Thousands of Brits are moving to Poland attracted by the Eastern European country’s cheap cost of living and fast economic growth.
dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…
But this is actually the second wave of migration in this direction - I know plenty of entrepreneurial Britons who moved to Poland back in 2000-2010’s, some for personal, some for business reasons.
For example, most of the BPO (business process outsourcing) in my home town of Kraków was built on experience of British folks who moved to our smog-covered town and made truly great bosses. What they came with was a matured business management culture, which was a huge asset in a country that has only recently started doing business properly and wasn’t sure if it should be done the Eastern dog-eat-dog way, or the Western consensual way.
Twenty years ago Poles came to the UK searching for a better life - now thousands of Brits are going the other way

The kremlin falsely claims victories in Huliaipole, Myrnohrad, and Kostiantynivka, but Ukrainian forces continue to defend these cities, inflicting heavy losses on russian troops.
Past lies about Kupiansk and Pokrovsk also failed. russia’s disinformation targets foreign audiences, but Ukraine’s defense remains strong, with 1,000+ daily russian casualties. Always verify sources.

Se non li conoscete imparate a conoscerli da questo: invece di rispondere sul merito delle questioni sollevate, attaccano la persona.
Alla fine dell' "articolo" non è stata toccata nessuna delle questioni sollevate dallo storico Barbero, solo il richiamo a luoghi comuni in un mare di vuota retorica delle responsabilità, della serietà e del perbenismo.
Negli anni '70 gli si sparava, era il massimo del rispetto che gli si potesse donare, restando sulla loro stessa linea.
