    Hard working Poles...

    ...don't want to work - back home at least:
    http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/ne...name_page.html


    "POLAND is to allow thousands of Ukrainian and Russian workers into the country because of a massive labour shortage.

    And the deal is likely to be extended to Indian and Chinese workers.

    The decision comes after massive pressure from Polish employers who complained most of the available local workers had moved to the UK. "


    So if poorly paid Poles can come to Britain, where do all the 'lazy' Brits go to better themselves?

    provided the govt allows the economy to grow Poland will become the tiger economy of europe, by virtue of its size, its availability of skilled workers (most of who will return when the wages rise) now with International experience. The Uk has become too expensive and Germany France and Italy are caught up in stagnant prtotectionism.

            it is also a well known fact that Polish women are the most attractive in Europe.

            And they do nice beer.
            And sausages.

                  Its easier than Russian as they use latin alphabet. I think they also have a very explicit case system which I hear is more complex than russian cases, so I would imagine that for someone who only pseaks english it will be pretty difficult
