Fifty per cent of Polish immigrants intend to stay in Scotland

Re: Polish tradesmen: I've lots of experience in the trade market - Polish tradesmen generally quote quicker, work harder, do the job better, are more adaptable and cost less. Why would any sane person go to a relatively lazy, expensive, pooor quality British worker? Perhaps British tradesmen can't hack the competition...perhaps they've been ripping us off for too long. P.S: What exaclty is a 'Brit' (?) Perhaps you're narrow-minded and intolerant.

@talara18 Talara - Perhaps worth looking up who THE number one pilot ace weas on the Allies side in WWI (Francisek - Czech guy) and how many Czechs heled save our island. Do we 'thank' Churchill for turning his back on Poland and 'selling' Poland to Stalin at Yalta (Google it, 'if' you don't know). Agreed, the Russians and Yanks had a significant effect- but the topic is Polish, who also contributedsignificantly..

[barrach7]

At least 40,000 Scottish persons went to Poland for employment and a better life in a better, more tolerant country. FACT. If it wasn't for the Poles, BEngalis, Czechs, Canadians etc, we'd v probably be speaking German now and have limited freedoms. FACT Almost EVERY EU Polish immigrant has a relatively superior work ethic and the Polish education system is better than ours. FACT

@barrach7 Bengalis..Czechs (I think not) Poles made a contribution yes as did Canadians, but we mostly have to thank the Russians and the yanks for winning the war? Polish immigration has put an immense strain on the British working classes and has kept wages down and put builders plumbers, painter -decorators out of business due them being able to work for prices Brits can't compete with. It was a mistake not to put Immigration caps in 2004.

[shortybig50]

@segano1 True.

[AustinRitchie]

what did she say at the end?? :S

[jebus0000000]

@AustinRitchie She said "we're going back to the studio"

[gliderama]

80% of Scots don't want them here in the first place.

[talara18]

@gliderama same down south of the border. we should have put immigration quotas up back in 2004.

[barrach7]

@talara18 These damned immigrants eh? I mean, send those Vikings back, those Scotti from Ireland, those British from Iberia / Hungary, those German-Danish (aka: Anglo Saxons), etc etc etc etc etc etc. In fact, all of our ancestors are Ethiopian and none of our ancestors could have lived here until circa 10,000 B.P. As such, let's chuck ALL of us out! PATHETIC! Tolerance is simple...and Poland's history shows tolerance is high on their agenda

[donkeyfreezer]

Having had polish friends they openly admit to coming here for the benefits ...not to work.

[shredmaster100]

if poles and other eu immigrants want to live in britain then they should be prepared to fight for this country in afghanistan but the moment u make that law all these eu migrants will fuck off back to their own country cowards they like stealing our jobs but dont think the countries worth fighting for

[91more]

@shredmaster100 stupid argument as Poland already has soliders in Afghanistan and Iraq, think before you speak please.

[Kris393]

@91more I think he's saying that if they made it law that immigrants had to join the British Army and fight they would all leave. He's not talking about the Polish Army in Afghan, just saying the Polish would all leave if it was law that they all had to join the British Army.

[biohazard141]

@Kris393 i will join British Army. But i will not fight whit muslim ppl i British Army. Scared of them
