    Poles are here to stay in Britain, but it'll take time to make a cultural splash

    i wonder how many Bulgarians, Romanians, Croatians, Turks etc will come to the UK

    Poles are the second biggest immigrant group in England and Wales after Indians. There are now more Poles than Pakistanis living here, the new 2011 census report reveals.

    Thanks Labour



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    1973 i was in juniors school,I didnt get a say,what I do know is there was an opt-out clause whereby EU members werent allowed to enter a country for employment for 2 or 3 years when the EU opened its doors,several countries opted in,germany was one of them I think?,tony b-liar(freudian slip) didnt allowing unmitigated levels of immigration from the word go,labour actually admitted they got the levels they were expecting wrong by a massive underestimate

    I know the winter of discontent was in 1978 because labour was trying to get inflation down that was left by heath and the tories.

    2 years - a mere drop in the ocean Andy - 13 years of crass mismanagement of everything from the economy to crime to immigration to human rights to health & safety is going to take some sorting out.

    Bottler Brown doesn't have much to say for himself nowadays the first in his long line of cock ups was flogging off the gold reserves for a pittance

    Ded I agree with some of the things you say. But the country is going to the wall and I dont see the government in power doing anything to save it. Some of the tory backbenches want to come out of the EU but cameron will not listen.
