QUOTE OF THE MONTH

‘I believe there are a number of people – not only from Poland but from a number of other countries – who are feckless naturally, but they seek a better life and they go abroad.

Currently, the UK has become a destination of choice for such individuals. Poland doesn’t shirk responsibility for such individuals. We are aware that such a problem exists. We know that there are those who have succeeded in the UK and have jobs and are doing very well, thank you, especially considering the difference in wages between the UK and Poland.

But these people are registered as unemployed in Poland, so they are living a fiction and raising unemployment figures in Poland while they are doing very nicely in the UK.

This is something we would like to do without.’

Lech Kaczynski, Polish President.
