Life / Noisy neighbour - Law in Poland [10]

Americans, Brits or Israelis or anybody thinking of moving to Poland - remember, even your private argument or brawl might lead to you being prosecuted if you carry it out in a public place where you disturb others.

This is Poland - the country of the rule of law. Remember it always.

Bielany detectives have detained seven men in connection with a fight on the staircase of a block of flats on Wrzeciono. All have been charged with up to three years in prison. According to the police, the cause of the incident was a conflict between two men.
The incident took place in early January in a block of flats on Wrzeciono Street. The police determined that a fight had broken out on the stairwell between seven men: three 21-year-olds, a 23-year-old, a 25-year-old, a 29-year-old and a 35-year-old. Initially, the conflict was between two of them, but quickly escalated into a wider confrontation, drawing in more people.
"As a result of operational activities, detectives from Bielany established the identity of all participants and the exact course of the event. Investigators analyzed the monitoring recordings and collected witness statements, which allowed them to reconstruct the circumstances of the fight and the roles played by individual participants. Thanks to these findings, officers identified the suspects and carried out actions aimed at detaining them," reports Sub-Inspector Elwira Kozłowska from the District Police Headquarters in Warsaw V.

News / Presidential elections 2025 - the race has commenced!!! [665]

That PiS candidate is the same liar and cheater as they all in their gangster party.
An example from today:

It took just one post by Karol Nawrocki and a storm broke out.
"If I become the President of the Republic of Poland, I guarantee that State Treasury Companies will cease to be the spoils of political war," we can read on the official profile of the PiS candidate. And right behind him was the former Minister of Sport and Tourism from the PiS party, Kamil Bortniczuk. This did not escape the attention of the Civic Coalition MP Agnieszka Pomaska.

"Nawrocki, standing in the company of MP Bortniczuk, "guarantees" the depoliticization of companies. Bortniczuk received almost PLN 1 million for 21 months of sitting on the board of Nitrogen Group ZAK. When he became an MP, he fought to be paid PLN 200,000 for refraining from competitive activities. End this cabaret, Mr. Nawrocki," we read in her post.

Amassing gangsters those rightists are!!!!

Life / Being a Jew in modern-day Poland; Israeli Jew who is of Polish descent [279]

Amasing news

More and more foreigners want to live in Poland. Israeli citizens are leading the way

In 2024, over 23,000 foreigners filed applications to confirm Polish citizenship. The dominant group are Israeli citizens.

The largest number of applications, over 8 thousand, came from Israel. The next places were taken by Argentina and Great Britain. But that's not all. - From South America we have applications from practically every country, apart from Brazil and Argentina, these include Chile, Peru, Venezuela, Colombia, and a relatively large number from the small Guatemala. Next we have Mexico, of course the USA and Canada.

I wonder why Israelis dream of becoming Poles/Polesses. Is it somehow connected with their Nazi government who is engaged in genocide on Palestinians and decent Israelis can`t tolerate it ???

News / How will Trump's trade tariffs affect Poland? [74]

Comments in Polish liberal media on latest Trump`s decisions
Americans created their own opioid epidemic when the respected Sackler family, owners of Purdue Pharma, flooded the country with OxyContin, a supposedly non-addictive drug. Their lawyer was Rudy Giuliani, a Trump pal.

Tariffs were a bluff from the beginning for negotiations, or did Trump realize after the announcement that trade wars could end badly?

Well, someone told the idiot that the factories producing parts from Mexico would be closed, it could be similar with Canada

An orange clown jumps on stage shouting: peek-a-boo 25%!
The audience rejoices. And a moment later he jumps out shouting: peek-a-boo 0%!
And so on and so forth.

Preschoolers like this kind of fun. It will be like in the poem A monkey with a razor in the bath. First it will be happy, then sad and then the ox president will come and clean it up.

When I look at Trump, it seems to me that our Duda is not that bad after all.

News / Famous Poles die - your memories [112]

Song and film music composer, Wojciech Trzciński, died at 75. He was rather unknown to me but now when I look through the titles of his works I realise he made a lot of my fave hits.

One of them, made in 1980 -I wanna go out to the countryside sung by Urszula Sipińska, tells about an urban dweller who dreams of moving to an idyllic village.
I have been dreaming of it for decades, too, until I made it reality.

Only Polish subs

Is there still
a real green village somewhere,
smelling of flax?
With fields among the meadows,
with pots drying
upside down on fences?
With cottages among the fields
and with milk for the table,
with an iron that has a soul?
Let everyone go
where they want,
and I know my paths!
I want to go to the countryside,
where time has stopped in the fields;
I want to see my face in a still pond .
I want to go to the countryside, pick ripe cherries from the tree,
bake bread in a clay oven, maybe one last time.
etc

News / Referendum to decide about exotic immigrants in Poland [559]


No, most probably just decent people.

I can`t judge them yet coz I know too little about their case.

What media report is the following:

On Tuesday, January 28, the trial of five volunteers who helped migrants on the Polish-Belarusian border began in the district court in Hajnówka, Podlasie. The prosecutor's office accuses them of facilitating the stay of an Iraqi family and an Egyptian in Poland by delivering food and clothing to the forest, as well as transporting them "deep into the country". The case involved a 13-kilometer ride from the forest to the nearest city. The accused face up to five years in prison.


Stop licking his balls. It is unhygienic!

History / Differences between Poland and Russia [78]

Similarities also exist. E.g, Russians can be as crazy as Poles/Polesses.

E.g, In 1694, the Tsar Peter the Great organized a wedding for one of his jesters. Together with the highest state dignitaries, he rode behind the elegant carriage in which the newlyweds sat.

The procession consisted of unusual mounts for this type of ceremony: dogs, goats, pigs and bulls. All guests were required to wear clownish costumes: straw shoes, colorful dresses, wooden hats and squirrel and cat tails.

For three days straight they ate and drank. Alcohol flowed freely, and those who couldn't keep up with the pace of the partying lay under the tables in their own vomit.

History / Life in communist Poland - personal relations [503]

When we overtake Japan, we still have to chase Ireland with its 130.000 PPP GDP. It is possible coz Ireland was poor as a church mouse for most of 20th century but thanks to wise financial policies which attracted foreign capital, they achieved amasing results.

History / Life in communist Poland - personal relations [503]

In 1980, after famous anti-communist strikes, their leader, Lech Wałęsa, uttered famous words: We will build a second Japan here!!!

He was heavily ridiculed for it by communists as well as his political rivals in the opposition circles. But his prophecy became cult and I have read/heard thousands of references to it over years.

It seems his words are slowly becoming flesh.

The economic landscape in 2025, however, looks different. According to the International Monetary Fund, Poland's current GDP per capita, taking into account purchasing power parity, is $54.5 thousand. In Japan, this indicator is $54.91 thousand.
