baked beens, quarter ponders,fried becon, steak pies or trifle. i would buy em if in Poland
i just love english fried breakfast with tinned tomatoes,bean,egg bacon and sausages.

aussies were running some point base immigration system..f you are young ,educated in the fields they need ,you have good chance to get green card.

dont go abroad with tourist visa,hoping to get job nd life.
unless if you have some money to spend on solcitors, you can go with tourist visa and then apply for business visa once in Australia.try this point immigration choice first

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

income taxes are just fraction of contribution. just think of those 800k people pay for lets say ,accommodation.800k times 100 quid a week average renting price for room. that's almost 5 billion a year.or travel-1 million times 30 quid a week-1.5 billion. and then mobile phone top ups,council taxes,utility bills,gas,water,electric.national insurance ect.

and its not only poles they want out.but all EE people. and that almost 5 million of young taxpayers. brexit idiocy

Work / Finding work as an EU citizen (Polish) in another EU country [21]

As for the social help that you mentioned, how is that usually applied to if needed? is there a special office i'll need to apply at considering i'm a Job seeker?

yes.there are designated offices where you can ask for information and apply for help,or even apply online at .job centres websites.they have different names depending of country.

but walfare money and life is rubbish.with your education you can live like a king with proper job.could help at the beginning tho. applying is usually fast and easy.

Work / Finding work as an EU citizen (Polish) in another EU country [21]

as polish passport holder you dont have to state purpose of stay to the officials in any EU country.you can reside as long as you please.

you can legally work and rent property.as for social walfare help,i am not sure,it depends from EU countries.in some you can get full access but some restrict access to social help to poles.

Language / Learn Polish or Russian [86]

You seem to be completely unaware of Russia's policy of claiming ownership of Russian speakers and the countries that they reside

not sure.in case of Crimea one would come to completely opposite conclusion.it was Ukraine who took possession of land that had never belonged to them in the past ,and had no Ukrainians living there neither.not too mention,Ukraine pursued policy of ethnic cleansing there,banning Russian language,and top ukra politicians calling for nuking Crimea and russians.

Russia will 'protect' Russian speakers by invading their host countries,

good.i would hope for our government to act in same manner in case of ,lets say Lithuanians murdering poles in Lithuania.

Russia's often stated policy and it matches the claims made by Hitler to justify the invasion of Austria, Czechoslovakia and Poland.

oooo..the nazi fascism argument.how original.
if thats nazi policy what Russia is doing,what would you call,illegal,criminal invasion and occupation of IRAQ BY US,Poland and errr Ukraine?

killing and wounding 1 million Iraqis,war crimes like torture camps in Poland,looting resources ect.huh?
so invasion in defence of citizens is fascist policy,but invading another country just to grab and loot is Okey?

well.with russian language you can communicate with people in whole EE to some degree.poles would understand about 20-25% of russian language.balkan people and Bulgarians probably even more. thats some few hundreds million people

Genealogy / How many Jews lived in Poland and did they ever convert to catholicism, if so when? [62]

. Saying that Jews were treated badly (and often they were) without mentioning that other, Catholic citizens had it similar is misleading.

exactly.feudal system was cruel and unjust to like 80% of europe population,not just jews. arguments such as -Christians discriminated jews cus they banned them from owning land is nonsense.vast majority of Christians were not allow to own land.sure there were more direct hostile actions against jews like,but pogroms but pogroms against christian peasants were far more common.i remember Koniecpolski wiped out entire villages in north prussia and them burned down,just to deny food to inviding swedish armies.sometimes i think like being victim is like religion for too many jews nowdays.

look at this for example,yesterday iwanted to check some facts about nadniestrze capital.and what i see here:
pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyraspol
few lines about basic facts about this city,and separate section about how jews were treated there.hilarious.some cementary mistreated ect.

Genealogy / How many Jews lived in Poland and did they ever convert to catholicism, if so when? [62]

every Jews that converted to Catholicism had been automatically granted citizenship and rights - a Polish noble status.

i didnt hear about that.i know Muslims who pledged loyalty to polish crown were granted nobility status.tho polish "nobility" is somhow different than western nobility.many types with different privileges,some of noble types were poor commoners and had little social status.like zasciankowa szlachta for example

and alot of people believe that jews were discriminated in europe through medieval times. reality is that they enjoyed much better social position than 90% of Christians (pesantry) who had no rights to own land,marry without permission,travel ect. they were literally slaves.

and yes...todays "lithuanians" are mere descendands of somogatians and poor fishermans from baltic coast,that had little of nothing in common with lithuanians. who were mostly ruthenians.thats why they hate GDL times so much.cus they had nothing in common with GDL culture and people

Genealogy / How many Jews lived in Poland and did they ever convert to catholicism, if so when? [62]

Jews have been living in Poland for perhaps a "mere" six-hundred years,

err...you mean western european jews.but there were quite sizeable khazar jewish minority in Poland long before 14 century.so jews in Poland lived longer than 600 years.

It was not until the Enlightenment however that Jews throughout much of the continent began to be granted the rights and privileges of national citizenship

through medieval time, jews were massively privileged minority if you compare them to christians,in western Europe.they had enjoyed much more rights and privileges than average christian in Europe.

enormous contributors to European culture,

yea thats true
i read and i heard that most polish jews didnt even speak polish language,or understood polish culture.this tells you how much separated and confined life they were living in pre war Poland.

Life / Polish people and racism. [943]

UK, Ireland / British people more intelligent than the Poles? [53]

Poles or Brits cant be much different in genetic related intelligence. European ethic nations emerged something like 10k years ago.its just not enough time to any significant genetic differences to occur.

the difference in numbers of inventions and IQ between those nations are socia-economics reasons. Britain had much better education systems in the past. Britain was always very rich in the past,Poland was poor.mostly due to location and geographic features.

its well know facts that nations develop faster in peninsulas( greece,italy) or islands,due to security.british islands were never destroyed by wars like Poland was.. only mogol invasion took us back like 100 years in development and infrastructure

in pre war Poland ,vast majority of population had no access to any education at all.cant expect any huge inventions to be discover in such circumstances.

but still,we have more scientist noble price winners than pakistan and india and whole africa combine.

History / Poles also killed innocents [32]

Doesn't seem to be much if any data concerning how many lives were lost when Poland joined Germany to invade Czechoslovakia just prior to WWII

huh? invade? recovered treacherously stolen zaolzie land by cynical czech. Poland was very modest approach to them after what czech did there in 1920.
if i were president i would order to hang every czech in zaolzie , after what they did there. czech acquisition of zaolzie is most shameful example of people being scum.they shamelessly invaded Poland when we fought Bolsheviks in the east,pathetic opportunist land grabbing..fkin losers.they quick to point "polish invasion" but dont want to remember how they got zaolzie in first place.

Or when Poland invaded Czechoslovakia was it done bloodlessly?

indeed it was bloodlessly.

funny,how those polish neighbors have nerve to cry over 2 world war.all of em that is lithuania SStonia,ukraine russia and slovakia joined Hitler in carnage of land grabbing and slaughter. they quick to forget about that.typical losers blaming poland for every misconduct to divert attention from their past and ppl learning about their enormous war crimes

History / Poles also killed innocents [32]

History / Poles also killed innocents [32]

The number of Ukrainian victims is estimated at 13,000 - 20,000. Isn't it genocide as well, I wonder?

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

And so it begins:

i dont know what Poland would do to help..my understanding of this is that The Common Travel Area between UK and Ireland will not be preserved in event of UK leaving EU. it wouldnt make any sense to keep it.all this referendum was about taking control over UK borders.what would be the point leaving this border open? anyone from EU, who wishes would travel to Ireland and then cross into Britain.

Law / Polish Visa, Work Permit, Residency for Spouse of Polish Citizen [69]

what sort of marriages are you involved in,when your own wife cant be bothered to go to urzad wojewodzki and ask all info?

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

Plus a pool of cheap labour enabled some companies to expand.

yea,and gives better chance to land better job positions.4 milion immigrants needs supervising,provide office service,ect.
in construction most laboure is done by EE people while professionals(like managers,architects) are English. at least in London.
so i guess Low skilled ppl gives opportunity for natives to land better job.
i remember there was one debate where one UKIP member was saying that is better to bring "indian doctors" and professionals from australia than EE low skilled workforce.and someone confronted him sayin that they would take away good job from locals,forcing them do do ****** ones

but god knows whats the truth in all this

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

So the fact that 50 isnt being triggered immediately makes a lot of sense, since once it is, you have 2 years with the EU.

maybe Britain hope of some France and EU leadership change before they proceed with negotiations. the current leaders seems very hostile towards Britain. especially Juncker and Hollande. France have election in early 2017,and who knows NF might win.
