"Perhaps we should take some lessons from them! "
What like, finding a country which pays double (or triple) the wages that the UK does for basic non-skilled labour, has no immigration control so we can get in with no problem, live in a house with 10 of our other country men, save up for 2-3 years and then move pack to the UK and purchase a
house and start a business.
The average monthly wage in Poland is around �468, the UK avergae is 3-4 times that.
I do not have a problem with them for a second, but they are using the worlds economic conditions, something we coming from a country with such high living costs are simply not capable of doing.
Yes they work hard, possibly more so than many British people, but they can see a viable benefit in doing so. If you told me there was a country I could earn �200k a year (with only 20% tax payable) then I would be off like a shot to work like a ****** for 2-3 years.
I'm more than happy for them to be here, but don't make out we are all work shy simply because some Poles have found a way to get rich quick which is simply not open to us.
