Poles in UK/Ireland and English speaking Polish media, do they exist?

derek trotter:

Are we don't need to communicate with local population, create mutual bonds, understanding each other or are we lack on entrepreneur skills?
Just wonder what you think.

enkidu:

Why should we care for well-being of UK more than citizens of this country? Obviously, you don't give a damn about "politics and stuff".
Don't blame us. It would be rude to decline this offer.
Blame yourself.

Do Polish people in UK and Ireland use English enough to communicate freely on internet? Since 2004 a lot of Poles flew shores, from that time not to many English speaking forums and websites have been created. Even PF was made by American Pole long time before. Ive been browsing passionately whole net and it seems we are not exist, our voice is not visible. There are two internet based radio stations from London, but most what they produce is a pile of songs playing one by one like spreading bullets form machine gun, not too much talk in Polish and English. No English speaking forums about Poles and there are millions of us here. Only few blogs made by poles in English, you can count them on the fingers of one hand I suppose. 5 years in English speaking counties and nearly no sound of us. Are we don't need to communicate with local population, create mutual bonds, understanding each other or are we lack on entrepreneur skills? Just wonder what you think.

Maybe Polish people dont reallly care, as already stated on this forum: enkidu: Why should we care for well-being of UK more than citizens of this country? Obviously, you don't give a damn about "politics and stuff". Don't blame us. It would be rude to decline this offer. Blame yourself. If thats the voice, then I really hope that you lot keep quiet, there wont be many "mutual" bonds created if your average Brit listened to the above.

There are plenty of Polish news papers / magazines ect in the UK so there is a voice, there are other internet forums that are for Polish people (Polish only language), so I still dont know what more you want?

But I still dont quite understand why you are bothered by it - People will automatically communicate in their mother tongue - look at any ex pat forum and people are communicating in their own language - its just the way of the world. You could take the initiative and start a news letter written in English? derek trotter: lack on entrepreneur skills? The amount of Polish shops should dispel that thought ;0) derek trotter: The usual crap you hear, read from internet, about us and them ( you ) and how we cope with each other.Is that a big deal? Thats the internet, for the most part Poles are accepted to a certain point in Britain and Ireland.
