@jon357 Can you f*cking imagine how Poles would react if this was a story here about a Ukrainian girl harming little Polish dzieci? There'd be a f*cking pogrom.
Konfederacja is against uncontrolled mass immigration, but not against immigration itself. Considering you come from the UK, you are relatively progressive; there are no right-wing parties anymore in the UK.
@Ironside Tories are right of centre, Reform are waaay right. Even the Labour party are fairly right of centre now - most people call them 'red Tories' now. On the Polish scale though, yeah most of them are lefter than we would consider them. But then many Poles would call Pinochet a hippie ;P
Officer caught stuffing pair of pink knickers in pocket during police search
PC Marcin Zielinski can be seen rifling through a woman's underwear drawer on a secret camera hidden behind some children's toys. Unaware he is being filmed Zielenski, 47, looks away before going back in to the drawer, scrunching up a pink pair of panties and shoving them in his back pocket. He then sharply exits the room. Zielinski resigned from the force while under investigation in November 2024
He was sentenced to four months in prison this week after admitting to the theft.
Not in the UK but next door. Hard to imagine the mentality of someone who does that:
[Krzysztof Daczkowski, 50, was discovered in the landing of his home near Finglas, Co Dublin, Ireland, on Saturday night, close to the body of his five year old daughter Julia Daczkowska.
Gardai suspect that the bus driver strangled his daughter to death in her bedroom and then took his own life. Julia's mother, Aga, returned home from work to find them both dead on Saturday evening mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/breaking-dad-who-killed-daughter-35983274
Hard to imagine the mentality of someone who does that
Sounds a lot like a family destroyer scenario... (Men who kill most or all of their immediate family and then kill themselves). It seems to be a horribly misplaced sense of compassion (they want to die but imagine their families won't be able to survive without them).
psychology seems bizarre. The steps that could lead someone to doing that
This is an intro.... I'm not saying for certain that's what happened in the Irish case but it could be (but why didn't he kill his wife? not that I think he should have but it's not part of the pattern)
Other possibilities could be related to emerging mental illness (he's a bit old for schizophrenia to start) some other kind of psychotic break or they both could have been killed by someone else....
This one tickled me. She actually sounds quite fun, though probably hard work.
A woman who branded herself UK's "poshest thief" stole £12,000 worth of Sainsbury's booze - but has walked free despite having evaded prison for a previous spree.
Notorious Pauline Al Said, 35, a former lecturer at Bath Spa University, rocketed to fame in 2024 when she was convicted of stealing more than £1,000 of Le Creuset cookware, wine, gin and premium steaks
And best of all, she
has launched a website through which she offers "life and career mentoring",
