your dead right Daisy, totally agree with this point, its not about nationality its about individual personality, when will people wake up and see this!!!!

Yeah now there's a whole other debate opened up right there, RELIGION is the source of most of the wars in history, either linked to, religious beliefs or other elements of religion.

I don't need to list some examples because i'm sure you are all aware of what i mean. Imagine, NO RELIGION, less wars, however its true that if we not waring over Religion it will be about something else.

Just stop for a second and see how ridiculous this all is, we have been waring for centuries over a few fairy tails written by a few people who were bored and as good at telling stories as Terry Prattchet and Steven King.

I could right on and on about Religion and the negative affects on human life and culture but really there would be to much to write :)

Small town mentality some people here need to grow up, it doesn't matter where you live you can be a racist if you live in London which is not small or somewhere like wellington, UK, which is very small.

I'm sorry that your friends were attacked but don't start pointing fingers at disgruntled locals who are BNP supporters, there just easy targets.

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

this attack was in which country??? and do you know it was racially motived or just a random attack, mugging etc??

Best wishes to your friends, i hope they make a full recovery

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

it's ok, misunderstandings can happen when you only see the words and maybe read them quickly, i was saying that maybe this is the impression people could get of the polish if they read posts by people like Ola and Lef.

Language / Is the term 'Polak' derogatory?? [254]

ok thanks for the heads up, i just wasn't sure :)

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

ok i understand your position, but please don't blame me for somebody taking my words and using them out of the context that they were meant.

You can clearly see when i first wrote them, why i used them and in what context :)

we've now gone from British to English, The Scotch and the Irish party just as hard!!!!! with feet in both camps (English, Scottish) i do know

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

puzzler i'm not really sure on your position on this issue are you agreeing with people like Lef and Ola or are you of a different opinion?

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

If somebody was naive enough they could believe that Poland is a country where the people are, up their own backsides, imperialists, nazi's, jealous, bitter and many other things due to the posts of a few lame excuses for people.

It's good that there are people on here who counteract this content so keep it up Justyna and other supporting Poles :)

hahaha thats one of the funniest things i've heard you say, lol, nice one :)

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

Good point Justyna, i find it rather ironic that a Pole should have such views on foreigners and wanting them out of their country. I don't understand the problem that the polish sometimes have with the UK, USA etc, i'm sorry if i ruffle a few feathers here but do i smell jealousy??

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

Its British humor, instead of slagging her off we offer up some good old humor to the situation :)

Not as low as OLA has been lately!!

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

Being from Europe, England, myself and my country come into your bracket of foreigners. If you think about the EU lef, then you will clearly see that botht he UK and Poland are supposed to benefit from the relationship.

There are thousands upon thousands of Polish coming to this country (Which i am totally happy with by the way) so the UK is and has a right to have something in return, if this means setting up any type of business in Poland then so be it. It stops the EU relationship from been one sided to the main member states, France, Uk, Spain, Germany etc etc.

If the Polish want freedom to enter our country then they should be prepared to pay in kind

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

Well she clearly has a problem, either against British people or just non-polish people in general. I hate it when people make statements or produce arguments with absolutely no evidence or accuracy with what they are saying.

Don't get me wrong i'm no stranger to controversy but at least i can form an argument around sensible and accurate points instead of just slandering like the Sun newspaper would do.

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

OLA you seriously need to take a lesson in British people and our culture before forming your inaccurate opinions. Stop branding people and grow up, if you've got a problem at least form a decent argument with accurate information without slandering a whole nation.

hay the country of Nepal were some of the best fighters in the second world war, the Gurkha's so i'm not surprised if things get a bit tough!!!

UK, Ireland / Warning to British people visiting Poland!! Don't get drunk and smash the place up! [447]

RIGHT,

I can understand that there are some British people who go to poland for a stag night and get drunk etc etc. This isa massive generalisation and stereotype and to express it on this forum was totally your choice and your entitled to your opinion. However i think you are way of the mark and for your information its probably only a small percentage of British visitors to your country.

I have a lot of things that i think the Polish could improve on when visiting, living and working in my country but i don't make sweeping statements as there are only pockets of individuals that do the things that annoy me.

I'm not asking for an apology because i wouldn't expect one as it seems clear to me that your antaganising the polish population by warning us British away from Poland. NOT ALL people who go on holiday are going to behave themselves this includes Polish, British or any nation you care to mention.

As for the POLISH NOT DRINKING, that is absolute rubbish, I have been with polish people when they are drinking, i've had to help bouncers remove polish people and even had to carry a polish girl out of the club because she was so inebriated from the alcohol consumption. I don't mind its just what happens when people drink sometimes but please don't slander the British for something people of your country do just as well!!!

I'm not trying to brand the Polish in anyway what so ever but i am trying to point out the dangers of having such a narrow minded point of view

News / What is wrong with Poland that Poles emigrate? [167]

i don't need to read any of the posts, to put it simply there is nothing wrong with Poland as a whole, every nation has their problems and Poland is no difference, but to come and ask what is wrong with an individual country i find bemusing.
