My wife snapped her Achilles tendon all was covered by the EHIC card, Investigation, xrays, consultants surgeon, they offered her an operation to repair it but we were due to go back to the uk, so they plastered her leg up and we drove back to the uk, funny thing was the UK didn't offer an operation to fix it, they said the risk of infection was high, so it was a case of 10 weeks in plaster, resetting foot position every few weeks, after all the hassle in the UK my wife wished she had the operation in Poland, recovery would be much quicker.

Krakow: 'defaced by the debauchery and drunkeness' of British stag parties

telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/poland/11243504/Krakow-defaced-by-the-debauchery-and-drunkeness-of-British-stag-parties.html

More Britons went to Krakow than any other nationality, making up 20 per cent of the 1,030,570 foreign visitors

Travel / Old town Krakow, is it dangerous during Night time? [42]

Apart from the drunkard stag parties Krakow is very safe at night, my wife and I have never had any problems walking around late at night.

Don't forget the Polish Police are well trained in dealing with trouble, this probably stems from their ex communist riot training.

But be warned If you ever take on a Polish Police dog they are trained to go for the testicles not your arm.

I'm sure that Krakow benefits from the stag do's, I don't want to blow things out of proportion, the rowdy types are in the minority, but also I spend allot of time in the summer taking my visitors to see the sights and the night life, so I guess i get to see the odd rowdies more regularly than a casual weekend visitor would.

Still a great place to go to for a weekend.

As for the Police comment, yes it's best to keep out of the way if you can.

"What has that got to do with preventing terrorism"

Once these laws are passed many countries law enforcement agencies use them as the would any other law.

Example from the UK below.

Anti-terror laws 'used to spy on Plebgate journalists' Source the Daily Mail.

I trust that Poland will only use the law as quoted "expel foreigners considered to pose a threat to national security"

This could apply foreigners who wish to undermine or overthrow the democratically elected government of Poland
