There's an occasional article in the Guardian, but I didn't see anything on the telly.

For Brits, POLAND DOESN'T EXIST!

The main focus on the TV news was on (i) David Beckham's heel and (ii) a Pakistani boy with UK citizenship being kidnapped and ransomed in Pakistan.

Was it an official state visit?

Maybe they are hoping if they don't mention it then he might stay there.

Look, even the daily wail has a story: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1258138/Camilla-canc els-Poland-engagements-trapped-nerve-start-day-tour.html

Really? In that case why did they send the heir apparent to the thrones of the Commonwealth realms on a trip which is designed to show the strength of bilateral relations?


Out of interest, http://news.google.ie/news?hl=en-GB&q=charles+poland&sourceid=navclien t-ff&rlz=1B3GGGL_en-GBIE361IE362&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wn shows that there are more than 350 news articles about the trip.

Of course it doesn't... I bet you think the British think that's why all the Polish are in UK, cos Poland doesn't exist.

There are only two parts of the world: The British Islands, and something called "The Continent".

Sorry, what you have to remember is that to the british, the rest of the world is infact part of the Empire, so all the world is British (even the colonies, like USA).

To the US the British are a laughing stock, especially Churchill holding on to FDR's apron strings during WWII; because without FDR's help, Britain would have **** itself up to its ear lobes. Is that your idea of "empire". It died long ago. get over it!!

Poland doesn't exist....it only brought down Communism i.e., Lech Walesa's Solidarity movement that stood up to the Commies, and got the ball rolling. Of course, you wouldn't recognize that because you are too busy worshipping your queen, who you worship instead of God.
