I'm actually still almost hoping that the company will fold ( I know it's on the cards) that way I get a "licenciement economique" with a reduncy cheque of about 4 months wages, the equivalent of 70percent of pre tax monthly wage for up to a year, free or paid retraining etc etc.... As things stand I would have to stop working and pay for retraining... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question mark around my boy's status in Poland now.....the right wing government are saying his papers aren't right. That's despite having residency there for 5 years. He's contacted the British Embassy to see if they can do anything. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was not the case, they removed his work permit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The eldest grandson Jake has joint Polish/British citizenship, and he's now applying for the British citizenship for the youngest one (julian). Thing is, Poland is an extreme right wing totalitarian state now (in league with the Catholic Church)......so basic human rights are not a consideration there. He does want to get them out of there......but he should have done it before Brexit! I fucking told him but the only one he listens to is her! And she ain't right in the fucking head! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
