What do some British hate the Polish?

Question

thanks

Answer 1

Most Brits do not hate Poles. You have to remember that Poland has very strong links with Britain and that lots of Poles lived here even before 2004. This is mainly because of the Poles who were displaced and fled to Britain during World War II.

Some resentment stems from the fact that recent Polish immigrants are treated as cheap labour by employers and are often seen to undercut the indigenous workforce. Sometimes this fact is used by ignorant people to attack the Poles themselves.

Ultimately, most Poles in Britain are simply economic migrants, and there are as many economic migrants leaving Britain as there are coming in. It's no different from British builders going to Germany in the 1980s (remember Auf Weidersehen Pet?)

Answer 2

Because they expect us to pay for their houses and benefits and they also sem to be taking over out country.

Answer 3

ignorance

Answer 4

i dont hate the polish, but i know some that do. i have respect for the polish as they come here to work and to make there lives better. they take some awful jobs, and its the same jobs that have been there since before the poles came. how many people are on benefits that could have taken those jobs?

Answer 5

Some sad and ignorant people will always blame someone else for their problems. The Poles are just the latest wave of economic migrants. They will either stay and and become integrated or leave, just as millions have done before them.

Answer 6

Ignorance, I dont hate the polish, they were our allies in the second world war and I had a good friend who came over here when the Polish fleet fled from the n***s to save their navy,he is dead now, with most of his generation,  in Plymouth there has always been a quite a large population of Poles.  They are only doing jobs that would go wanting anyway.

Answer 7

"Only doing jobs that would be left wanting" haha! That comment made my day. you middle class numpty that argument is so weak. If only you knew.

Come over to the Welsh Valleys and see the mass unemployment and poverty that has been there since the Thatcher years but has gotten worse recently because of the influx of immigrants from Eastern Europe.

Statistics show unemployment is going up, I know people in trades such as Plumbing and Bricklaying who just can't get work, and bus drivers and Warehouse men who have been pushed out of the employment market.

The only people who benefit from Immigration are the people who own these companies, its cheap labour.

These jobs should be given to the native population.

Make no mistake, working class Britain is being gagged and raped by its own government.

You f*cking idiot.

Answer 8

You assume that some British hate the poles! Assumption is the mother of all f***-ups. Not all of us Brits hate the Poles (I personally don't, there's good and bad in all of us!)

I had the good fortune to visit their country last year. Not many of the Poles are fond of Warsaw (I'm personally not fond of London) but the city of Krakow is wonderfully rich in cultural heritage. And the weather in September is often really nice.

Poland has shed it's grimy socialist past. it really is worth visiting. The food and beer are top-notch.

Answer 9

They don't hate the Polish but it's quicker & easier to blame migrant groups for the problems facing the indigenous society then to actually put some thought into it & fix what's wrong - if you look at British history it's the same with every migrant group that's every come here

Answer 10

I certainly dont hate the Polish, there is many Poles in my town and most of them are very friendly and polite and are a credit to their country
