History / The heroic jump of the 1st Polish Independent Paratrooper Brigade [81]


You are right B B. if you actually take look at the composition of the gov, it stacks up quite well even against countries that do not fall into the Greek category. I find Poles in general love to dump on their gov, even though they usually know very little about it.

I can name the whole cabinet, and their qualifications and i follow the media and papers avidly and i studied politics before, in short I would say yes i am.

I can also name the entire British cabinet as well as the shadow cabinet and i also follow the UK media.

I bet you can't ( not without doing research) and by the way i was originally born in Poland and speak the language.

Another thing that Poles and Scots have in common is highlanders.

It is the qualifications that matter, he is a citizen in both countries. Had his parents stayed in Poland he would probably not be alive right now.

What has my age anything to do with this argument? And no, i am not 18. And what do you mean by 'you know nothing about Poles in Great Britain after 1945.' Completely of topic and irrelevant.

Where? and why?

In Poland: 1989 certainly the most important, maybe followed by 16 October 1978.

Personally i think it will be a sad day. a very sad descent for the once mighty British Empire, the country that in Niall Ferguson's words made the modern world.

News / Komorowski, acting president, is a shower! [51]


You have got to be joking right?


Indeed, Focking unbelievable. If he gets in again it is going to be a focking disaster.

News / Komorowski, acting president, is a shower! [51]

He is able to keep his nerve, he does not feel pressure and he demolished Sikorski in a debate. In contrast to Komorowski, who appeared extremely relaxed, Sikorski appeared extremely nervous, at one stage he had a nervous twitch just below his eye.

some of them yes, not all of them, many sided with him.


Was in fact a better soldier and strategist than Napoleon.

here is a bit of Napoleonic grandiloquence.

News / Polska A ['educated'] scoffs at Lech Kaczynski [24]


I am Polish and have to agree, people mourn him because he is the representative of the people and most certainly not for his achievements when president.


I think they have just as much rights as anybody else to express their opinions, if they live in, and contribute to the country to all intents and purposes they can consider themselves Poles if they want to.

That is because the Poles were changing from a conscript to a professional army, and instead of spending it on useless additional foot soldiers, it can now be directed on better equipment. honestly you should try to think before you wright!

UK, Ireland / Polish immigrants in the UK - victims or criminals?! [128]


I wouldn't believe him, fact is after reading several newspaper articles and listening to some MP's speeches, there is a far greater native criminal element than among Polish migrants. what you are probably witnessing is an inferiority complex from the former 'working class', who now no longer work and express their inferiority through racism.

History / Poles in the Napoleonic era [224]


He had a smaller army that is why, he managed to destroy Napoleon's cavalry simply by moving his troops back over a hill, that is how competent Napoleon was.

He was a lot more careful with the lives of his soldiers, and yes it is a given that he was a better strategist, he would have never undertaken the Stupid Russian venture.

Disgusting hypocrites, only a few days ago he was eulogizing what a great man the president was, whilst making such scandalous accusations against his party, BUT WAIT THAT IS NOT EVEN THE BOTTOM OF THE BARREL. Read THIS!

conservativehome.com//leftwatch/2010/03/labour-candidate-gives-nazi-salute-as-he-lazily-smears-tory-allies-in-europe.html

Absolutely unbelievable, how can this Labour lowlife get away with this? why isn't he done for defamation! i wish somebody would make a big issue out of this preferably somebody who lives in the constituency, disrupt his every meeting and confront him with his lie! If i lived in the country i would be relentless hounding him right up to polling day, I've tried contacting his office but the scum is ignoring me, he uses his mother as a secretary.

This is a warning to everyone, if you are Polish do not vote Labour, they have a track record of baiting Poles. If you look at their history they instigated the unionists to prevent military supplies being shipped to Poland during the Bolshevik war. They prevented the Poles from marching during the Victory Day, never vote Labour!

They will have to lose for that to happen. At the moment, I hope I am wrong but that doesn't seem likely.

He had an opportunity of ousting Brown earlier, but the guy is a coward with no real life experience, remember the banana incident?

News / Michał Kamiński - referred to not by name on the UK Leaders Debate but ... [47]


Did you read the comments made by the Labour candidate in the Cambridge Union debate I've posted above, (its on video you can listen to him saying it)? Complete lies, I wonder if he did that out of ignorance or maliciousness.

So just in case anybody who comes across this post don't vote for Daniel Zeichner, he is a Liar and a racist!

News / Polish, non-speakers told to bring interpreters to municpal buildings [7]

Yes, i think it is probably for practical purposes, though ideally yes there should be someone there who speaks English and maybe French as well.

Maybe his manner, but the guy has been caught red handed. There is so much misinformation about that speech that i wouldn't know were to begin.

News / Michał Kamiński - referred to not by name on the UK Leaders Debate but ... [47]

Not only that, but his mixing of countries. He took the supposed actions of a Latvian party and attributed them to a Polish political party. If i were a candidate, that publicly said that the Labour party are a bunch of child abusers, I wonder what would the reaction be like.

News / Michał Kamiński - referred to not by name on the UK Leaders Debate but ... [47]


It is a carelessness born out of contempt, there is no way he would have made that comment about the US Republicans for instance, even if true!

I urge everyone to join the Daniel Zeichner should apologize facebook page. I would also advise if you feel like it, to contact him personally, he has his own website, Google his name. I have tried contacting him, but unfortunately he shields himself with his elderly mother

whenever i ring his office.


JOIN THE FACEBOOK PAGE I RECOMMENDED OR CONTACT HIM PERSONALLY, SEE ABOVE. SPREAD THE MESSAGE, MAYBE YOU MIGHT KNOW SOMEBODY WHO LIVES IN HIS CONSTITUENCY, SEE IF THEY CAN HARASS HIM, THIS IS RIGHTEOUS ANGER, HE SHOULD NOT GET AWAY WITH THIS!

No chance, though i love the idea, though who knows maybe Millaband?

So here is the appeal to all interested living in Cambridge or near by, do everyone a service by pieing Zeichner, and than proceeding to read his comment back at him, you will liven up the election i assure you.

I know he was involved with banking, but i don't think he actually founded the bank.
