Love / Polish girls hard in relationships [156]
It's not disrespect, We just trying to point out some issues which occur in every relationship not only with Polish girls. I am not surprised that British guys are desperate and have to look for love among female emigrants. Most of you have no chance to pick up good looking British girl as there is not that many of them, competition is to high and their expectations are usually much much higher than Polish girls. So in many cases you base your choice on look only and that usually leads to complicated relationships. Personally I am avoiding any relationship with village girls ( in my case Polish girls) as they are usually very strong bonded with their families and for example her mother's or sister's opinion will be always more important than your.
More than 40% of Polish population are village people and mainly their mentality is based on 3 things - the family, vodka and the church. There are a lot of cultural differences between Polish people from cites and the countryside. Different nations;)

Piff, Paff!
According to the Office for National Statistics, the number of British citizens who have moved abroad has risen by a fifth under the Coalition, reaching 154,000 last year.
Separate figures, published by the OECD, show that almost 1.3million Britons with university-level education are living abroad, more than any other developed economy.
When I over hear discussion at my local, I always hear British people (usually men) saying the Polish are cowards for moving to Britain instead of staying put and helping to build the Polish economy and making it a better country.

Germany did pay heavy reparations to Poland - extensive machinery and raw materials were given in exchange plus some cash. In the 50s the Polish commie govt let the East Germans off but the West Germans did pay some more in trhe 70s.

UK, Ireland / Why English do not like Polish? [417]
Once I was on holidays in a hotel full of British families. When I was telling them that we are from Poland they were getting green-red face and you could notice that they are not interested in continuing the conversation. One thing we noticed that the families didn't try to make any contact, they didn't speak to much to each-other and they looked like they were sent there for punishment except to black families who really enjoy it.
Last summer I went to Egypt to get diving licence. My instructor was British girl from Bristol. She told my that she changed a lot since she came to Egypt, she noticed that most of British are depressed, closed-minded and can't enjoy the life.
We can spend/waste all day here and argue who hates whom more and who is better etc. We are all humans at the end. We all have bad and good sides because we are humans. If you hate other people probably you hate yourself too
It's not that easy as you think. There will be always someone who will remind you that you are not welcome here and after a few attempts you get it that effort is pointless because there is not award. Also after spending a few years in other county ( in my case European country) you realize that there is no difference between you and local people except your native language. I don't find anything interesting in being British or in British culture because is very similar to Polish culture. You like to eat fried potatoes we like to boil them but sometimes you eat boiled potatoes and sometimes we eat fried potatoes too

Let Germans pay for the destroying Warsaw during the 2WW and many other Polish cities when they were bombing civil targets and shooting kcivilians before we start talking about any re-compensation for Germans
We may also focus on crime committed against Indigenous Australians because I think "We are very sorry" it's not enough.
And Israel should pay re-compensations to Palestinians for bombing civil targets

It doesn't matter if there were Polish, Jewish, Martians or Goblins, the property was on Polish territory so it became nationalized by Polish state, as there was no known inheritors. Jewish people, are an ethnoreligious group and now we have situation where some Jewish organization demand property which never belonged to any religious organization. Catholic people's houses don't belong to The Catholic Church!
What a joke...jews living in poland were poles so if you are now a jew, some different nationality I think you should get zilch. Germans who stayed became polish ok, germans who left, zilch. If you are a jew and you live in poland and you are polish and someone took your property sure. Anyone else is just a parasitic fireigner.

the law doesn't recognize Jewish, Catholics or Muslims. The law is the law and all the properties left by killed Polish Jewish became property of Polish state just like Polish Catholics' properties who were killed during the 2WW and there was no known inheritors have been nationalized. That law works even in current times. If you can prove that you are inheritor after for example Polish Jewish family killed during the war Polish state give you back the property or pay the re-compensation.
Can you imagine a situation when lets say Catholic family die in Israel and there is no inheritors and some Catholic organisation demand their property?
The Germans abandoned their properties in Poland. After we got back western part of out territory. The Germans were allowed to stay and keep their property they had to only take Polish citizenship. Some of them stayed in Poland, mostly near to Opole town where you can find road signs written in both, German and Polish language

Law / How much would I have to earn before paying the tax office in Poland? [17]
It's stupid to tax people who don't have income.
If you don't want to pay ZUS and don't want to break the law. Register and don't pay ZUS. If you you can't make enough for living and paying tax you can close down the business and file for bankruptcy . Obviously you still have a dept to ZUS and they will suit you ,but in court you can say you don't have any money or asset ( if you don't have any) to pay the debt and they will leave you alone until you don't make more than polish basic pay.
Good luck
That's a particularly stupid plan. Breaking the law is rarely a good idea, screwing with the tax office is an even worse idea.

In Poland the law allows you to do mods on the cars. You can see plenty of them on the roads, but there are some limitations like windscreen and other windows must be 70 and 75% transparent, and as far as I know it's not allowed to use xenon lights if there are not fitted by manufacturer. Also all parts you want to fit in your car need homologation. Obvious thing is that the modifications can't affect road safety, so use common sense and be think safe;)
