It's partly how they form their own little enclaves and use the English language, instead of integrating and becoming Spanish. |

The Spanish made a pact with the devil when they decided to attract working class holiday makers. There would be jobs for their people, hotel owners and land speculators would make a lot of money.
But they also had to put up with drunken loutish behaviour from a section of the tourists.
I made no pact with anybody, but the house next door to mine has been rented to Polish people for a couple of years now. They may be hard working but every weekend they are out in the garden, drinking, shouting, and making a general nuisance of themselves.
They may be contributing to the economy but they aren't contributing to peace and quiet where I live. |

I don't think it's a case of people complaining about immigrants in general. I am completely supportive of immigrants coming into our country and filling positions where there are gaps. I think the problem is down to the sheer number of immigrants who have entered the country and the effect such a large population explosion in such a short time has had, and the strain this has put on housing, transport, education, health services, undermining of local tradesmen, etc.
Your point is well made though. I wonder how many people realise the debt we owe the Poles for their support during the Second World War?
For mowhokman. Learn your history;
But the most distinguished role they played in 1940 when the decisive for the fate of the England and the coalition Battle of Britain took place (August 8 – October 31, 1940). The British industry produced enough aircraft but it was not possible to train enough pilots in such a short time. Therefore the role of foreign airmen, of whom the greatest group formed the 151 Polish pilots, cannot be overemphasized. They fought both in the British and Polish squadrons (302 and 303 fighter and 300 and 301 bomber squadrons). During the Battle of Britain the Poles shot down 203 Luftwaffe aircraft which stood for 12% of total German losses in this battle. |

Where I live, after 10pm most of the people getting drunk and throwing up are East Europeans - many of them Polish ! - and they aren't here on a holiday nor do they have any intentions of going back. |

British tourists don't claim benefits for their kids back home- Poles do.
I would point out that we lost an Empire as a result of helping Poland - and the Polish feckers are not at all gratefull. |

To complain about Poles living and working here in UK is a pointless exercise in race crap in my opinion.
I am old enough to just remember WW2, having been born in 1941.
I know that without the Polish Squadrons Royal Air Force, it is doubtful that we would have won the Battle of Britain. Yes, it was that bloody close.
POLISH SQUADRONS RAF BATTLE OF BRITAIN
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=di0pkn4Rgo4
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmO8Ku85RnY&feature=related
On their first day in the Battle of Britain, the Polish pilots killed (shot down) 16 Nazi planes. No other squadron ever achieved such a stunning victory.
So, as far as I am concerned, what the Polish Squadrons did back then in the Battle of Britain, gives to the people of Poland of today an everlasting passport to fame and glory and their right of entry to UK.
I am entirely biased because I am Welsh and have had the great good furtune to work alongside my Polish comrades here in London - they seem not to understand the words "lunch" and "break", especially when they are joined together. Their idea of a day's work is about ten to 12 hours with maybe ten minutes for a coffee sometime around 4pm.
Blimey! You wait till the Union hears about this. . . . . |

You said Poles not Spaniards.
We have never invaded Poland "puking up all over their pavements and getting drunk every other night."
Plus the Brits who go to Spain usually go there to retire, self-sufficently with plenty of money. The young Brits who go there getting drunk and puking up are holidaymakers who will come back home and not claim child benefit or tax credits.
Poles come here with no money, to compete for job with natives, drive wages down and claim lots of child benefit for their kids back home. Totally different scenario.
Your argument doesn't stand up. Plus if you have a problerm with Brits "getting drunk" maybe you should check out the gangs of racist Polish youths, drunk on Vodka and being abusive to passers by (especially the non-white ones) who congregate outside my local LIDLS . . .
And a study by the House of Lords proved that net contribution of economic migrants to the UK is so small as to be entirely negligable. How does the import of skilled labour stifling training opps for young Brits "benefit" anyone? How does the undercutting of native tradesmen "benefit" them? How does the driving down of wages and increased competition for work "benefit" the young Briton? It doesn't. The only people who benefit are business owners and people who get to employ a cheaper plumber.
EDIT: To the historically-challenged. Poland actually owe *us* a debt for going to war to help them. A few fought for us but the majority of the debt is theirs. Plus just because a few Poles fought in the Battle of Britain doesn't mean that we should allow carte blanche to the whole of Poland to come here and help themselves to jobs and housing which should be going to young Brits (and don't come out with the old crap about "young Brits" being too lazy to work, I can introduce to dozens who prove the exact opposite. Stop reading the Guardian.) |

i think you are right. i have to say that we have a few polish families here and they are lovely friendly people. they just fit in with every thing like they have been here for ever. i have no problem with polish immigrants at all. they seem just to want to improve their lives. they are not hate fuelled Islamic morons with nothing but mindless violence and negative simmering hate and resentment to offer. they actually seem to just want to work ,save ,and go home. as far as I'm concerned those that want to stay are more than welcome. |

I completely agree with you. However in the small town i live in we have a huge number of immigrants and i'ts definately taking its toll on the community. I do find it rather annoying that i have lived here for all my life and struggle to get dentist and doctors appointments yet the poles i work with seem to have no problem on getting on waiting lists etc despite being here for what seems like 5 minutes. |

We had the first NHS dentist in our town for ages because of a Polish dentist coming here. |

In my experience here in the UK its the Poles who are always getting drunk and spewing up over the pavements! |

UCS is right about the Polish Pilots. There was a squadron based in RAF Northolt, where there is the "Polish War Memorial" to the pilots who died. Its just off the A40.
Even the English pilots admired the polish guys. They hated the nazi's with a passion for what they did to Poland. They had a real fire in their belly.
Also, the Polish were the guys who got hold of an original
"Enigma" coding machine, so the Bletchley guys could make duplicates to work out how to break the codes. |

You are talking rubbish - your stereo types disgust me.
So people attracted to a resort as the facilities they offer and style entertainment permitted, whilst spending all their hard earned cash how can that be compared to mass immigration?
Get real. |

English till i die

the polish people tried taking my uncles job in the factory
they don't contribute to our economy they send most of their earnings home to their families in Poland which takes a lot of money out of our economy
they cant speak English properly
they shouldn't be here |
|
its me
|
i don't mind the polish or any other immigrant who are here,
its the ones who come here for the money, housing and the nhs and then they don't want to work.
the working ones are fine by me. |

Funny. During WWII Polish pilots made up around 7% of fighter command, they shot down around 13% of the German planes destroyed in the Battle of Britain. The Poles took Monte Casino, after others had failed. Their reward? to be sold down the river by Churchill and Rosevelt and not even be allowed to take part in the victory parade in London. Now we turn these hard working people away after 50 years of communist rule brought on by us! |

The Brits you are talking about are on holiday, the Brits that live there can afford it and don't scrounge off the rest of the country, unlike the Polish people. |

Used Car Salesman : WHAT DEBT DO WE OWE the poles. we went to war to help them.READ some history books. Some free poles fought for us but only after we gave them a home.
As far as brits abroad are concerned we Are financialy buoyant when we move to other countries (for the most part). we contribute from the get go mainly in property and starting new businesses. However i feel you are confusing Tourisim with Immigration and that is juat daft as they are NOT the same |

Nothing wrong with Polish immigrants, I've worked with loads and they're O.K. It's the bl00dy Kurds we should get rid of (I've worked with them as well by the way.) |
