Default Thought i was in Polan for a minute there!

I work in shopping centres and all i've heard today is Polish people speaking. Had to ask one of the security guards if we where still in the UK, unfortunately I couldn't understand what he said as i'm not up to scratch in the Polish language!

LOL: our local Sainsburys, in the town centre, rather than on the edges of town, has mostly Eastern European clientel, plus a few Asians who only appear to speak their own lingo.

However: my wife and I don't walk round our local ATAC, or Trois Mousquetaires at the French property, speaking French, so maybe they think the same about us

Until I speak to 'em in good French, that is

Don't have a problem personally, the majority of the Polish that come over here are a very hard working bunch and do all the ****ty jobs that the lazy good for nothing dole scum in this country don't want to do. Glad to hear they're putting some of what they earn back into the economy by frequenting your local shopping centre

You DO know that this is as big a lie as "foreign scroungers", don't you?

ESPECIALLY with over 2 million unemployed?

Or do you think they all LIKE living on tiny handouts?

I think they are great, 90% of them are a good laugh. Best one is when they come up with a Polish accent speaking Norn Iron (Northern Irish Dialect)

You haven't lived until a Pole comes up to you and proclaims "whats the craic, mate!"

The French always assume the "Ze Hingleesh" can't speak French, which is often true. Talking loudly in English, with an 'Allo 'Allo Gendarme accent doesn't really count. I love it when the Francais are speaking about me or the car, not expecting to be understood, and I turn round and speaka da lingo to them.

The group of teenagers that made comments about how unfair it was that a fat old **** had such a cool car got a suprise

So have all the sh i **y jobs only been created since the "immigrant invasion?"
If not, who was doing them beforehand?
