Polish and Engima machines is all you need to know to why the British ended up on the right side of the war.Originally Posted by joebloggs
education dom is the only answer
little do kids/teenagers know of their own countries history, without the polish pilots in the RAF, Britain may not have won 'the battle of Britain'and maybe we would all be speaking german now
, like my mom was forced to learn German at school when the Nazi's invaded the Baltic states in WW2.
i can understand the point that people are worried that eastern europeans have taken jobs etc, near me, there must be 5 polish sklep shops i go past on my way to work, maybe too many here, too soon, and with the credit crunch its not a good time for all, but no reason to abuse women and kids
Never right to be rude to anyone. But the problems were planted in the early noughties and before with everyone to scared to talk about the Issue.
One of the Worse issues your find is how racist/bigoted many Immigrants are which is also part of the reason as well as the common bond/vaules/religion/outlook etc they share. Means they end up with their own..
Sadly many of the Poles I see in West London have very very non pc views. From what both the more highly educated Poles who came over in recently and from those who have been living here years tell me. Many of the working class newcomer poles hold views which if expressed on here would have the board closed down. I can think of several violent epsiodes and many where the match didn't quite light with drunk poles acting like the polish version of the BNP. I have witnessed these with my own eyes and in the company of Polish friends who were embrassed to tell me its not unknown.
Many other races from all backgrounds will say in public how they have no issues with others but a very very large percentage will have different racial,ethnic, religous and political groups that they would prefer to stay away from. Right on social workers will not be able to intergrate these groups how ever many seminars they attend.
The best way is to get by it would seem is to agree to disagree and see how things pan out. Many cultures as they group better off tend to find it easier to "intergrate" but thats not going to happen for the next three years minimum.
If the worse possible outcomes happen from the information being fed to me comes to light we will all revert back to large groups for survial of the fittest.
Fights between the different cultures and races have been a big issue in London for years of course but I have heard and seen more divisons breding in the last six months for a long time.
Casual/cash in hand work which kept many of the people who live at the bottom of the pile afloat has dried up. Crime is up but not that we know as its easier to rob from those who will not report it to the authorities so quickly as the middle class and the rich.
At the schools and academies i have links with in central london with many being from poor backgrounds this is a big issue with Pupils being robbed of items they need for schooling or dissapearing as the family cant afford to send them. The onsite Police officers know its happening but rarely get a formal complaint raised.
Again in local areas the big problems not between White british kids and "others" its between various ethnic minority groups. The biggest issues between established groups and those recently arrived in the area/UK.
Both types of groups often police themselves from my experience having rightly or wrongly a distrust of police forces in general formed often from past experinces in there homelands.
I think it was the early noughties when there were the race riots, Friends and I were waiting for it to kick off in West london. but it never did mainly it would seem that people were doing ok. Had Jobs, credit was easy, there house was on the up, rents cheap and the pound strong.
A credit drought, a recession, house prices going back down to what they should be and possibly lower with the issue that affects many on here remittance.
With Sterling looking like its the weakest currency major currency and now its last big industry the city is deeply wounded(ok we have education bringing in the currency at present but how long will that last?). We will see major problems for those with those who remittance affects greatly. Not just in the pocket but pride and self esteem. no one can for sure say how this will impact British soceity but i doubt it will be a postive.
Its gonna get ugly out there
