dude, i am totally with you. i spent 4 years in london and i was called
f**king immigrant a lot
i know exactly why. many polaks travel to the UK to use government help. heck, people divorce so that a woman can claim single mother benefits. some do not even live in there, they just come, sign up to the system, rent out their council flat assigned by the government and only come back few times a year to show kids to social services. paradise indeed.
btw, i worked in the UK, paid taxes, paid SSN and never asked anyone anything. i would love to go back, life was good there. but it is not easy for people coming from abroad, the job market is competitive and does not look favourably at those who have no local experience.
