Poland's ambassador in London has expressed shock and concern about what he said were incidents of xenophobic abuse directed against the Polish community following the UK's decision to leave the European Union.
Dozens of alleged racist incidents were reported to the police in parts of England over the weekend, including cases where Poles and other eastern Europeans were the victims of racial abuse.
In Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, local media said police were investigating reports that signs reading "No more Polish vermin" had been distributed in the area, including outside schools, hours after the referendum's result - a 52 to 48 split in favour of Britain's exit - was announced on Friday.

exactly
is this why? I’ve never read a good answer for hitlers hatred of poles or alavs other than he thought they were subhuman. why?
no you view white hispanics as a different race in the US
Without the bravery of the Poles in WW11, this generation would not be able to spew their hatred without impunity.
The rest of the world has a couple hundred races.
One way is to look how he treated Slovakia as opposed to Poland. Slovaks and Poles are very similar. Hitler allowed the Slovaks to have a puppet state, which he didn’t even allow Poland to have.
An interesting tidbit, when Hitler first came to power, he made overtures to Marshall Pilsudski, who he greatly admired. He saw Poland as a potential ally against the Soviets, and he knew how much Pilsudski despised the Russians, and Hitler saw him as a hero who saved Europe from Bolshevism in 1920. Hitler even attended a memorial service for Pilsudski when he passed away.
But Poland would have had none of it, and Hitler felt betrayed by Poland’s rejection, and he vowed that Poland would never exist again.
Guy was a piece of work!
For some reason the Brits really hate Poles.
I can assure you that’s not the case. Poles have been regarded as friends and allies ever since the sterling contribution UK-based Poles made to the war effort in the Second World War. And the more recent arrival of substantial numbers as EU citizens - usually referred to as the ‘Polish Plumbers’ has brought them new respect as hard-working and skilled contributors to the economy who usually fit in well with local communities. These nasty incidents - and they’ve certainly happened - have been very much the exception.
Every government form I’ve ever filled out has “Caucasian, Negro, Hispanic or Other” as choices for race. Nowhere did it say “Baptist or Muslim” or “Polish or German”.
You are filling out American forms.
So, America only recognizes three specific races?
Judaism, Islam, Catholic are NOT races. Neither is Texan.
No, they are religions.
Neither is Texan.
That is an ethnicity.
But Slav, Celt, Jew, Anglo-Saxon, Greek and Norse are all races.
We are lumpers, the rest of the world are splitters.
Saudi Arabia, Poland & Mexico’s government want thought crime laws and 10 years prison for any English speaking person who says immigration should be limited.
