The stereotypical views on polish people are that they are all illegal immigrants that steal British peoples jobs. However the jobs they do are extremely hard and the jobs are mostly what British people don't want to do, and they do them for very little money. Polish people started to come to Britain in 2003. Some people see the polish as hard working, and creative. This is a quote from a polish girl living in England:

“I'm a Polish girl living in England. That's why I have been particularly curious what you-people think about us, Poles. I'm here to tell you the only truth. We are really hard-working and determined to achieve one's personal goals. We are honest and helpful. Always ready to listen to somebody when they feel down. So I wish you not to meet those who are not a part of the majority!”
