UK, Ireland / Why English do not like Polish? [417]
BEFORE I GO ON THESE ARE SWEEPING GENERALISATIONS. I JUDGE INDIVIDUALS ON THEIR OWN MERITS NOT A BROADER OPINION. THIS IS A GENERAL CONSENSUS ANSWERING A VERY GENERALISED QUESTION.
My reason for not like the Polish as a Mixed raced educated person with a JOB (just before everyone assumes that EVERY British person doesn't like migrant workers. I don't care where you're from when you're here. Just work and speak English to a working functioning level...and integrate) is their general rudeness. As a culture, and maybe it's a language thing, but the English are mostly polite and considerate. The vast majority are open and willing to learn. The section of the British population that don't like the Polish for taking jobs here are the people we Brits ourselves don't particularly like.
My reasoning is that there is little integration, or efforts to integrate. There is HUGE hostility from the males and the women just don't try at all. This experience is coming from the people I currently live with (and am hoping to leave as soon as humanly possible), being the boss of a group of polish workers years ago before I went to university (a 19 year old college student was the boss of 10 Polish folk at a cleaning company...we can't be that lazy as a nation!) and living in London for a good while as Manchester and Southampton.
I'm sure it's just a cultural thing...but an overwhelming amount of people from ALL OVER THE WORLD who live in London particularly...don't like the Polish BECAUSE the Polish don't particularly like anyone...or want to.
It's a known fact that the Polish don't like the black/brown folks like myself (mixed while and black). So yeah I've had some nasty comments for no reason, and I'm a very very quiet man.
ALSO, I got mugged at gunpoint by a pair of Polish guys...thanks for coming over to the UK to steal my things and almost blind me in one eye!!!!
Granted the above could of happened to anyone anywhere...but it happened in a place where they'd come to prey on students (Cambridge)...so **** that!
You're not liked because you don't WANT to fit in, you're rude and frankly don't want to be here...
This has nothing to do with "you taking all the jobs".
You didn't take my job. I'm a freelance illustrator. None of my friends are about you "taking all the jobs". You affect very small portion of the UK populous. You affect very few educated people...and in England, so many folks have degrees...so...go figure.
Integrate, stop being so angry, stop committing crimes and stop being racist and rude!
It's not often that the one thing several racial groups that often have their own tensions group together to dislike 1 group that has somehow managed to **** EVERYONE off! We like the rest of Europe. It's just a couple of countries no one has any time for anymore.
