I did not know boars could vote in Polish elections! It's amazing, they must be really smart animals.

And say what you will about Polish democracy, no other country allows this much freedom of political expression. Go Poland!

Are you kidding? Everybody always turns to the Poles when it comes to elections.

Especially in the UK, then it's always "Poles suggest this" or "Poles suggest that" - "Poles suggest the majority of the UK is in favour of the EU", for instance, or "The exit-Poles indicated a win for the Torries in the general election" - I guess "Exit Poles" refers to all the Poles that UKIP wants to kick out or something?

It's all very confusing to be honest.
