UK, Ireland / Are you able to hear the different English accents? [97]

This is for the Polish. Are you able to hear the different accents in England or does it all sound the same to you?
A Polish guy I know stated that this other Polish guy was posh and that he was from the South due to his accent. I heard no difference between his accent and the "posh" guy's accent.

Pointless question I know, but just curious. Everyone else has answered pointless questions so I'll ask this one..!

UK, Ireland / The number of Anti-English Poles... [228]

By all means am I lumping every Polish person with these idiots. The majority of English folks get on with the Polish if there's respect both ways. I used to go to house parties with some Polish when I lived down South and a few Poles cheered on England in the 2006 World Cup so there's no doubt in my mind that both get on.

PS Sorry for my awful language... I hope its intelligible... :)

I understood what you were saying, needs a little work but you speak better English than I speak Polish.
Those articles being sent over to Poland made to look like the UK is on an anti-Polish campaign is just garbage. I would guess that the majority of Polish that have returned home will tell you that they have experienced nothing of the sort. Many have even settled here in the UK, which they wouldn't be doing had they faced problems here. Our problem lies with immigrants from the middle east.

UK, Ireland / The number of Anti-English Poles... [228]

Nobody is discriminated against at my workplace. Everyone does equal jobs. In fact, it seems to be the Polish that are offered overtime before anyone else. I wouldn't say there's any valid reason to have the mindset they have. The only thing I can think of is that they've met one or two English people they dislike and then lump the rest of England with them.

UK, Ireland / The number of Anti-English Poles... [228]

Has anyone noticed the large number of anti-English Polish guys in the UK? I had come across a few down South that stated that they hated England and English people. I moved up North and again I find a fair number of Polish guys that also hate England aswell as the English people. At my workplace there were 2 Poles that came out with anti-english remarks in Polish. An English guy picked up on what they said and squared upto one of them.

Don't get me wrong, the majority of them are decent and are great to have a laugh with but there is also a large handful that need their heads sorting out. The Polish women however are all very decent. The majority of them are attractive, love to be flirtatious, love to smile and I have no problem with any of them. It's just a proportion of guys that have a problem.
