Too much personal abuse - again will be deleted
Also too much political meanderings - please if you wish to discuss immigration or racism please find a suitable forum for it. We try to be a postal board and whilst politics can come into it we don't want it to take over teh threads.

4 pages of off topic politics and abusive comments deleted. Sorry lads if you cant keep the politics on thread or without abuse then perhaps this board is not for you.
I have left some off topic comments on this thread that are either interesting, easy to read or add something of interest to the thread. Could I also ask people to use English instead of texteese some of the posts I have deleted I did so because they were difficult to read and did not add any information to the thread.
If you do want to discuss politics in a major way then please pop over to http://www.politic.co.uk/ or similar sites.

I've not been working with too many Poles this week, but from the ones I have spoke to, there doesn't seem to be an out and out abusive word, such as Scab. But they do have the word strike-breaker. Which phonetically is -
Whammy-strike!!!
