But I know it won't happen, bcoz UK primary school kids have better English than any dumb Pole, regardless of number of schools finished/diplomas received.
In that in mind, I'll probably try to join some 'mafia', pimping streetwalkers in Baker street. (made that up - one of the few streets I have heard of  )

A popular area is the hospitality trade, and in regards to English, your English is better than my Polish (which consists of about three or four words).
I honestly have absolutely nothing against people from Eastern Europe coming to the UK for work, because I've seen people from the UK come into my workplace (a Hotel) and leave within a fortnight because they either can't hack it, or they find the work beneath them, or they don't have the right attitude. Someone from Eastern Europe comes in, they're polite, and hardworking and they stay. So, honestly, it's little wonder that employers prefer to hire from abroad.
