Article left Polish woman ‘shocked’

Speaking on RTÉ radio yesterday morning, Magda (not her real name), said the article was so inaccurate that had she read it about another Polish person, she would have agreed that the person should “go home”.

“If I didn’t know it was from this Polish article, I would be really angry at this Polish girl and I would say exactly the same thing, like that if you hate it here and think that you live in a shithole, go home,” she said.
