USA, Canada / The long and proud links between Polish and American Muslims [20]

@NoToForeigners

I am afraid from legal point of view (as much we don't like this idea) Jon is correct. We are part of EU- if they hold German, French ,Swedish..... passport they can come and live in Poland any time.The same like Polish can move to Germany,France.....

With time, we can hope that both communities will grow, build new mosques and that their community will continue to go from strength and strength.

...and they 'lived happily ever after'- I think you should reduce intake of some drugs as they take you to some parallel ,fairy tale universe :-)

News / Reporter says she would trade 10 Polish lives if it helped thousands of immigrants [61]

I remember some people here saying that the refugees should be drowned.

Some probably did but I think these were emotional stupid statements.

They should be checked - and if they are chancers and economic migrants they should be detained and sent back.....But because of PC and very poor dealing with problem they are not.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]

Amusing that there are still people who read propaganda rags like GW.

From my observation the most balanced paper in UK is The Times. ( from right wing extremes like Daily Express or Daily Mail to rather left wing deluded Trotsky's Guardian).Does it exist equivalent to British Times it in Poland now?

To be honest I usually read Dziennik Polski when I am in Poland but it is rather local Krakow paper.

Life / Do you think that Polish people are rude? [951]

It looks that you have quite good opinion about Poles :-).

I am not sure about this self assurance. Maybe in Poland but on emigration lots of them lose lots of confidence and self assurance -unfortunately....

I think English people hate confrontation that is why when something needs to be told or resolved in a more direct way they struggle , get frustrated and that is when back stabbing starts. It is seems to be quite justified psychologically as human behaviour.

Of course it is generalisation-I also met quite a few direct , blunt people in UK.

Life / Do you think that Polish people are rude? [951]

but even little thing like ,when giving change in shop brits put it in customer hand not on counter as its custom in Poland.this polish way feel kinda rude to me now.

I have been living abroad for a few years but I have noticed it is changing - shop assistants in Poland started putting change in customer's hands. Not sure if it is effect of people who lived, travelled to UK who are slowly bringing this custom to Poland.

As I remember from old times polish shops had usually some small bowls when change was put in so it was not dropped on counter. I don't think it was rude just different- maybe showing reluctance to touch every customer?

Love / Why the Polish girls are not laughing? [22]

Laughing or smiling?

Probably cultural difference but from my observation (I live abroad) it is changing for better every year and people are more relaxed and smile more.

What I find irritating is this nervous laugh every 5 minutes that some British girl do. Sign of 'social restrain and nervousness' :-)
