British people in Spain,France or Portugal never learn the language of their hostess, practice what you preach I would say
manboobs wealth?
This is an old idea that there are all rich Anglos who are hanging in Espana. There are almost 950,000 Brits in Spain and 2/3 of them are of lower middle class working at restaurants, hotels, bars, clubs, etc and in addition to this most of them don't even try to speak native languages of Spain but still Spaniards don't complain about them.
Above all I can't believe that the Brits who get immigrants from all over the world have some problems with some Poles. I thought Brits were the most sensible people in Europe since late eighteenth century.
I always try to speak the language of any country I visit the problem is often the locals don't allow u 2

LOL BS... I have British family as neighbors, they on unemployment for years. Never have seen them work or go to work, but yet got 4 kids and very nice cut from the government. So fuck off Gabrielle and stop talking out of your ass because it stinks.

Poles crying about racism is probably the most ironic thing I've heard all year.
is it? when have Poles ever been racist

Brits have no right to complain about foreigners while they're building ghettos in Spain- filled with pensioners who refuse to learn Spanish and leach off the sun and medical-care.
I say this as an English person who emigrated to Norway, I've yet to meet another British person who made an honest effort to learn Norwegian- this is a story that is repeated all over the world: no matter the language; no matter the country.
Fuck off
@@anthonyperkins7556 My god, you really do redefine "eloquence", don't you? Surely I have no choice other than to surrender to your witty repartee and superior debating skills.

You speak of a few people not the entire British citizen. Im quite sure we are not the only ones who do what you speak of. Human nature doesnt differ a great deal from one country to another.
How does one 'leech' of the sun you massive idiot?
Lmao
Too all Polish people wanting to leave GB. You're more than Welcome in the Netherlands.

for now at least,, they dont wake up one morning and think i must go to the netherlands and help the dutch people, they are there for themselves. if we went to there country in the numbers they have gone to other countries they would likely riot in the streets.
I came back. My daughter, born not in Poland, did not want to stay abroad anymore. We are back in Warsaw and happy.
Its good, Polish people feel best in Poland
so why'd you leave poland in the first place??
Come to China, Chinese people love polish people and treat polish people very very good.
you did not need to dont believe the media they lie we voted for other reasons nothing to do with eastern europeans you are family in my eyes we are the same
Dead Shot Don't you even dare speak to her like that.
don't forget to close the door when you all leave
It's already happening we want the invaders to leave they are leaving #brexit stop and closing the doors
Colin the Racist
Hmm what race pls explain Polish a race think not
Polish people aren't a separate race Stoufer. :)
OK, Comment from a bygone era, Colin the ethnicityist didn't have the same ring. Main point being, not sure why anyone would want to be impolite to the Poles, let alone want them to leave. They are pretty much hard working, family orientated, decent, friendly people like most of the other europeans I have met (few exceptions but not generally Polish). Comments on here have been pretty shitty in general and most people I know are pretty embarrassed by the current situation especially given that they are very much a part of the community in East Anglia where I live.
As a 70 year old Brit it makes me sad to listen to these Polish people. I was shocked and disappointed when I heard the referendum result as I knew it was going to spell trouble and I wasn't wrong. Brexit certainly emboldened the racists and xenophobes so I wasn't surprised to hear what the Polish ladies said. It's not only Polish people being told to "go back to your own country", even some black and Asian people have received the same treatment. That some have been born here doesn't cross the mind of the bigoted racists who can't get their heads around that.
I've spent years touring European countries, mainly Eastern and Poland was always a favourite. Whichever country I was in I would try to learn a few basic words but Polish is extremely difficult. Most young Polish speak English and a few older too though I never expect it from Polish people in my age group. Britains connections with Poland go back to ww2 when Germany had invaded Poland and we declared war. Young Polish lads who had managed to escape to UK were eager to join the armed forces and we had a number of RAF Polish fighter squadrons. Many sacrificed their lives to keep Hitler from our front door, yet now Brits (some) are telling them to "go back to your country" or demand they speak English when talking with their family members.
I understand why they are deciding to return.......i'm not happy about the reasons and it makes me feel ashamed that Britons could do this to other people. What will become of this country I dread to think as what i'm seeing now is not good and had I been younger, i'd have left years ago as i'm sick and tired of the race hate and xenophobic insanity.
Well, when you have no control over who comes here, and bad apples come in as well as the good, and having no rights to stop or deport them as Australia does, is it any wonder Brits turn on them?
The Poles leaving the UK? Good this way! No Pole should live in the country of a nation that denies the betrayal of 1939 and, in addition, impudently demands gratitude from Poland despite this betrayal.

Dear Poland,
You are more then welcome in the Republic of Ireland, many of you live here already and we really appreciate you guys.
Love Èire.
I'm planning to go to Irland to learn english.
OMG, I was watching anti-polish videos. I found so many kind Irish comments like: "we are with you Poland" or "you're always welcome here".
Love from Poland to Ireland 🇵🇱❤️🇮🇪

Thanks Ciara
You are arrogant enough to speak for the whole of Ireland? Didn't a far right party just storm through the polls in Ireland.?
Dear Eire with ONLY four million population and agriculture as your main income then sure you welcome immigration until your over populated like the UK and your OWN unskilled start moaning!.

Greetings Hungarian friends 😀!
Hello from the romanian neighour. I respect you, but not respect Orban. THe dirt under my shoes get more respect from me then this pro-russian dirtbag
So interesting. Racism without colorism. I grew up admiring Poles, due to a city called Hamtramck (in Detroit, MI), because they had businesses, neat, modest neighborhoods, a high work ethic.
My first job, at a retail store, my seniors were Polish women who treated my like a daughter. Right? They would fuss and me and correct me and minutes later, they are not mad at me. They just wanted the work done correctly.
They really helped me learn the ropes. I wish I could have spent more time with them and gotten to know them on a more personal level. They were a postive influence in Southern MI.
My grandma like the Poles because they worked hard and there stores were clean. I don't remember sensing that my Blackness was a problem to them.
Greetings from Hungary! We love you all!
I am Spanish and I feel the same as all the Polish people in the video. Fortunately to me I live in a community where everyone is welcome, but I faced hatred in my previous job because I was not local, and this caused me stress. Brexit has left us, all Europeans, in anxiety and very sad as we are not welcome anymore.
why don't you go to your own people instead of being a burder and nuisance in this country
You've experienced racism as a spaniard, hard to believe?!
@@barrylyndon80 I was told in my office, in front of a lot of people, that it was a relief that Brexit happened because they could finally get rid of people like me. When I escalated to my line manager, I was told that I was overreacting and I didn´t understand local humour.
Brits he hating Spaniards if every single one goes on holiday there
The Poles leaving the UK? Good this way! No Pole should live in the country of a nation that denies the betrayal of 1939 and, in addition, impudently demands gratitude from Poland despite this betrayal.
To all those saying "assimilate!, Learn English!" - did Brits finally assimilate and learn the languages of countries they invaded hundreds of years ago? Have all those Brits that bought houses and settled in Spain learned to at least say 'hi' in Spanish? I don't think so.
You all think you're so great, and can look at immigrants from above, yet, most of the negative comments come from uneducated Brits that live off child benefits and tax credits. We're not stupid. Most Poles are educated and sooner or later will learn that there's no place like home. Once that happens, you're in big trouble. It's already starting to happen. Thousands of Poles are flooding the borders, but this time it's on the way out. Peace and love to you ✌️

You do realise we've also been invaded many times and the english language itself has changed as a result. Or does your biased history knowledge not go that far? 😂
wherever you live, there always is some kind of discrimination. even if you live in your own country. I'm polish, I lived in Poland, Japan for 10 years, UK, Ireland, Australia. Every single country faces migration and problems related. get used to it guys, the world is changing.
btw, I really love you Irish people, you rock!
What argument? What is not the same?
non-whites? should not discriminate? sorry mate, I don't discuss with internet trolls. Bless!
@Emile O'Neill I find Irish people cute. You tend to react very strongly to everything which makes the interaction interesting.
i like you poles .i had two polish women living with me very sexy
.
Here in America Poles have no problem assimilating. They are law abiding , hard working people. Here in Chicago we have over 2 million Poles . Their neighborhoods are clean and prospering .The second generation Poles are already fully integrated.
Probably because Britain treats them like outsiders, so it becomes harder to "become British".
In Ireland the Polish people speak with Irish accents lol
Yes, the Poles here assimilate. There are plenty of comments from people in the UK who do not hate Poles.
+ Lana S: Thank you for your neutral and positive comment about the Poles in USA:-))))) Have a good day :-))))))))))

Lana S assimilation means becoming the same. the fact you refer to them as poles indicates they are still separate and not assimilated.
Why has brexit made all these people immediately think we don't want them there are many more issues than poles around brexit get over yourselves.
Because it's made everyone think that you are a bunch of small minded jerks. I don't want to live here anymore with you biggotted racists but unfortunately I'm english
Who is 'everyone', stoufer? I can only assume that you mean people who share your views, in which case that is not everyone and thus makes YOU the bigot by lack of understanding.
Sorry my fault, meant to say 'with half a brain cell'... Not quite sure what there is to understand about racist physical and verbal attacks on hard working decent people.
Oh, well my half a brain cell was clearly good enough to achieve a history degree so I'm sure it helped me make the right decision ticking the 'leave' box also.

Poles in New York City, not a problem. Albanians moved into the north Bronx and in less than ten years started as building superintendents and now run hundreds of businesses. CoViD threw a wrench in the works, but if the Brits don't want you, then come to New York.

ikr... the country who mess the Middle east and enslaved the world
Bora Gamerz Yes because the middle east doesn't deserve to live terrorists.
Yes because Britain is the only nation with a history like that... A country that gave the world the internet, trains and modern industrial civilization but yes, we are the bad ones. All countries have committed horrible crimes in their existence, Britain is not exempt from that at all. However this country is far from the worst. Our nation has raised countries from tribalism into modern life, it has helped create the foundation for the international cooperation through the creation of the UN, the Commonwealth and other institutions. We have made mistakes as have all other nations, but do not dismiss the opinion of the majority of British people when they say they want immigration to slow down massively due to the crimes of the past. If we used your logic then China should be destroyed by the Koreans, Tibetans and Uyghurs? Turkey should be swamped by Kurds, Jews and Armenians? The entire middle east should be swamped with Jews, Christians and Hindus for the crimes the Arabs have committed against them? Your logic is shit and you obviously only say such things to be a virtue signalling piece of shit.

To be honest I don't have many problems with Polish people they at least seem to want to work and have in the main same cultural beliefs. I'm more terrified of third world immigrants with their backwards beliefs and customs coming to the UK demanding changes
Exactly. But the BBC want to blow things out of proportion, as usual.
Weren't due to any international foreign country like America declaring war on them, that Eastern European nations don't pay much for jobs, they don't even meet their NATO requirements whereas the uk does and so they come here and exploit this. Also one famous example of an Eastern European serial killer- probably the UK's most historically famous serial killer ever is jack the ripper (who was a polish immigrant).
Lmfao something funny u have found out is that all 3 of you guys likely aren't even British!
First guy explicitly states that English is his fifth language
Second guy is an American

People come to Britain for one main reason. Money.
How about the crumpets then.
Not even crumpets. People in other country have better food and weather than us! It's just the money guys. Pound was strong
+yasmin khatun
Now the pound is weak, and now poles are feeling discriminated against XD. So ironic right, lol!
If the pound had been at parity with the euro, there would have been far fewer people coming to the UK to work. I see them every day at the post office, sending money back to their home countries. It wont be as easy to send as much cash back now the pound is weaker.
***** Sure, taking money out of the economy "has no effect"... I see roles of notes being sent back daily. £100's sent back by scores of people and that's just in my local post office. It happens all over. An average British worker would have spent that in the UK economy.
My partner works in a shop and she tells me she sees the Polish everyday. They buy the cheapest food apparently. Subsist on as little as possible. Around where a relative of mine lives, there's a 2 bedroom house with 6 poles living there. All men. All working.
You can't say anything against the Poles work ethic. They are good workers. They aren't here to make Britain a richer or better place though. If we had currency equality, or a weaker currency than the Euro, you would see hardly any of them. I don't have anything against them personally, but if you think millions of economic migrants entering a country in a short period of time has no negative impact, you're dreaming.
So when Englishmen travels to Spain and other destinations for vacation, they must remember NOT to speak english, but the native language of the country they're visiting... That must be the obvious conclusion to the claim of speaking english while in England...
Vacation ISN'T the SAME as LIVING in ANOTHER country PLUS if i'm travelling on vacation i'm SPENDING money which IS giving locals WORK.
I Don't go to another country and TAKE a job that an Unskilled LOCAL person could do.

holiday is different to them living here.
they still chose not to learn the langue as they live with family's and all talk in their own langue and the only ones that learn our langue is the younger ones
I work in a factory and they chose not to speak or learn so when you explain something to them you got to repeat it a number of times or in a tone they understand. maybe the racists go out and say that but all I say is its a shame they got to leave but we simply never had the room and its not fair to have this kind of situation where family's are homeless because there is nothing for them
@@theblackbaron2375 Dude, I'm sure you have met people unable to or even unwilling to learn the language. Perhaps they get the job done anyway and everything works out fine. I remember a bloke who had worked in a lot of hotels cleaning for instance who didn't speak English but it had never been a problem.
But... You also show a grave ignorance. You have literally commented on a video where an elderly women who speak totally fins English talks about speaking her daughter in their native language in a private conversation and get's told by a stranger that they must speak English and still you say
"they still chose not to learn the langue as they live with family's and all talk in their own langue and the only ones that learn our langue is the younger ones "
Mate, the exact video shows an instance of the exact contrary and still this is what you comment? Do you not see the ignorance in that?
@@DanielLiljeberg the video is two yrs old and why assume I remember it then attack my reasonable comment? if you live somewhere you should be able to at least understand stuff, not speak but understand stuff especially at work which is what my comment was not walking around a town. because i couldn't give a fuck if they walk round town talking a different langue but i do care when people go up to them in town and say "you are in England so speak the langue" "go back where you came from" that stuff is not okay
funny, when we came to Australia all these years ago, when we had our first son, my wife used to speak to the baby in Polish ( cos we knew that as soon when he goes to school he will learn the second language very quickly) and then a lady ( Aussie) asks my wife , how can the baby understand a different language? so I have no doubt that a lot of these bloggers on this site , have a similar intelligence, hence the silly comments.

MermaidOnline bigotry is bigotry no matter what race
I didn't say it wasn't bigotry. Read what I wrote again. You seem to have missed my point entirely.
It's quite the opposite, they're the easiest to blame exactly because they are the most similar. Otherwise it would be 'racist'.
Most poles make little to no effort to integrate with the British. They come to the UK for work and/or free health and social care.
Poland has a 97% white polish population whereas the percentage of white people living in Britain is around 87% and of the 56 million inhabitants almost 1 million of them are Polish.
Of course it's white British people that are racist though isn't it.

Nationalism coming from people in a country that for centuries enriched itself from forced colonization, expropriation of raw materials and slave labor all over the globe. Ask them to share an infinitesimal fraction of that wealth and they throw a fit of indignation.
lunhil12 bravo great comment
Yeah, "for centuries"... Those centuries stopped about about 150 years ago. The UK is not the wealthy, powerful empire it once was and we cannot afford to finance every other person in the world. We have limited and diminishing resources that need to be shared among UK nationals first, before we start to concern ourselves with the nationals of every other nation. Would you feed the neighbour's son and see your own son starve as a result? Of course not, you put your own first and it's time we put UK nationals first.
WOW! Another moron who forgets that shit too place centuries ago, but fails to talk about the Germans having another crack at Europe for the 3rd time in 100 years!

You should only move to a country if you have to for marriage or you have studied and want a better paying career. Mabey im missing something but why would you move to a country that pays more but is 4x more expensive to live? That doesnt make sence. Every country is the same if you dont have money then the ratio of living standard is pretty much similar everywhere in the west. Thats a reason why people are leaving its about money or lack of in uk.

Many English folks drunk every day, do mess, even do not know what recycling means and work for minimal wages, here. But that does not mean all of them are like that. For sure, there will always someones who judge people generally in any country around the world.
Mag N instead of being miserable why won't u just leave then, I'm sure there are Filipino nurses waiting to fill up your spot
+Mag N Most Poles I know are all "nice" people, in the sence that they not only integrate, but often assimilate into German identity. From what I percieve on the Engalnd and Poles matter is that there must be different kind of Poles be living in England. Every story about Poles in England sound like stories about Romanians or the iconic bydlo-style Russians in Germany.
There have to be a reason that reputation of the Poles in England is that bad.
Could it be that the normal Poles in England suffer from the bad reputation the highly recognizable bydlos?
Do you know not a single Pole you wished he or she should have stayed at home for the sake of the reputation of your kin?
Wouldy you please shine a light on that situation?
Ps.
Sorry for my bad English. In case anything written is received as offensive towards you, don't blame me, blame my English teachers.
I have NEVER seen a single pole as a nurse or doctor in the numerous times I have attended hospitals and doctors for health reasons. I have however see a multitude of polish unskilled workers mainly bar, work and working in shops, and of course cleaners. I think you are full of shit and are not a nurse - most likely an unskilled worker
good now go back to Poland there are enough people not only British who can take your spot
Considering how the UK have been effected by immigration, I'm not surprised with attitude of the British public, especially since we're facing a similar issue here in Poland, but to be honest, I would encourage the British to stop inviting the Polish people to the UK, especially the educated ones, because Poland is facing a demographic crisis, and shortages in labour, so we really need those people here in Poland, and it would be very helpful if you made the British-Polonia go back home.
This video was 7 years ago, believe me no one ever mentions anything about poles or other Europeans anymore it’s the Muslims that are the issue
@@pauliewalnuts5803 Sure, but that's not a good news from the Polish perspective, because again, we really need those people back in Poland, and to make sure that the educated ones stay in Poland.
@@ivanos_95 fair point
I am from India, and I have travelled a Lot in Poland back in the 1990's. East to West & North to South.
I must say that the Polish people are very nice and hospitable. I have stayed and lived with dozens of families in Poland and all have been very good to me.
Kocham ludzi z Polski i kocham Polskę. I love the Polish people and I Love Poland too.

Why aren't these Poles more upset with the sorry state of affairs in Poland that pushes people to seek opportunities abroad?
Well, it's not really their fault that they were under communism for so long. If we had fought with Hitler instead of Stalin then maybe they would be in a better position now. But, there is nothing stopping them from building themselves up now...especially as they are such 'hard workers' and many factories have moved over there.
+Sara Simm
I am sorry... but you don't seem to know much about Polish history. Blaming Stalin for Poland's current economic impasse is rather ridiculous. Poland has been trailing Germany and the rest of Western Europe for centuries now. It is not something to deny or to be ashamed of; it is what it is.
Masikini How can you say that being a satellite state of the Soviet Union until 1989 has no bearing on where they are now? Give them a chance ffs. And then they jumped right into another controlling union....Maybe they need to take control of their own country...after all, they are hard workers...
*****
You are a brute!!
I couldn't agree more with you. People everywhere, not just in Poland, should take their destiny in their own hands. There are no benevolent saviors out there.
I was about to say that most Brits like Poles, then I saw the comments....
I know ffs I try so hard to explain to people that the majority of brits have nothing against poles and then these pricks ruin it.
I think the poles are fine considering the war effort the country put in against the Nazi's.
Sadly yes.
Its usually misguided anger. Most Brits want immigration control and are consistently denied it. These immigrants represent the scorn our elites have for what the population want. If we had controls, the people we allowed in would be treated with far more dignity and I imagine would feel more welcome themselves too.
And who do you think you are? Speaking for the majority of us?
Dear polish people,
I have traveled to over 100 countries including your country, I have seen your salt mine, brand new roads, very good effective hospitals, your way of building decent buildings, your hotels, your supermarkets, spoken to your people in Poland etc.
In UK I used to employ hard working polish and English. I know your culture and foods.
Brexit is a good thing :), British people will understand so soon what has happened to them :),they will be sorry, but it will be to late as all the money ( insurance companies, factories, drug companies, car manufacturers, hard working skilled people) all are gone now , they are not coming back :).
You see, no need to be worried at all. Please focus on yourself and keep on improving. Don't waste your energy on others.
Trust me, it's the hardest thing to employ people and to manage them, I won't set any business in UK any more. I am gone, money gone with it, jobs gone with it too:)
Uk has voted to sanction itself , ok sanction yourself , no problem :)..
Good
Well said but please make sure to capitalise "Polish" same as you do when writing "English". Thanks!
Just to counter some of your points, if I may:
1 The UK, as one of the 5 net contributors to the EU, paid for the Polish infrastructure.
2 You could afford the hospitals, hotels etc. Most Polish people cannot, which is why UK national minimum wage is so attractive to Polish people, even graduates
3 The UK buys more from the EU than vice versa
4 The EU comprises a small and decreasing proportion of world trade. Post Brexit, only 5 of the top 20 economics are EU countries.
The non-UK trade of my services company is all in Asia, where true growth is located. UK services are highly thought of in Asia (which is where I am now).
they were always sanctioned, kid... make no bones... the British empire is alive and well.
@@@johncarden8985
So are you confirming that UK national live elsewhere to? I thought UK was a paradise and that all Brit live and have businesses only in UK. You really surprised me and at least I lean something today.
That's why I'd never move to UK even if they paid me for that, I'd be just scared of those people. I heard they've even attacked a polish guy only because he was speaking Polish. It's just sick and inhumane isn't it:)
No that's what the media wanted you to believe, the truth came out later that he'd got into an argument with them. Still not a good enough reason but the Polish guy wasn't blameless. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Arkadiusz_J%C3%B3%C5%BAwik
The truth is, it happens in nearly every country.But don’t be afraid,not all locals are like this
You are right. Different people have different ways of expressing themselves. The general message is please leave our country, so stop complainig and go
@@therealkeithstoke8636 That's absolute rubbish Brexit wasn't about forcing people out, the media is to blame for whipping up the view that it was. Most decent people that voted leave like myself was voting to stop freedom of movement in the future, those that are already came here are welcome to stay as they are here under what would be the old rules and we accept that their rights to stay if they want.
in Poland, Polish people do exactly the same or even worse to foreigners....lecture yourself first...
I think BBC is biased. I'm Polish myself and I haven't experienced anything they're talking about. All the British people I met or worked with were very nice to me.
Also, maybe I'm in the minority but I actually support Brexit. The EU is a money-hungry, authoritarian, regulatory burden imposing stupid laws that can't be repealed. Law and policies governing Brtiain should be made IN BRITAIN, not by some unellected bureaucrats in Brussels.
I'm not even sure if Brexit was about Polish immigration. I think people are more concerned about Muslim immigration, which EU is happy to push. The EU is hostile to true free market capitalism and I have reasons to believe it's also hostile to free speech. Brexit was the right thing to do.
Am English and worked with Poles they are okay better then some of us.They do work harder and they don't go to the bloody tiolet every 5 minutes leaving you working on your own like my English colleagues
Adrian1918 Good on you mate!
I'm Polish too and I have not experienced any post-Brexit discrimination either. But I do not work in a factory with uneducated angry white males.. Many Polish people do however and they do experience discrimination but they are also themselves very racist towards people of Pakistani origin. And there we go.
k. g Sorry, but if someone comes from a backward and violent culture, whose people have a habit of raping and prostituting young British girls, being cautious or prejudiced is kinda common sense.
I was all for tolerance and "don't judge anyone" when I first arrived in the UK, but I changed my attitude over time based on the degeneracy I witnessed.
I'm not advocating mistreatment of anyone but I am advocating caution (otherwise known as prejudice). Prejudice can save you from danger, especially when dealing with strangers. There's a reason these stereotypes exist.

Dna Constructions
Well, first of all I would like you to come to my work replacing me. They might be one problem - you will have to know a lot about analytical chemistry. The decision to employ me in the laboratory was made by locals, so please f... off.
Secondly. I live in Northern Ireland, so it is not so obvious, who is a host here. People like you push me to one side of that issue thou I want to be at least neutral. More than that I would like to see all those people united by something like humanity.
Thirdly. Due to my adventures with trips and emigration I was able to develop my present opinion, which keeps me away from people like you in ... Poland. They are ruling now, devastating the democracy in their efforts of polishing the nation. So I am not going anywhere. On the other hand I have my children here and their first language is not the same as mine. I wonder their future choices in the matter of identity.
Im British and I have never had a problem with the Polish/Eastern Europeans. I think though too many countries from the east were brought in to the EU too quickly, bringing very sudden immigration.
The EU actually allowed countries to close their borders to these new countries so that could control the immigration. Germany, the Netherlands and the rest of Western and Northern Europe did this. It was the UK government that refused to enact those control measures.
Your a naive kid with no common knowledge. Mass migration of poles came into the UK during both world wars and most of all as soon as they scrapped their way into the EU.
Not only that. Feel free to share the word with your fellow friends that the UK was the ONLY major nation a Pole could freely migrate to without any Visa, or waiting. Even Germany did not accept Poles for some time after we joined the EU. So a nation of almost 40 million who haven't had the taste of the West and real freedom for a long damn time, will invetiably have relatively more of its citizens migrate to the UK to that of the other nations simply due to a lack of choice. Many Brits and British media haven't realised this at all. Blame Labour for this poor immigration policy haha 😆
Take care 😄

No they haven't, 1.1 million of them applied for settled status, and 920000 Romanians.

This sums up that still in 2021 racism is OK.
Brits are NOT AGAINST IMMIGRATION. We are against UNCONTROLLED IMMIGRATION. Big difference. Currently as members of the EU we can not limit, set or change our immigration laws regarding EU migrants because of laws created by EU bureaucrats in Brussels. That's why we voted leave. There is nothing racist or xenophobic about that. How would Poles like it if Russians had a right to settle in Poland and were not allowed to limit the influx of Russians due to a treaty signed 6 decades ago?

Yes they didnt vote against polish people but brexit made a lot of retards in UK feel free to rage about them. Maybe in your country it isnt big deal but here in Poland it was big news when some teens beat Poles (one to death) becouse of their nationality. Same when some retards put fire on shops, houses of polish families. Or infamous letter to polish family children to say politly "get out of UK".
Benefits are realy not a issue for UK. Polish people give more to UK economy than they take. You should take those henophobic retards serious becouse it will strike YOU not us.
ABSolutely Yeah, well in my town, it was a big deal when a Polish group killed a man walking in the town center - a father who also happened to be Polish. Other than that, there have been no reported attacks on the Polish in my town. And we have a lot of Polish. We had a Polish community since WW2 and then an influx, like the rest of the UK in 2004. Obviously any attacks should be condemned, but compared to the millions of Polish in the UK, we are talking about a few incidents. Not one politician has suggested that we will be sending the Polish back...we just don't want any more because we do not have the schools and hospitals etc to cope with the mass immigration.
The Polish are now experiencing what black people have experienced since the 19 50s prejudice

Ok i'm 54, i'm half Polish and half Scottish, I'm from Durham, my 2nd Wife is Polish, I've always detested the UK, I understood why Polish people went to the UK, Poland was horrendously neglected after the war and only 8 years ago still difficult to survive, After seeing what was coming regarding the hatred thing, I made my Wife return to Poland, my Mother was loved in England and it makes my piss boil to hear Polish people being called by misinformed Sheep, under no circumstances was i going to watch my Wife being brought down by them. So we've saved and moved to Poland, what a transformation, it's absolutely beautiful here, My Wife has a job we get some money for the Kids, we bought her family's 125m2 city apartment off them and a bungalow beside a forest and lake, both of which we paid for at a cost of £65 k, we now have free weekend hot hols for the rest of our lives from May till September, the Children also have a better lifestyle, it's nice to see somewhere moving forward rather than the stagnation of Britain, Polish people still think the grass is greener in the Uk, they can have our 5 places with pleasure, And let me correct you, Poland is NOT in eastern Europe, it's the heart of Europe, further more, Czech, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania are NO WHERE near Eastern Europe, unless you think Italy is as well !
i am planning to go back to Poland soon, I dont think i like direction UK is heading to. Best regards!

manboobs C'mon.. Stop exaggerating with the influence that Polish immigrants have on your market. Of course, they make wages lower, but is 800.000 hard-working and well-integrated people really a problem for 65 mln population? In Poland we have currently almost 2 mln Ukrainian immigrants and they have come to Poland just within 4-5 years. Comparing to 38 mln population it seems to be an issue and it really has a tremendous impact on wages. However, the majority of Polish citizens accepts it so far. They respect the culture and work hard just like we Poles do in the UK. I see the problem and I wish they got back to Poland, cause our economy needs them, but it will take some time to persuade them.

Actually Poland gave about 10 bln dollars in the last 3 years to help people from Syria, especially in 4 Polish camps in Lebanon (with food help and education and health services made by Polish state), it gives also money for Syrian refugees to the EU budget (spent for new refugees in Italy or Greece for example).

All the Poles I have met have been good people. I don't understand the intolerance towards them. I think the women working in the cafe has a point about the quantity making them more of a target.
it's not about whether they are nice or not. it's the sheer number. UK doesn't have enough social housing or jobs for those born here.
If you actually think about it, Polish people are the ones that work hard. They come here to earn money. A lot of Brits sit on their couch on benefits say oh Polish people took our jobs, but that just proves that Polish people are more educated then them, and they work harder otherwise Brits would get the job. And you wonder why there is so many Polish people around because they work harder and in feature more Brits will sit on benefits and people from other countries will work for their benefits.
Weronika Pawlak You're totally right and I agree, but I Think that in the future there will be a lack of europeans in the uk and ppl who now sit on their asses watching jeremy kyle all day will have to get up and go to work, since there will be no one there to pay taxes. Also the eastern people wont do any hard jobs, all they care about is money, Which is prooven if you ever go to one of their Areas. Brits still wont realise it, or maybe they will or allready have but theyre too scared to say shit... Cause theyll get accused of racism and facism... But its not racism to be racist to a pole because theyre white and catholic? And the Brits still claim they have one of the best education systems...

I worked along side people from all over the world but, never seen to many English workers. Why? Many are just lazy & workshy. It's that simple.
London doesn't have that many English people living there in general, so it makes sense that most people you worked with were foreign. We have lazy cretins here but some of the Irish over here are just as lazy but of course being Irish you are going to say that 😂
That guy said a lot of English people quit the job after a week or two. I done the same recently at a warehouse job. Not because of the work or pay but because the majority of the workers were Polish or Lithuanian. The workplace was very segregated with little British employees. Polish and Lithuanians all stayed together and spoke their own language in a team workplace even though most of them could speak English perfectly fine. They made little effort with the British staff. It's a horrible feeling to feel isolated in a workplace in your own country.
That's a silly reason to quit a job. Also, as a bilingual person, I can assure it's not the same to speak one's native tongue and the second language (english). These people did nothing wrong to you yet you don't feel comfortable around them cause they're different. You're just small minded

There are a very few Brits who are against immigration, what people are against is ‘uncontrolled’ immigration, we have taken too many people too quickly.
The member states of the EU are only now waking up to the dangers of their immigration policy, dangers pointed out to them by Cameron seven years ago
but his words fell on the deaf ears of the EU.
Then why do lots of Brits who have lived in Southern Spain for decades speak NO Spanish AT ALL? That man has double standards.
How do you think the Poles would react if half of Warsaw residents weren't Polish or of Polish descent? Also, if there are no takers for those poorly paid jobs, then those companies would have to pay more. Demand and supply...
In the end that is all irrelevant. We can bicker about it now but soon there will not be any more jobs like that as well. In Sweden we already have automated shopping machines so they need only 1/3 of people working as the cashier and many industries are becoming infused with automatization and AI.

Barry Thomson I work as an economic analyst: I am quite confident that the free market rewards my skill set considerably higher than it rewards yours. I am merely restating the exact same thing that you are saying: Migrants have completely outcompeted the supposedly superior Brits. After this loss in the free market, Brexiteers beg for big government to change the rules by prohibiting the competition they can't beat.
I work with a lot of Easter European guys, Latvian, Polish and Lithuanian.
Every single one of them urged me to vote out of the EU ! I found this strange at first, but they explained that when their countries joined the EU a lot of the factories that employed low skilled workers went bust. This is because the EU required them to bring their factories up to European standards and it was just too expensive for the owners.
On my team, people aren't judged on where they are from, they are judged on how they work. You work hard, do your job and you are welcomed with open arms. East Europeans are very welcome here.
Depends on where you are living. Years ago Pakistan immigrants moved here and suffered in the same way. They worked hard in menial jobs, and others opened businesses , slowly they became accepted as did the Indian community. The most unwanted, are the muslums who are really testing the British patience . How can they do any meaning full jobs when they are praying five times per day ? They are too absorbed by hate and will never mix in with anyone.
Take heart all you Polish people, and be patient !
I understand this documentary pertains the poles in particular, but I just wanted to make a point of how anybody who is a "foreigner" in Britain is likely to receive that treatment, perhaps not so much if you live in London.(I'm Spanish, by the way)
And the Spanish are racist and xenophobic too!! So get off your bloody high horse!
@@persephone1966 exactly. According to the UN, the WHO and the WTO India, China and Pakistan are the most racist countries on earth yet no one says a word. Pakistan for the Pakistanis, China for the Chinese yet Britain is for everyone.
Stephen Murray Britain made a mess in South Asia hence Pakistan and India exist. You wouldn’t have sooo many Asians had it not been for the British who partitioned the country. History , you just never forget it. The problems of today were created decades earlier, you reap what you sow.
@@stephenmurray2851 yeah you can throw random facts like that and that will sound very realistic indeed.
@@abominusrex3205 "random" facts? How were they random? They were facts. And what are you talking about realistic? I'm not making a film. They are true facts. Now go away, stupid.
Polish are by far the best people I have met...friendly, hardworking, amazing people. You should be lucky to have them working for you. I wish they would come to my country.
Polish people are well educated , intelligent and smart. They are hard workers as well !I met them in Great Britain and USA. Most of them are doing very well financially . I lived here and there so I know what I am talking about. I am Polish myself and very proud and lucky that I am of Polish origin ! By the way I have USA and British passport.Lived in both countries for decades but spend my holidays in Poland .
HALINA DAHL no they are not LOL
There is obviously some but most arent, that's why their country has turned to shit
Please get educated on the matter of Poland being shit... I'm not saying this because I'm Polish but because Poland is actually developing faster than Great Britain now. Also, Poland has good pros and the only con I can see is the economy. However, the economy is growing and more Poles are coming back.
Don't listen to these bigots dude all of us who aren't racist pricks are honoured to have you here in Britain people seem to forget that we spilled blood together in battle against a common foe. Not to mention every polish person iv ever met have all been really friendly and chilled, I even got to learn some polish from them too and I for one appreciate having the chance to meet them in my home country along with many other races and cultures it's really a privilege to be able to do so.
:)
Thanks. Remind me to never hire you ;)
There's a small Polish community in the Seattle area. From my experience they are reserved, polite, and hard working. This is interesting though, because there are some Americans who feel the same way towards hispanics as some Brits do towards the Polish people. I guess we all have similar social issues and prejudice. Sad.
they are very racist.
@@fuanasantuary1277 "They" i have never been racist to anyone but yet i experience racism all the time, i dont get why you put all the Polish people in one pot acting like there are no racist English people.
@@fuanasantuary1277 yes brits are the most racist beings on planet earth
@@fuanasantuary1277 Not all off them
@@seansands4833 But older poles are pretty racist
Whether you like the Poles or not, they are seen by the British as yet another mass immigration into the Uk. The UK Government predicted that 100k would enter the UK, but over a million actually arrived in a short space of time and was a shock.
Some towns in the UK now have Polish as their main language, and Brits are not always welcomed by the Poles in their shops etc.. This is obviously why there is friction, as it is seen as an invasion! The UK Gov is naturally to blame.
I reckon the number of Polish & other Eastern European immigrants in the UK since 2004 is around 10 million & over...
Most poles (not all) are very hypocrite and ignorants. If it was the other way around and the British were to emigrate in high numbers to poland, I’m pretty sure that they will be treated much worse if not extradited or killed.
@@dgopro664 Exactly...Affirmative...you got the essence of the debate Mate...
@Lawrence Fox Dude I got nothing against Poles or other ethnic minority, I'm immigrant myself, try to check facts yourself & get out of your sparkling bubble. on the other hand, British Muslim & black communities in the UK are parts of the British empire & history, their ancestors fought fiercely for Britain & the Queen for centuries for the British empire. they paid the price by their blood for the British cause. Check out the facts mate before you spit stuffs...
Wilhelm Tauber 👍💯👏👏👏. That is my experience. We are loosing our culture, but the Polish and Ukraine’s etc anger me the most with their arrogance and entitlement. I lost several jobs no thanks to them and everything is in their language. All were unfriendly towards me. They are here to improve their lives not ours, so they are taking ,!! BBC bias, so stop paying the license fee.
Did it happen?
It is not the Poles who are the problem.
The problem in uk are the ppl from former colonialcountries. They are always welcome. But lazy criminal arrogant and racists.
@@gabistan2007
What makes you say that
Among all people I will assume you will be the least to carry hate towards other ethnic minorities
Weird that.it just goes to show that true racism is buried in Poland.
Majority of polish people hate anyone that's not polish.
Taste your own medicine not nice is it.in life what you give is what you get.so don't give out what you can't take.not saying all polish are the same but majority hates.
I rest my case.
The only problem with the Polish is they actually want to work, turn up for work and work hard. If we could only get others to have the same work ethic.
What for?
***** That's a lose ended answe lol.
Well you do? But u kicked them out .
Ironically, at the same time, Poland's far-right is also rejecting immigrants.
czcams.com/video/PnC-zSdMSRo/video.html
You Polish all work very hard
..
But the problem is that you are willing to work for little money and devalues the wages of British citizens. ..we will miss all 3 of you..!!
_Arent those Filipinos?_
sounds like you should have been fighting for workers rights and making sure everyone gets paid the right amount, but i guess its easier to bully immigrants than stand up to your boss
oh come on this is the BBC for crying out loud.
I would not believe a word being said on this programme
MrAckers75 is true buddy Polish can aford not to live in uk its their choice
When I was a boy, 50+ years ago, there were quite a few Polish families and one of my best friends (born here) was from a Polish family. Nobody moaned about them indeed everyone seemed to like them. What has happened to our tolerance?
maybe the people were nicer in them days,
Different times and the Poles from ww2 were more interested in mixing than simply profiting out of a country like using a vending machine!.
Nothing happened
@@davidhoy3206 Soudns like ur insecure… Every Pole that Ik is more hardworking than 90% of Englishman I’m afraid
@@pazthepole2814 Just putting my country first.
Never asked the poles to come to my country and never want to live in Poland and take work from a pole.
The EU is a business club not a love affair!.
Where I live in the in northeast New Mexico, USA, name from Old Mexico, the language of the indigenous Americans, first Zuni, and Hopi which were isolated languages were here first, the from the north Navajo, and Apache next, the Spanish came in 1540 and Coronado attached Zuni. The Spanish, then latter the English came over from Europe. Americans speaking English language, are the last major group to the area, which language pair, Zuni and Hopi, Navajo and Apache, Spanish and English is the most foreign language in my region?
So stupid how people just can’t get a lot and suck it up .
Jesus, the comments here are quite the treat.
I love some Brits, but I find they don't quite understand why thinking about them in the context of WW2 can leave some bitterness in Poles.
To put it bluntly -a lot- at least some of us thinks Britain basically betrayed Poland, twice. The first time when they waged the strange war, basically doing nothing to help Poland during the September campaign, and then after the war when together with the USA they left us at the mercy of Stalin, basically sacrificing us at the altar of politics, for peace.
Now, history being history, it's usually much more complex and multifaceted than just single sided narrative, but that's how some people feel over here.
Add to that the fact that Britain wasn't overly happy with the reconstructing of the Polish state after the Great War, and you get "the damn Brits never liked us anyway" sentiment.
Is it completely unfounded? Well, I wouldn't go as far, but there are multiple angles of argumentation that can disarm some of it.
You were occupied by the Soviets. Perhaps we Americans did not want 10 million casualties to liberate your country at the time. Learn to take care of yourselves.
How exactly do you envision standing up to Soviet Union and Third Reich both at once when your allies didn't even allow you to mobilize your troops before envasion?
Poland was occupied as resault of Yalta Conference, where Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin divided post WW2 world. Poland was "given" to Soviets, as it had not existed independent at that time (due to September campaign).
Poles where the best pilots in the defense of Britian ironically enough. And in reward, Britian gave them a plunger.
@@jeffreykalb8810 I'd go even further, the American public would be livid if Operation Unthinkable was realized and prompted five more years of war against the Soviets using US-made tanks and planes. No sane politician would make that decision. Stalin knew that and used it to his advantage.
The US with others has sold us for peace, it left a bad taste, but it's understandable. They made a deal with the devil, and we were the price.
However, Britain and France soured our collective trust towards military alliances. We hear "Western allies" and we think "right, like in '39?"
Now let me see... 'Germany has invaded Poland and as such we are at war with Germany'. Which bit of that have you misunderstood? Now FO and fight your own battles.
thx GB but we gotta come back now. PL is developing they need us there. Bye cya
enjoy your muslim free poland and remember we did not want you to leave but we did not want eu making more muslims come either
thx bro, you guys r welcome in PL as well.

Haha EU PROPOGANDA!
Good.
Polish people should check the prejudice against Indians or Africans in the UK. Then they'll feel to be blessed in heaven...
These comments are poisonous to read.
Many are truthful though
Swarcz Kopf but so true get polish Out asap
Yeah they are annoying, so much ignorance that you don't know if there's much point in trying to correct it.. hmm
nearly all comments on u tube are poisonous. that's the Internet for ye.
Polski shit
As a British person I've worked with many polish people over the years and have always found them to be very hard working people. I've had nothing but positive experiences when working alongside them and haven't personally heard anyone bad mouth them ? I'm from the south so maybe things are different in other parts of the country but for my part I will miss their work ethic and wonderful sense of humour if they leave.
I have a friend for Poland she is super decent person! she lives in France
Politicians are to blame.🐕
She Hit the Nail on the head at 7:30 to 7:35
I have so many polish friends in California.. great people, great nation! Love from US!
Thanks my brother!
The Poles leaving the UK? Good this way! No Pole should live in the country of a nation that denies the betrayal of 1939 and, in addition, impudently demands gratitude from Poland despite this betrayal.
