UK, Ireland / Poles do a U turn: England to Poland and then back to England again. [23]


True.
And there is enough traffic to cadge a lift with someone - no problem.

Still, dont let that get in the way of a good story. ;-)

Thats what the School is about.
The Aims of the school were probably written for an application of charity status or to get grants or something.

Kids are kids, they aren't bothered about multiculturism and stuff.

I think it is a good example of how Polish migrants are being welcomed.

And also......"preserve and develop the cultural heritage of Poland and encourage knowledge of Scotlands culture and history "

Are you seriously saying the Saturday School isn't a good thing ?

Yep, kids look cute in their kilts, an arran jumper and big boots !

You can get cheap kilts on Ebay and the like but if you get a proper kilt it will last a lifetime.

Law / Laundromats in Poland? Good business venture or not? [90]

If you have the cash and want to take the gamble then go for it.

It should be quite easy to build up a business plan.
Initial outlay, ongoing overheads etc.
Sometmes you can rent the machines ( may even be a market in itself ).
I dont think there would be a high profit margin.
If you can do service washes and perhaps negotiate with small hotels a contracted service that will help the cash flow.

So why dont you get a job and stop greetin about the taxpayers that are funding your education.

Edit - where is the evidence of Scotlands recession. Scotlands economy is growing.

Once again Scotland getting mixed up with UK stats.
In direct contrast to the rest of the UK, Scotland needs immigration -
news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/highlands_and_islands/7494864.stm

As I keep on saying - this is a London based government trying to adapt UK stats to Scotland - it just doesn't work. Look at the link - this is what the Scottish government are doing to encourage immigration - is there a London based government equivalent ?

Aye right.

I have been to a few.

I dont mind students in general.

Its just the ones that criticise the workers that put them there that I object to.

News / What is wrong with Poland that Poles emigrate? [167]

I am not going to promote employment agencies but agencies have their uses.

From the Employers side it takes a lot of time and effort to recruit someone, then if they are not up to it you have to jump through hoops to fire them.

Agencies fill a gap in the market.

From the workers point of view...total rip off.

Edit - On second thoughts....agencies should be made illegal !

Your Government did.
The same Government that pays for your education, while those south of the border have to pay for theirs.

Sponger - get a job and leave the workers alone.

Scots appreciate the diversity of other cultures and what they can bring to the country, for example, the best Muay Thai boxer in Scotland is an immigrant.

Brrrrr - ever been ? It aint called that for nothing !

The point I am making is that within Britain there are variances.
Scotland needs immigrants because of the demographics - ageing population etc
On the other hand, banging on about too many immigrants is a vote winner in England.

The Scottish Government is actively trying to attract immigrants.

Sympathies Szarlotka - Its only fair to tell you that I am the one who your wife has not been cheating on.

You see, it all started one day when fireif arrived in the village of Meryton. The arrival of such a man in the neighbourhood greatly excited Mrs. Bennet, whose sole interest in life was to see her five daughters married. The wealthy young man in question, Mr. Fireif, had leased the Netherfield estate and plans to settle for a while with his two sisters and his brother-in-law......................

He is going to say you are stupid

he will make you feel bad for accusing him of these things
