Comment on Polish War Memorial
Seems we forget all to often , the Polish allies who provided crucial and much needed support to GB during the war - Ironic that todays Polish immigrants are now providing the UK with the much needed tradesmen that we have failed to train in recent years. Consider their loyalty, their support and the hardships that they suffered not just during the wars but under the communist rule. If the only price we have had to pay is the traffic jams around the memorial - then thats terrific value !! So, if your short of a qualified, polite and efficient tradesman - Seek out your nearest eastern european immigrant - The Polish one will not let you down. 50+ years on maybe it time we offered our support to the Poles to help them build the solid economy that they deserve.

Comment on Polish War Memorial
Putting sentiment aside, why do people in the south east think a Memorial only mentioned in LOCAL traffic news could possibly be an English Icon? Please remember most English people are sensible and lucky enough to NOT have to live in the most congested part of England, and we have no interest in your traffic news. If I suggest the German War cemetry on Cannock Chase here in Staffordshire as an Icon you might understand why the Polish Wart Memorial is a vacuous, pointless nomination. Harold
