News / New European Council's report: "Poland oasis of racism, xenophobia and homophobia" ... [343]


I choked on my croissant I was laughing so hard (or snorting with derision - it's all the same)

The 40 percent normal Poles will be Poland's future as a Western European allied modern state, and you have it the wrong way round as always Johnny:)

I think you will find that the only TEFL and institutional posts teaching English are for qualified graduates, and very well experienced ones at that. If your ability to analyse and explain succinctly is lacking, and you are not creative at moving the learner from controlled to free practice , then you are going to have problems paying the rent.

If you are stating that TEFL teachers are not high earners or even "middle-class", you generally would be right:) Of course some are published, or branch off, as I have, into ESP. But there are compensations Dolno. I choose who to work with, not the other way round:)

The UK didn't "want" a million Poles living in theirs'. What a country wants and what it gets in a global village are two different things. If a million British people of Caribbean origin decided to up sticks and move to Warsaw tomorrow what would you propose should be done to stop them doing so?

Still - categorisation. And this thread is about religion. Me mam was a catholic.
Her mantra was "Live and let live," and damn right she was too.

I enjoy the topic paragraph at the END of Adrian's posts :) I too don't bother with the rest.

Off-Topic / Eurovision - Today I will be ashamed to be Polish [481]


What is funny is that some people would go to all that trouble and expense to push a song that is crap, just to "promote" their country. There are other, more productive, ways of doing that.

Off-Topic / Eurovision - Today I will be ashamed to be Polish [481]


The Polish song got 3 votes from the juries of 36 countries.
Maybe because it was crap? And then came third in the tele vote. So you are telling me that the Germans voted for it in their thousands? Or the Spanish? You obviously believe that the world is 6,000 years old in that case:)

Off-Topic / Eurovision - Today I will be ashamed to be Polish [481]

Poland got 150 odd votes from televotes. All of them from Poles ringing repeatedly obviously. Meanwhile Putin threatens action:))

You didn't watch. Somebody tele voted for the Polish entry in huge, huge numbers.

It must have been the Serbians (according to "the Crow Theory of Fraternal Brotherhood"). My mother tried to teach me not to use sarcasm, as it is the lowest form of wit, but Poland today encourages it.

It is a joke night and an excuse for a party Ironside. Delph and smurf have spelt it out for you, so you don't need to take my word for it. The Swedes get the joke. If Scandinavians (who generally have little humour as we know it) get it, it's frankly amazing that Poles don't.

But you had that laughable Sopot festival for years, so you actually enjoy, and analyse, the worst of pop music:)))

Off-Topic / Eurovision - Today I will be ashamed to be Polish [481]


Like the nationalist Poles who repeatedly rung in to vote for Poland? because nobody else would have:)))))))

Off-Topic / Eurovision - Today I will be ashamed to be Polish [481]

I liked the Latvian song but the voters made sure it was political as always :)

In retrospect, a lot of gamblers must have won big on this result.


Ironside - you Poles don't get it. It is kitsch party fun vs political shenanighans. Superb fun all round. Terrible music, terrible production.
So, paradoxically brilliant!

It's that silly time again folks.

Jon famously said this was tasteless, but it had its' points:)



Young British voters keep choosing some total gash so I predict null point for us - what about ze Poles?
Dog is being sent to bed early and it's party night at Dougpol Towers.

Oh, and RIP Sir Terry Wogan. I have the Ballantines at the ready in his honour. I suppose it should be the Irish really......

Yes - that too :). Let them specialise - and in Britain students can - unless Delph knows something I don't.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]

Ask the students. I did.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


Some of us sneer at the school system where young adults still have to learn Polish for Matura. Absolute nonsense, and an appalling waste of time and demotivating for many students destined for a career in the Sciences.

Your usual self- serving nonsense Crow:)

In modern times, Poland has always been a central Europe country in spite of those Soviets' best efforts to entrap her in Eastern Europe. Poland is in fact aligned to Western Europe, socially and politically, and that is where she shall remain.

Sorry to break that axiomatic fact to you.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


But Delph.... the PIS posters on here may not personally invest. So they think money grows on trees :)))))

You have fed us this "guru" before Wulkan. Don't let the Birmingham Workers Party boys see you supporting that rubbish. They'll have your guts for garters.

In the meantime, in the real world...... for the most part of the last 8 years, we never heard about what Tusk was up to, or what the president said.

Which is exactly as it should be.

They were too busy improving Poland. And improve they did. IMO. Who can do better? PIS are already fecking up big style, the markets are mightily displeased, and a vote for some pop star isn't going to put dinner on the table, is it?

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


Well remembered by those of us who either visited or lived in Poland in the 80s. I always did my business with Bank Handlowy w Warszawie anyway.

PKO should be avoided like the plague now that there is free choice. It's really as simple as that.

PS: PKO has built itself a prestigious centre on the waterfront in Gdynia, bang opposite Dar Pormorza. The MOST expensive land anywhere in Poland bar opposite the Warsaw Marriot one could suggest. When I last checked, it wasn't necessary for bank staff to have a sea view to do their job, and to be situated next to another eponymous Marriot.

It's your money folks!

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


But Polonius - I know of a wood near Gdynia (was dog walking - really:))) ) - where the local exhibitionists/gays go in their cars on a Sunday........

So I will now avoid that wood..........it's their place of "worship".
Similarly, I have no interest in the Gay Rights Parades OR churches on a Sunday. I somehow manage to avoid both very easily.............

You??????? PS. Said wood is in Rzucewo :)

The police = perjuring lying scum in the pay of the authorities Polonius. You, as a commie hater, should know that axiom. A frankly astonishing oversight on your part.

As a citizen, try the same perjury - and see where that lands you.....

As I said - this really is fun, from the outside, looking in. Can't wait for PIS to destroy themselves, as they certainly will :)))

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


We are already seeing that several cities, including Warsaw, are saying they will abide by the law as decreed by the Constitutional Tribunal, and will refuse to adopt the PIS "legislation" as far as it pertains to abuse of the Supreme court ruling.

Oh, but this is fun!

Which ones?

Who emigrated in the 1980s for example, and who should not have a voice.

But criminally, they give Polonia the vote :(

Too right it did. That was when the pilot's decision making was interfered with by unauthorised persons entering the cockpit.
We await the huge payments in criminal damages that the state will be making to the victims.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


Yes. In the same way that Thatcher infamously said "There is no such thing as society."


The whole world was shocked by the criminally negligent death of 90 plus innocents. Much later, the whole world was laughing at Poland (again) because of PIS's "theories".

It was left to the government of the day to point out that any confusion as the cause was just the view of some nationalist retards with no economic policies, that had to dream up yet another conspiracy theory to hide their lack of any political solution.

We have the release of the film comedy of the year aka "Smolensk" to look forward to. The citizens of Tri-City will be rolling in the aisles with laughter, I can guarantee you that.

And please do carry on with the silly posts - that's what we have come to expect when we read your moniker.


Don't feed the (nationalist) troll Harry.


Don't be a silly billy InPolska. You know Katowice, so you will have heard of John Baildon. Brits have been coming here for centuries, and I feel like I've been here for centuries too, so I bloody will have a voice while I still have a tongue.

And unlike many on PF, I am a taxpayer, ground rent et al. So that troll with his threats can kiss my arse.


All of this tittle-tattle is very Daily Mail chaps. Policies and the economy are what matters here. And take a look in the mirror. I know I have:(

Kaczynski is fair game because of his homophobic past of course.............
