UK, Ireland / Brits to protest against foreigners in the workforce, including Poles. [289]

Hmmmm..... Speaking as a Briton who is deeply unimpressed with his fellow countrymen and 'Modern Britain', I think the natives should feel honoured that anyone would want to come to this slum-ridden, chav-infested dump, for whatever reason- I can't wait to move to Spain, where the weather, women and lifestyle are so much more agreeable. I shall only miss seeing the Polish hotties here- it's easy to spot them in the town where I live: they're the attractive, articulate ones (they tend to have a much better grasp of the English language than the locals, with their mangled vowels and awful provincial accents).

............I didn't say I would be working there............ and as for being shocked by Spanish women, I have never been as shocked by the women of any country as much as the dreadful, drunken, lardy, screeching harridans of this country have shocked me.

UK, Ireland / Brits to protest against foreigners in the workforce, including Poles. [289]

I have one particular English friend who is constantly b1tch1ng about the Polish stealing all the work, yet I have personally witnessed him turn down several jobs on the grounds that they were not suitable (translation:not cushy enough), and I know many others who have a similar attitude to him: they do not want to work unless they are satisfied that they will earn the maximum salary for the least amount of time & effort.

There is also the situation where British employers will take on Polish people as they have a reputation for being more industrious than their British counterparts- and the unscrupuluous employers will hire Polish in the knowledge that they can probably get away with paying them less/working them harder.

The fact is that British workers seem to have brought the situation on themselves by being too picky, and dare I say it, too downright lazy when it comes to work, and British employers have contributed to this for the reasons listed above.

My friend blames the Polish- when he should be blaming himself and his fellow countrymen, but, like all too many people here, he is too dim to see the bigger picture.

UK, Ireland / Polish woman in the UK gives birth then leaves the baby in hospital [28]


It's a little unfair to generalise isn't it? I could fill a bus with people I know who are not Polish and also not fit to be parents. And the word should be 'disgrace', not 'shame', your sentence doesn't make any sense.

You should read what I said more carefully, I can't dumb it down anymore than I already have.

UK, Ireland / The Daily Mail - coverage of the Polish people [161]

The Mail used to be a half-decent paper (many years ago), needless to say I don't bother with it anymore- unless I need a good laugh. If anyone wants a giggle I can recommend their website, particularly the message board, with comments (translation: raves), by their semi-literate readership. Honestly, I don't know how anyone can take it seriously.

Love / How to seduce Polish girls: Tips and advice [118]

I am not sure if this is a serious post or not, but I would suggest that one just treats her as a gentleman should, and count yourself lucky to have a Polish lady, and not a pasty-faced, baggy-arsed, loudmouthed English chav with an unaccountably high opinion of herself and an awful provincial accent.

(written by an Anglo Irishman happily attached to a Warsaw lady)
P.S., lest Englishwomen take offence, I have had Irish girlfriends, and they're just as bad, if not worse. Bunch of heiffers.

Love / How to seduce Polish girls: Tips and advice [118]


Yes, she is, she agrees completely, and she approves ;)
Unless of course you know her better than me? BTW, she is Anglo/Scots- so I think my parentage covers all of the British Isles.

Why, what is your problem? Are you in an unhappy relationship/marriage with a horrible British harridan? Maybe you should get out more? I'd love to stop and chat more, but I only just returned home from Yemen and I'm starting a contract in Saudi soon. Travel broadens the mind and all that. Chin chin

Love / How to seduce Polish girls: Tips and advice [118]

Well, there you go- what did Voltaire say? It was something like 'I may abhorr what you say but I shall defend your right to say it until my death'- or something like that.

What I find baffling is the Polish men who are attacking me simply for telling the truth abour the women of the British Isles, really- you'd think they should agree, let's face it British women are an embarrasment (as are many British men, with there beer bellies and slovenly attitude), I can't figure it out.

Love / Hi Guys Iam British And i am went out a polish girl twice [28]

I don't think so either - or should that be 'I am don't think so?' ;)

Love / Hi Guys Iam British And i am went out a polish girl twice [28]

Pardon my ignorance, but why is that? Can you clarify? I only ask as my mother is a British 'prod' and my father an Irish catholic, and they have been happy together for 45 years. Maybe you're a little behind the times- the biggest practicing religion in the UK now seems to be Islam, now THAT'S something to worry about.

History / Why are Jews pestering Poland for "proper" WW2 monetary restitution/reparations? [750]

I used to have a lot of sympathy for Jewish victims of the holocaust, but their constant attempts to milk everything til the last drop are becoming tiresome.

As an old Jew once said: 'There's no business like Shoa business' :)

('shoa'= Jewish term for the holocaust)

Work / Driving jobs in Poland. (HGV and bus/coach) [11]

I used to drive trucks, both domestically and on the continent. From what I learned on my trips to Poland Truck and Bus driving jobs there are the bottom of the pile. It is not a highly regarded profession, and the salary is abysmal, however I stand to be corrected. I would advise that you choose a different career in Poland, perhaps teaching English? Or look for a multi-national company in Poland that needs native English speakers to deal with clients on the phone.

Off-Topic / Polish head of state plane crashed in middle of nowhere? [56]

It is better to be silent and have people think you a fool, than to open your mouth and prove it.
What's with the fake redneck/black/trailer park trash slang? Why not just speak English instead?

Off-Topic / Polish head of state plane crashed in middle of nowhere? [56]

It's the new English of the multicultural West :)
Yes, sadly, that's very true, but he's faking it, and faking it badly.

I doubt that very much- message ends, Bubba :)

News / Is it possible that Polish president was assasinated? If so then, by whom? [921]

I am sorry, but I cannot understand these conspiracy theories, if the Russians wanted to assassinate the Polish President, then why? What would it achieve? Nothing. At the moment, Russia is trying to heal old wounds, to build bridges, the Russians know that Poland will be a key player in 'New Europe', and Poland will be an important trading partner and a bridge into the EC.

Really, if the Russians wanted to eliminate the President I am quite sure they could have done it more discreetly, but again, to what purpose?

I apologise, these conspiracy theories are very entertaining, but they don't hold water.

Ok, I'm listening- so what would they gain? I guess nothing, they would be shooting themselves in the foot. Why would they do this?

Travel / Anything and Everything worthwhile about Warsaw to share [23]

I like Warsaw, particularly as it's impossible to get lost on the Metro. I tried - as I like a good adventure - but failed.

I did, last time I was there.

Yes, everything tastes better when it's free!! Especially beer. Mmmmmm

Law / Government/EU Funding to start a new business in Poland (Warsaw)? [13]

Thank you all for the advice, but perhaps bad news if the money is mostly targeted at minorities as it's a Warsaw native who is thinking of setting up their own business. However, we'll look into it. Thanks again.

Language / Free and accurate Online Polish-English / English-Polish translator? [49]

[Moved from]: Polish/English electronic translator?

Has anyone used one? I see a lot of generic translators on Amazon, etc- the kind of thing that translates 15 languages (and not very well judging by the reviews). Does anyone know if there's a specific English/Poilsh one in existence, and is it any good?

Or has anyone used a mulit-language translator that does the job when it comes to the Polish language?

Law / Irish welcome on Polish building sites ? [47]


Race mix? The Polish are European, in case you hadn't noticed. And if irish women weren't such dog-faced lard-arses with unaccountably high opinions of themselves then we wouldn't prefer Polish girls.

Perhaps you're just jealous because you're stuck with one of these inbred, web-toed boghoppers??
Or maybe you're not getting any at all, which is why you come on here to vent your frustrations, you sad, narrow minded culchie- and before you say anything, Dublin is a small town, ergo the inhabitants (with the exception of immigrants and returned Irish immigrants who have been out in the big wide world), are culchies.

Message ends.

Thanks all, but I'm looking for a 'pocket' translator, something I can take with me on the move. I already have translation tools, etc on my laptop, but don't want to have to lug it around with me.
