Guest Bob, who hasn't seen any Poles in Reading- there's been a Polish community in Reading for a long time- the Polish Club, which shut down last July had been there 42 years. And there's been a Polish catholic church on Watlington St since the late 70s.

Also, Guest Dailymail Reader; UK unemployment benefits are considerably higher than in Poland. So is the cost of living. And so are wages, which is why most of the recently-arrived Poles have come here- unemployment is roughly half the national average amongst Poles.
