Having read the interviews Joanna Gulbinska had with Max Kolonko and Janusz Wiśniewski on opnia.co.uk and leicesterview.co.uk I am interested to know how accurate Kolonko's comments about England and young poles are

If you provide the exact link I could comment - but a general link to a newspaper doesn't help.

The interviews were in the interviews section leicesterview.co.uk/wywiady.php

the Kolonko interview main part was at leicesterview.co.uk/artykuly/homepage/82

and the Wiśniewski main part was at

leicesterview.co.uk/artykuly/homepage/88

In the Kolonko interview he was asked "There has been a new wave of emigration recently, especially to England and other European countries which allow people to work freely and legally. What advice would you have to young Poles thinking of working abroad?"

This was an interesting bit:

In Poland, envy I meet all the time. Poles can be envy of your house, girlfriend, success, money, a car, a dog, anything. Then we go to church and ask God for forgiveness. Then we come back and love sit at a computer desk and under some anonymous nickname we slander anybody for anything. That Poland I'm not proud of at all.

Sound familiar?
