In these days when quite a few nationalities have been rightly suspected of 'dipping their bread' at our expense as immigrants - the Poles have stood apart as a group who have been hardworking, skilful and a genuine asset to the nation.
[Remember that of the Somalis amongst us, a mere 19% are in work.]
It is therefore with some regrets that I learn that the government is stating that more than 100,000 Poles have now returned home, probably because of the economic climate here.
