  • Why are Polish Britons leaving the UK? As Brexit continues to reshape the UK's political and economic landscape, a significant number of Polish migrants are packing their bags and heading back to Poland. Driven by economic changes, social challenges, and a longing for cultural roots, this reverse migration reveals the complex fallout of Brexit.
    Discover why Polish Britons are choosing to leave the UK behind and what this means for both nations in our latest analysis.

    You use photos of crowds of illegal immigrants from Asia and Africa to illustrate Polish immigration. 😐 This is a distortion of reality and a terrible simplification. Poles came to the UK legally, with passports in hand, mainly to work and not for social benefits.

      those clips were all over the place. At 11:54 there is a Ukrainian family in front of a Slovak double decker train. I'm not sure what does that have to do with Poland. He probably just typed in ''immigrants/immigration'' and never really checked or maybe that was part of his narrative. And you're right, comparing legal Poles with illegals is unfair.

    Given the way that the Poles were treated in this country when they first arrived, I don't blame them, especially when after the second world war, Poland, a country we went to war for, was given over to the Russians, along with many others
    Worse still, Poles fought gallantly in all three of our services but were not even allowed to take part in the victory parade because we did not want to upset our erstwhile Russian allies and, even though it was known that the Poles that were murdered in the Katyn Forrest were murdered by the Russians and not the Germans, with the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials about to start, it was considered expedient to let the Germans take the blame for the murders as they had already committed so many war crimes anyway, and we wanted to keep the Russians sweet for the forthcoming war crimes trial.
    Browning and Montgomery tried to blame General Sasabowski for the failure of Arnhem, but the Poles, who did not even go until the third wave, when the Germans were well-prepaired, reinforced and expecting us to send more paratroops, fought as well as any soldiers ever could and gave their all.
    The highest scoring squadron in The Battle of Britain was 303 Polish squadron.
    Many Polish Generals, including General Sasabowski, were treated worse than the defeated Nazis, and we should have begged forgiveness from Poland years ago and tried to make amends.

Quite enough Polish people sacrificed their lives for the West in the Battle of Britain and the SOE in WW II. Ther "reward" was that they had to see Poland betrayed by the West and thrown under the boots of Stalin after the war. They will not fight in the oncoming civil war against Muslim invaders and conquerors just to save Britain or Ireland, and then to be betrayed again afterwards. You are alone in that fight.

      To me, an expat is someone who comes to a country temporarily, not seeking to acquire permanent citizenship. For instance, if an American gets sent to head up the London office of Goldman Sachs for three years, he’s an expat. If he married a Brit and decided to live there permanently, he’d stop being an American expat and become an American immigrant.
      Some countries permit wealthier foreign retirees to come there without becoming citizens. Costa Rica and Panama encourage American retirees to come there, for instance. Again, such people are expats, rather than immigrants.

    I lived in England for ten years. We worked hard with my husband. We bought a lovely house. I nostrificated my diploma in teaching and worked as a teacher at local primary school. Sadly, there was not even one white child at this school. We decided to go back to Poland when our children started school. I was really disappointed with British education system. Both as a teacher and as a parent. The level is much, much lower than in Polish schools, yet chidren are forced into school environment at a very young age. Too early. Apart from my disappointment with the school system, we didn’t feel that England was a safe country. Not safe enough for our children. Poland is definitely safer, cleaner, more traditional and that’s what we like. It is a great country for raising kids. The salaries are a bit lower but we decided that it is better for us to lower our expenditures and live a poorer but definitely a happier life.

In Poland nobody is afraid to speak of such things, but we also realise that parallel society can be a problem even in single nation countries, thus mass immigration from culture that believes in it's own superiority while having huge issues unseen in Europe since XVIIth century, just has to cause trouble and violence.

      Mieszkałem w Stavanger, Odda i Vikesaa.
      Powód dla którego nie moglem tam dłużej mieszkać to nuda, pogoda i ceny.
      Nie zatrzymacie nas.
      Mam tam przyjaciół za którymi tęsknię i utrzymujemy kontakt.
      Ale niektórzy okazali się zwykłymi szczurami, którzy sprzedadzą cie za garść soli.
      Jednym z nich był moj przyjaciel. Nauczyciel w szkole podstawowej. Wykształcony gość.
      Pewnego dnia przyszła do pracy nauczycielka angielskiego z Polski. Wszyscy ją lubili. Do czasu aż dyrektor szkoły uznał że ona mowi już dostatecznie dobrze po norwesku, żeby nauczać tego jezyka młodsze klasy. Od 1 do 4 klasy.
      Wtedy koledzy i koleżanki z pracy przestali się do niej odzywać.
      A mój przyjaciel żalił mi sie, jak to możliwe żeby Polka uczyła języka norweskiego, norweskie dzieci.
      Wtedy zaczął sobie robić ze mnie żarty.
      Hipis który kocha wszystkie kultury i narody świata.
      Dla mnie znaczylo to koniec z przyjaźnią.
      Po tylu latach, gdzie pomagaliśmy sobie wzajemnie.
      Tak bardzo dbacie żeby wasze dialekty nie znikły.
      Wasz jezyk jest tak bardzo uproszczony gramatycznie. Że nic tam skomplikowanego nie zostało. Jest nudny. Dlatego zmieniacie go każdy w swoją stronę.
      Nie tylko co fjord to inny dialekt.
      Studenci z Norwegii rozmawiają po angielsku miedzy sobą w UK. Stavanger nie rozumie Trondheim i wzajemnie. A Oslo nikogo dalej niż Kristiansand.
      Moze czas to uprościć. Tak jak wykastrowaliście swoją gramatykę.

    I am a regular visitor to Poland, it is a much nicer place than overcrowded England.
    Not all Poles are returning in my view.
    The Polish economy is doing well, there are plenty of job opportunities. The monetary exchange rate today is not as advantageous as it was in 2004/5.
    If you get less zlotys for your pound, it is harder to send money back to Poland.
    Poland is a monoculture, it does not have the problems that diversity brings.
    It is not supportive of illegal immigration, more the opposite.
    Poland is 120,000 sq.miles, England 50,000 sq.miles.
    Poland is not overcrowded, England is.
    There is probably less to gain financially these days by leaving Poland to go to England.
    The Poles guard their borders, England does not.

Economically, Poland is on a path to become one of the stronger countries in Europe. Many people who are returning gained valuable experience in the UK, accumulated some wealth and can now contribute in their own country. I'm from Slovakia and every time I travel to Poland I can see how the gap between our countries is getting bigger.

Asking around in Poland, I’ve found that very large numbers of people have spent many months or years living in the UK.

And even in this educated group with high income, many times I felt this strange vibe of superiority from them, even though me and a guy from Spain were simply better at our jobs. I don't want to say that it's some sort of general rule, I'm sure that there are many fantastic people in the UK, but my first impression was like "I wouldn't want to live here". Even in the US people were much nicer to me.

      As Pole living in Poland through all of those events I can tell you, that when it all started most of media channels were screaming "why Polish young people are migrating and how we should make them to stay". In most cases the reason was simple (in some cases it still is) - most of those guy were on temporary contracts, they were/are hired for certain job and either they were doing it, they stopped and found something else, or they were coming back to Poland. Relatively few of them were going there thinking "I will go and find something on the spot", most of them when they came already had first job, because they came on friends invitation with information "come here, there is an opening doing something, you can earn much more than in Poland".
      And here is the reason why this all was happening - most of those Poles where working abroad to earn more (difference between PLN and EUR was then something around 1 EUR for 4 PLN, in case of PLN to GBR it was 1:5.5) and then come back to Poland to invest here (e.g. someone wanted to buy a house, but he had problems with getting morgage, so he went abroad to earn enough to either get that morgage or to simply buy this house).

Instead ... the North voted to leave ... to get more jobs. Now, there are even more jobs, and the "hard done by North" still does not want them. Instead, the late Tory government had to bring in (oh, the irony) a record number of immigrants to keep the lights on in the NHS. And still - the immigrants are the problem, not the lazy and entitled.

      50% of Poles have a university degree, some Polish plumbers are still in the UK, so low-pay workers are already needed in Poland. But British immigrants will have a strong competition, as more than 2 million legal immigrants and refugees came to Poland in recent years, mainly from Ukraine and Belarus, but also from countries like Georgia, India, Vietnam etc. They integrate well, they don't cause troubles... Many of them work below their qualification - in agriculture, construction, manufacturing. So an experienced British plumber may have no other choice but to work as a junior assistant of an Indian full-time senior plumber :D

      @@joebarnes100 Poland became a "German" colony after 1815 (a.k.a. Russia-Prussia-Austro-Hungary), and they've changed this country socio-economic hierarchies, structures and even mass popuation to their liking, with WW2 culminating in complete destruction of Polish infrastructure and population. Poland has been a play thing for those forces ever since.
      It is systematically hidden by the media including mass education, so few people outside of Poland even know that.
      Manipulation of currency is the big part of it, made especially easy after 1971. In fact this is one of the reason why so many people immigrated to UK, because salaries seemed very high in comparison and the British Council worked very hard to get them to come to UK, and even sent out the "search parties" to recruit as many as possible.

    People in Poland had no choice but to emigrate after the collapse of the economy in the 1990's. Rapacious western companies bought up Polish industry to close down the competition and the unemployment was 20%. Poland (and other Eastern European countries) were bled out od people, educated at home but working for the GDP of other countries. It is good they are going back. Everyone should work for the benefit of their own country. At least you, Brits, do not have to worry that recent arrivals by boats want to take your jobs.

    I've visited Poland half a dozen times in the last few years. I would with no second thoughts move to Poland were I younger and if I thought I could ever master Polish! (Bloody impossible language - who dreamt that up)
    I've enjoyed the company of Poles living here - I'm generalizing of course but they are genuinely pleasant people to be around and not that different to us. Visiting Gdansk in September (again). Love the city.
    These people will continue to be a sad loss to the UK. They have been great ambassadors for their country.
    Poland is on the rise as we appear to be, once again, on the decline but that's the merry go round of life I guess.
    We are absolutely content to see out our years here in the UK but I would have loved to have had the chance to go and live in Poland for a few years.
    I have never yet met a Brit complaining about having the Poles here (though I have heard some other nations highlighted in discussions) I have met a few Poles who have said they no longer feel welcome here but the overwhelming majority said they have had a positive experience here and though some of them (met a few Poles who have married into British families and have no intention of going back to there) have said they will go back at some point and a even a few who had set dates to return. Also met a couple who left just after Brexit but have since returned and set up their own business here. Happy to have them and more like them.

    I lived in UK for 3 years between 2016 an 2019 in Manchester and after that time we decided to go back. We did not feel safe. Way too many immigrants from africa or muslim countries. Way too many terrorist attacks on railway stations, Ariana Grande concert bombing, stabbings, rapes etc. Also police turning a blind eye. Some parts of city like Longsight looked like some arab coutry. Also first 2 years we would only get shitty jobs at factories and warehouses for which we were overqualified and had to work with uneducetated people and earn the same shitty salary. I already had CAE certificate so I was fluent in english and I had 3 years of experiance working in a banking sector. Took me 2 years to finally land a job in the office in banking but by that time I already was in a state of depression. Also it was surreal to be treated as cheap labour and at the same time discriminated by british while muslims and africans with no jobs and relying on benefits were given a free pass. They were given nice houses while I could only afford a rent in a shitty 1 room flat. I saved as much cash as I could and we got back to Poland. Now I'm a project manager in big e-marketing company and my girlfreind works in flat administration office. We bought a house and we earn more then we did back in UK. Also this salary allows to buy more then my salary allowed to buy in UK. Now brits woke up and realized they are being overrun by muslims and their state opresses them and gives muslims free pass. Good job.

To add insult to injury, they label any dissidents as 'far right' and arrest them for expressing their opinions.

I think this is a false narrative. The poles have integrated extremely well in to the UK, are educated (have better language skills than a lot of Brits), and are hard working and inviting in to their culture and traditions. In fact they have done a better job at integrating that some UK-born Muslim communities who simply refuse to assimilate and hate the British culture and way of life.
