Are there any Irish persons left in Ireland?

Asmooh

Since I arrived in Ireland it feels like I have arrive in Poland, I only hear Polish blahblah in combination with bad English.

In stores, talking polish to other people but seems to be bad in English, people only being friendly if the other person is also polish.

How did the people of Ireland ever accepted this situation?

The Moldy Gowl

Accept it?

Probably because we aren't ignorant gowls?

Poles are only a tiny percentage of the population, where are you living?

Seeing as you are also an immigrant, maybe you are as much a part of the "problem" as they are.

For what it's worth, whenever I am back in Ireland...it's still mostly Irish people there...perhaps you need to take your ignorance elsewhere...

I confirm that I am Irish, and I am in Ireland right now.
So that's one anyway.

Most of us take people as we find them, the cnut to daycent ratio is exactly the same amongst the Irish, the Poles, and wherever it is your from yourself OP.

They've all moved to Australia.

Probably do their shopping in the local Polish shop for a start.

I was asked to come over here because they needed someone with some native languages, we are used to Polish people on the "mainland" of europe and they are nothing more but trouble.

Try shopping in another, non-polish, store.

How do you know that each one of them weren't asked to come over like yourself, or are doing jobs that Iriah people don't want.

Or are they just not the right "kind" of immigrant for your tastes.

To be honest, if you don't like how Ireland is, I suggest you leave. There are plenty of others willing to fill your spot

Only Ireland, Sweden and the UK fully opened up their labour markets to Poland and the other nine accession states in May 2004. The rest opted to impose a work permit scheme. Hence why there are so many here now and they are largest minority group in the state with 122k resident as per the census 2011.

The Backwards Man

Why shouldn't they be in the EU?

I'd take a Pole for a day footing turf over a Spaniard or a Greek anyway. :P

Greece will be kicked out the EU soon anyway (at least if they think in Brussels)
Based on the situation at the mainland, all criminality went up since eastern europe joined the EU.

I lived in Sweden, believe me people are not really happy with the situation but the government does not care what people think.

Apart from one Polish woman I worked with who was quite frankly an ignorant bitch, although I don't think that had anything to do with her being Polish, my own experience of Poles in Ireland has been overwhelmingly positive. Same goes for any Latvians, Lithuanians, Romanians, etc., that I've had dealings with. So perhaps you could clarify how the Polish people are so much trouble?

Never heard anyone say a bad word about the Polish.
Plus they have fantastic genes.

I agree. is it too much to ask that if I go into a Dutch or German retail chain that I hear an Irish voice?

It should be English anyway, not any other language specially not from the workers, or don't you agree?

So you're Dutch and in Ireland and you're complaining that if you go into a Dutch shop in Ireland that you hear polish voices?

Pop over to the Irish language thread and you'll see how debatable that is.

Do you ever get a Chinese where the staff talk to each other in Chinese?

Seriously you need to cop on or shop somewhere else

I would still be fine with Irish and I will learn the language, no issues there.
I just think that if the main language is Irish or English that those are the spoken languages at public places, like stores.

But that is in a Chinese restaurant right? As far as I can recall is Lidl not Polish and Spar also not.

I heard they eat Swans. That's what really bothers you about them isn't OP? The Dutch want to keep all the swans for themselves.

My point was they are not speaking english

The staff in my local shops are mainly Irish
and if they talk to you in English what's your problem?

From the article:

The consequences are an increase in prostitution and theft.

An increase in prostitution and theft? In the Netherlands? That is impressive given how well the Dutch are versed in both of those particular codes.
