Life / Do colored immigrants in Poland function better than in Western countries? [295]


It's clear that your much mentioned ignore list is just a fantasy.


So one Teacher with extreme views that you found on a r*SSian fake news site somehowhas to be listened to, and the rest who are fine with the status quo are ignored.

You should maybe stick to issues in your own continent, not least since you've never been to Berlin and have no context about it other than what you read online.

Nor do you have a valid viewpoint on migration in Poland since you don't live in PL, aren't a citizen and don't speak the language. Migrants from around the world who've settled in Warsaw, speak the language and have taken citizenship (there are a few of us here) have more to say than someone who loves Poland so much they live thousands of miles away.

Too foreign. The Red Flag and the Warszawianka are both better, especially the Red Flag.

If not to and for the people, then to and for whom?

To the people.


He's a right-winger however he's a relatively benign one.

It's more interesting.. Polish politics is a circus.

I remember a few times hearing typical korpo office monkeys talking about minute details, more trivial than party members would gossip about elsewhere.

As long as Konfa perish and SLD do well, I don't much care.

Yes, alcohol again today.

A nice-ish song by James. About as near to rock as I'll go, and better than anything Polish.


He has youth on his side, and rather a lot of ambition. Sikorski deserves a go first though.


If you want to avoid being called a drunken cúnt, don't behave with your elders and betters as if you were with a class of ten year olds. Tu comprends?

Food / Polish food vs Ukrainian food [31]

Millions in Ukraine grow their own food on their dachas.

Poland too, however there are more big supermarket chains in PL and more fruit and veg imported from polytunnels in the Netherlands.

Learn some manners.

And drink less before posting.


Forget how?

That's how it is nowadays.


My choice too; he has the credibility on the world stage and would be a safe and pragmatic pair of hands.

A fake news site, run by r *SSians.


How many?

And why would internal matters regarding Berlin City Council reported on some dodgy website interest you?

Who does that? Nobody.


They obsess on it, despite both being migrants themselves.

We were talking about the English, not the Polish you posted. You missed the nuances.

London is fairly affordable outside the centre. Spends where you are.

And their thousands of employees in Poland, plus the farmers around Suwałki who sell to them. A longstanding British company too.


100x. He forgets that some of us have spent time in bot(.


Not really for cigs unless it's some dodgy internet thing. Where I am when I'm in England, if you ask for cigs at a small shop, they give you ones with a wonky typeface on the packet for about a quarter of the normal price.

We all like a nice salad and some fruit.

More likely because it's cool compared to most of the MENA region and family friendly.


I don't think many of them are Sheiks.


They don't have a strong smell and in any case are out in the desert chewing bushes.

Quite.

Booting just means to kick or to kick out, depending on context.

It's rare though. To give someone the boot is more normal, though there's no implication of boot prints.

In London they filter the gold and other precious elements out.


Loved by some and increasing in number.

I don't know if anyone voted on that issue, however the 'war on drugs' that conservative and puritanical elements in America pushed and tried to persuade others to take part in failed wretchedly.


I think I dated him once.

Practical policy. Its impact is small, it costs nothing, it helps to ease ongestion and it rewards users of greener transport.


Sadly, we've had 14 years of Tory hell. There's a lot of libertarian fantasy that needs repairing.

There's a good system there that some cities have introduced to reduce congestion; on certain roads, a lane is reserved for cars with two or more people in. That works, however the trend towards working at home may change that.

Travel / Road traffic - Emergency lane use [23]


Why would we do that? Did medieval peasants have electric cars and first class publicly owned public transport?


Giving an incentive for clean cars and taking some traffic off the ordinary lane is a good policy.

Love / Polish - Pakistani relationship. How it works in reality? Are Pakistanis a good men? [85]


That suggests a serious issue with the mother who isn't mentioned much and has a right to privacy.

She should never have slipped through the net however that's what happens when you have hardly any Social Workers or Educational Welfare Officers just so the already wealthy can get a tax break and be even wealthier.

That and a family who have a lot to conceal and are good at concealing things.

They don't, but clean quiet traffic in Europe is a good aim.


There's a lot of emotion in it, however in the UK we could cut down on a lot of waste and improve transport.
