One of the most visible signs of Britain's membership of the EU in recent years has been the Polski Sklep.
Polish grocery stores have popped up on the High Streets of most big towns, responding to the growing population of Eastern Europeans in the UK.
"I feel really bitter and emotional about it," says Iwona Erikson, cradling her baby daughter in one arm.
"I couldn't believe my eyes. I thought - 50% of the people here are racist. They have decided: 'We don't want foreigners here.' I had never felt discriminated against until now.
Sylwia Sawska, serving customers behind a counter piled high with long pork sausages and cheeses, is also worried.
"People are so nice here, nicer than in Poland, so I'm very surprised they voted to leave," she says.
Sawska, 20, has been working in the shop for five months. She moved from Poland with her parents and younger brother six months ago.
"We felt welcome here and the pay is good. I can earn £7 an hour, while in Poland I would earn £1.50 an hour.

Whenever something wanted to conquer Poland, generally it could.
Every offended group is a “race.” It works better in the “I want more free stuff narrative.”
Seconded.
Drat. You beat me to it.
Every country has the right to police its borders and keep foreign invaders out. It’s not racism, ethnicism, or any other possible ism to do so.
I wonder if the girl interviewed here ever learned about the history of her native country.
The WW2 contingent of Polish refugees and fighter pilots have assimilated almost to the point of invisibility.
"Waaaah! Wacism!" Partisan Media Shills alert.
Hey, this is not about white Europeans. This is about Muslims, Africans, and the rest of the dregs. Poles are equally intelligent and as hardworking as the British.
Um, yes... that would be Polish peoples.
If Texas ever has a vote on secession, I will encourage Obama to speak against the idea in every county throughout Texas. Then, when secession wins, I'll move to Texas.
I’m struck when I watch old TV shows how many blond men there are. It stands out, because I hardly ever seen blond men anymore. Women, yes, because lots of women dye their hair blonde. But blond men seem to be getting as rare as hen’s teeth.
I also notice a lot more blue-eyed people in old TV shows from the ‘60s. I believe white traits, (blond hair, red hair, blue or green eyes,) are becoming less common. If some bird or fish were going extinct, people would be upset about it and trying to save the critters. But white people? Their demise is supposed to be a cause for celebration.
This July 4th, the Mrs and I will be giving a Polish lady a ride to the airport at LAS. She is flying back to Poland to visit her children who still live there. She is a widow of a multi national electrical engineer who used to move all over Europe. She is extremely anti EU. She told me that the N Germans and Dutch are the most arrogant people she has ever met anywhere in the world-Russia included. The S Germans are completely different.
She told me that the EU is being run by people that financed the Nazi regime during WW2 and since ,ost of the leaders in the Euro nations are money hungry, they go along just to get the financing from the EU in Brussels.
The Pollish are stuck in between.
But the immigrants to the UK due to the EU membership are mostly Poles. African and Asian immigrants is UK-s own post-empire Commonwealth deal.
Didn’t know racism was the issue but thought it was more about economics and self determination. Europe is waking up to the fact that these unions are a means of robbing the most productive and favoring the non-producers. We see the same concept in play here where welfare recipients are as good off as lower wage workers. So where is the incentive to work and where will it lead this nation other than the trash can?
Racists always say stuff like you are racist because you don’t want us living among you nor do you want us to force you to become like us. You object to us wanting to make your country foreign which would make you the foreigner in your own homeland; therefor, you are racist for wanting to survive in your homeland and wanting to pass your heritage to your children, while we want to make your children non-racists by making them like us, foreigners. You are racists, while we are merely needy and greedy and we need, we want to command the abundance your ancestors bequeathed you and we want to invade without war and take control and eliminate you because most of you are willing idiots who will help us destroy heritage, your culture. COVERT destruction, now becoming obvious, is why, we, a good, generous, and just people, are standing up and saying no more to our disrespectful destruction by people who are taking advantage of our generosity, but unwilling to assimilate and become one of us...
Reverse imperialism
Well said.
....and if Texas does not want you?
Laws can be changed. It ain’t that complicated.
I have heard from a scientist for a big project that the EU was regarded by the managers (also scientists, mostly) as very unstable, and the money supply for large scientific cooperative ventures very uncertain.

Krupp? Farben?
I get a general impression that
(a) eastern europe is undergoing a depression (well over 20% unemployment)
(b) a large percentage of immigrants to the UK are actually eastern European
I wonder how many eastern European immigrants managed to register to vote in the UK Brexit referendum...
