My security guard from last year is back,he has taken a year out of his studies in Poland and come over here because he found everyone so pleasant and friendly last year,this year he has brought along 2 friends,both very pleasant lads and all 3 of them want to pay their way while they are here with casual work.
They finally found a house to rent in Clayton and moved in last week,all seemed well until on Saturday a gang of 10 youths broke into the house and proceeded to beat the 3 Polish lads up.These fine examples of British humanity turned up with baseball bats and also stole over £700 of property.My guard was hit round the head with a fire extinguisher and is very concussed,his friend was kicked so hard that his arm is broken,all of them have black eyes and multiple bruises.
The Police are involved and so far the answer to this despicable act is"they don't like strangers round here".
We are talking about Clayton here not the bl**dy Bronx.
I am appalled and embarrassed by what my fellow countrymen have done.These people are here legitimately and are working,not scrounging.
I would ask that anyone who has any information about this crime;which to me seems racially motivated,would call the Police and tell them anything that may help.
It has been a real eye opener today,I really didn't believe that Hyndburn had sunk so low.
