Spot on. And not very Arian... What hit me more is the stereotypical look of a guy who cares more about his muscles than about gray matter.
He should become a poster boy for all anti AfD campains :)
you look a bit Turkish/Arab

And others know they will be better off independent... Someone's family preferences are not really an argument to either side.
As to which side would win...hard to tell but somehow I don't think they will leave the union
My point is that he and his family know full well that Scotland is far better off as part of the UK

Life / Typical Polish house and family [46]
Frankly speaking I prefer Polish style of drinking to UK one with being completely drunk as the goal and most having 'warm up' drinks. For Pete's sake- I'm going out to have that drink with my friends.
While Poles drink quite a lot the times of getting hammered with a bottle of wòdka are going into the past.

And while you may think you are neutral it's clear by your posts how negative you are about Poland and Poles.
Why? They have what? One MP?

@ Weimarer
Again- they can blame their government . If your country starts war then yes- people will suffer. But it's not the same as being the victim of agression.
But no, noone really believes they will get any money

Didn't you hear? Apparently they needed access. It our fault for not saying 'Oh welcome, do as you please ' :D
If he is the sample of the future of AfD then I really wonder who votes for them.
Why should Poland allow a violation of its territorial integrity?

Wow!!! Really?!! How can we, as a nation, show you our gratitude?...
The difference being that it was your country that started it, attacked and killed and robbed.

I sometimes think it's the UK roads that are responsible for better driving- the roads are so narrow most of the time it's almost single lane. You have no choice but to be careful :)

Driving is awful in Poland, that is true. As to the specifics- not so much in my experience. I don't know about Warsaw but in my area people drive normally in rain and snow and people don't stop in the middle of the road. More likely they will block the footpath.

While the market for second hand car is better in UK( bigger pay plus smaller market) I don't think you could win with Germans being right there behind the border with cars adjusted to our traffic arrangements . Plus you are looking at Brexit and any tariffs that may cause.

It seems Lufthansa behaves like a big baby. Why punish LOT if they were denied due to monopoly? It wasn't LOT forbidding them.
And while as a client you can of course choose the airline of your choice it's not an argument in the bigger picture

If there is something wrong with those lists all the KRS decisions are under question not to mention that our head of state, defender of the constitution broke the law. And we are supposed to leave it to such people to create standards? No thanks.

@Rich
More and more people decide not to have kids or want remain single. And they are saying it loudly and clearly. Dropping birth rate would suggest that more and more people don't see having kids as their life's goal.
I wouldn't go that far but if you add this to it:
It starts to point in that direction

Because it makes a mockery of marriage.
