think it is also advertised in UK and they struggle to find someone so nothing offensive.....

If it was written in Polish and directed only to Polish it would be different matter.

It is a matter of taste.

I don't think Miss Duda is 'fake' blond and I don't think she is bland.

Life / Should I expect racism as a 'black' woman in Poland [149]


I believe you. I think its hidden complexes so by nasty racist behavior they feel them selves more important.

It is not different to leaflets left i Huntington after Brexit- 'Polish vermin go home'.


Thank you for advice but I am still very Polish :-)

Do you expect them to have big t-shirt with sign 'I am gay'- and with your opinion about Poland and Polish I don't think you have many friends there.

Life / Should I expect racism as a 'black' woman in Poland [149]

I don't live in Poland so I am not up to date with all of them.

I am not sure if you ever read -I love Marcin Szczygielski books.

But Anna Grodzka is good example- She is transgender- I am not sure if you have any in UK Parliament?

Life / Should I expect racism as a 'black' woman in Poland [149]

It does not matter where they live they are openly gays- so it contradicts your statement.

I have been living in UK for 14 years so I also know how this 'tolerance' looks here. It is paradise no racists, no homophobia...Ha,ha really

You clearly know nothing about Poland. Statements Generalizing country of 40 mln are just stupid.

Life / Should I expect racism as a 'black' woman in Poland [149]


I think homophobia is like racism- Each country has some share of them but it their actions are usually suppressed by low
.Brexit is a good example- all low life racist rats are getting out of sewage now.

As per shave headed ( often football hooligans) you are right they should be avoided.

USA, Canada / Polish mother in law wants to move in - what can we do?? [10]

I think that lots women all over the world like to have their mum close when baby is born.

But it usually lasts for few weeks and then mums go back to their old life.

When I read about your mother in law I was just thinking about someone I recently met through work. She was also abused by alcoholic husband. And she is very clingy, flat,no ambitions....

I think this could be a problem- Can she just go for some therapy?

It is also fact that you are troll and idiot.

Life / Should I expect racism as a 'black' woman in Poland [149]


You assume too much.Graffiti- work of some stupid kids just to write something controversial.....These are not some organized gangs.

I can ask the same question- Would I like to be at night in some rough area of London or Glasgow....probably no.

Talking about tolerance- just few facts from Wikipedia : As we are so patronized as backward intolerant country ...that it starts getting irritating.

""Homosexuality was never illegal under Polish law, and Poland was one of the first countries to avoid punishing homosexuality in early modern era. This was formally codified in 1932, and Poland introduced an equal age of consent for homosexuals and heterosexuals,""

"" Labour Home Secretary. When passed, The Sexual Offences Act decriminalised homosexual acts between two men over 21 years of age in private in England and Wales.[55] The 1967 Act did not extend to Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man, where all homosexual behaviour remained illegal. ""

Life / Hesitation to emigrate in Poland from Singapore with 8.000 zlotys a month job offer [9]

I think it would be enough ( also depends on in which town) but everyone is different. Maybe you should go for short holidays to Poland first. I know holiday is not the same like living there but just for general feeling.

For me it would be very brave to move to completely new country I know very little about.

UK, Ireland / Polish in Britain - will I get decked if I speak Polish to these people? [63]

Ha, ha not sure it would work so well in UK.... too many war memories. I would say German speaks very good English here and blend in crowd very well.

UK, Ireland / Polish in Britain - will I get decked if I speak Polish to these people? [63]

So German were pushing and now others take advantage?
I am surprised it is the same language group and German in general speak good English ( I thought....)

UK, Ireland / Polish in Britain - will I get decked if I speak Polish to these people? [63]

I am surprised they have US passport. Different rules....

I think in most european countries you should pass some language tests to apply for citizenship.

UK, Ireland / Polish in Britain - will I get decked if I speak Polish to these people? [63]


It is very bad. I met someone like this when I was in USA- it is very isolated, restricted life. And no interest even in local culture, tv, newspapers....

UK, Ireland / Polish in Britain - will I get decked if I speak Polish to these people? [63]

To be honest I have been to a few polish shops in UK and in each of them sale assistants spoke at least basic English.

I would say they are quite flexible and quickly move between Polish and English depending on customer.

I know it is open forum but I suggest than moderator ( instead of picking on out of subjects plots and moving them around) just remove idiotic ,racist post of some idiot from Liverpool.

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

UKIP seems to have some fixation about commonwealth countries.....apparently European people don't fit in UK but people from commonwealth fit here perfectly.

There is some truth in in it that emigrants do lower jobs- mainly it is confidence , language barrier.... but it relates mainly to first generation of emigrants.

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

That is the problem - people moan about cheap labour but they also want cheap products in the shops. If we increase wages prices will go up and it will cause even higher moan. Like we will pay £3.50 for box of strawberry instead £2.00- so sell dramatically drops and jobs get reduced to.

I am not economist it is just common sense:-)

Plus - I am not sure if labour is always so cheap- I think farmers pay decent wages but for hard work. Lots of young people quick and fit are probably quite happy with it.

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

You both talk rubbish- UK rely ( vastly ) on emigrants to do these jobs so if not Polish there would be other emigrants to do these low paid jobs. If there were no emigrants, benefits would be cut and some locals would have to do it. Just survival necessity.

And Polish are as lazy as other nation some are some not and this living 10 to a room... repeated stereotype. Maybe in the very beginning not now

News / Anti-government opposition wants to impeach Poland's President Duda [44]

What opposition is doing in Poland now is just disgusting.... first running to Brussels for help in attacking current government . Help did not come so new ideas now.

It came to my mind Orwell and pigs at trough.....when trough is taken away it is big squeal.

The biggest mistake and shame for Europe is that we did not help people who really needed it. Vulnerable Syrians who lost everything were lost, stomped in crowd of arrogant oportunists men from Pakistan, Somalia....

Ha, ha-Jon you live in some communistic utopia world - no border, re-distribution of wealth....- It would be great idea lazy leeches living on people who work hard.

UK, Ireland / Dual nationality: British and Polish [68]

3 years for EU person.

This 5 years permanent residence is for non EU citizens- For instance Chinese lives in Poland for 5 years- then applies for permanent residence.IT means he can live and work in Poland. But this work permission relates only to Poland as he applied there.

If you are EU it is 3 years.

UK, Ireland / Dual nationality: British and Polish [68]

This description applies only for non-EU person. If someone was born in UK/Germany/France.....she/he is resident of EU since birth so he/she needs only 3 years in Poland to apply for citizenship.

That what was original question about.


I think this only relates to non EU citizen who stayed in EU country for 5 years and can apply for permanent residence.

UK, Ireland / Dual nationality: British and Polish [68]


I think this interpretation is correct. You can ask different people on forum but I would suggest phoning them- there is 'kontakt' on this web.This way you will be 100% sure and clear about your situation.

another link in English- I am not sure if I understand it correctly but 5 years to be granted permanent residence in UE. Minimum 2 years of it Poland to get residence in Poland .

No it does not add up as 3+5.
I understand that you have to be minimum 3 years in Poland to apply for citizenship. You could be 2 years somewhere in UE than 3 in Poland so you have residence and also can apply for citizenship.

UK, Ireland / Dual nationality: British and Polish [68]


It is irrelevant if you are UE or non-UE citizen. You should have been living in Poland for minimum 3 years ( or 2 if married to polish citizen)

UK, Ireland / Xenophobic Backlash Against Polish School in London [23]

I think these non-European have problems with them too.

It is just easier to attack Polish as it is more xenophobia than racism.
