Article 6 of the Treaty on the European Union, in the version established by the Lisbon Treaty, gives a binding force to the Charter of Fundamental Rights, including it in the primary law and making it equal with it. Thus, the instrument was not directly included in the Founding Treaties, as provided for by the Constitutional Treaty. The Protocol on the Application of the Charter of Fundamental Rights to the United Kingdom and the Republic of Poland is an inseparable part of EU primary law. The aim of the Protocol is to limit the pos-sibility for the ECJ to control the application of the Charter in cases in which laws provided for in the Charter have been confirmed by the Polish legal system. It does not seem apt to say that Poland’s withdrawal from the Polish-British Protocol would only be possible through a new protocol, ratified by all Member States. EU law, as a subsystem of public international law, is essentially deformalised and leaves a relative freedom of action to states. There are no obstacles to applying these non-formal procedures (such as withdrawing the special reservation by Poland) to the Polish-British protocol

As multiculturalism in the United Kingdom passes to a ‘post’ phase of existence, at least in academic and political discourse, it is important to consider the lingering impact of over fifty years of its presence in the form of Race Relations and integration measures. This article aims at a critical reassessment of the overarching strategies that have developed over the last half-century in relation to the integration of immigrants by putting the legacy of British multiculturalism into a firm historical and socio-political context; by marrying immigration and integration policies with normative models of integration in the hope of drawing a certain causality between them; and finally by highlighting the changes that have taken shape amidst the continuity of certain shared principles or frames of reference. The first part of the article looks at immigration and integration policies in Britain through a historical perspective; the second section delves into the concept of integration itself and its complex manifestations in British politics and policies; finally, a critical review of the development of these policies and their 21st century manifestations and outcomes are discussed in the third section. The analysis shows that the United Kingdom has, over the last decade, seen an ever-stronger intertwining of immigration and integration policies towards a robust civic integration approach, made evident in the introduction of citizenship and language testing schemes and strict pre-conditions on entry. Meanwhile, the turn in anti-discrimination legislation has been rather subtler. It has extended its reach to other areas of inequality, focusing on more pressing, or less contentious minority group support, such as women and LGBT rights, whilst retaining a measure of ethnic and national minority protection.

This paper argues that the distinct and important contribution that immigrant Po¬lish Roma have made to the development of general Roma/Gypsy/Traveller Politics in the United Kingdom is partly explicable in terms of the cultural capital they have brought with them from Poland. They have introduced a new style of cultural po¬litics and community organisation which has been emulated by Roma/Gypsy/Traveller organisations from other communities, and has strengthened the possibilities of common action, underpinned by a new kind of diverse and tolerant pan-Romani consciousness embodied in the UK’s Gypsy Roma Traveller History Month in June each year.

Various aspects of Polish migration to the United Kingdom (UK) have been explored by academic and other researchers to date. However, analysis of the reproductive behaviour of Polish migrants in the UK is still scarce, despite the fact that children born to Polish mothers constitute a large and growing share of all children born in the UK. In this paper the author examines fertility trends of Polish migrants through an analysis of birth registration data. The first part of the paper reviews relevant hypotheses relating to migrants’ fertility behaviour. Literature on children to Polish migrants in Germany, Sweden and the UK is also reviewed. The second part of this paper draws on analysis of births to Polish migrants in the UK and provides an overview of birth trends for this migrant group. The author shows that the proportion of births to Polish mothers is increasing in the UK and that the increase in these births has been substantial in all UK countries. Analysis of the data also shows that an increasing proportion of children are born to two Polish parents and that Polish fathers are not likely to have children with non-Polish partners. In the final part of the paper the author discusses these trends and provides potential socio-economic implications of Polish migrants’ reproductive behaviour for demographic trends, the labour market and public services.

Intermarriage has been argued to be a key indicator of migrants’ integration into the host society. However, relatively little is known about the experiences of what many forms of intermarriage entail in a super-diverse context. In this paper, I problematise and further investigate the assumed link between intermarriage and the cultural, identificational and interactive dimensions of social integration of Polish migrants in Britain. The analysis is based on the results of a qualitative research project conducted among Polish migrants in Birmingham and surrounding towns of the West Midlands, where Poles represent the third most numerous non-UK-born population. The data collected in the course of this research suggests that there are three main patterns of interactive integration of Polish intermarried migrants: (1) the classical path of acculturation and integration, (2) inverse integration, and (3) the more pluralistic cosmopolitan mode.

Nowadays, multiculturalism is a frequently used term especially when dealing with integration problems of immigrants from Islamic countries into the majority society. But the term 'multiculturalism' is used too generally without being defined. This paper aids at finding the precise definition of the concept by relying on the opinions of major scholars of multiculturalism. Multiculturalism and its attributes are subsequently confronted with social processes and the possibility of the use of multiculturalism in education system is reviewed. Given that the United Kingdom developed an integration policy based on multiculturalism, in the case study the author critically analyses its impact on societal relations in this country. In this study ideas of relevant theorists of multiculturalism gained as a result of semi-structured interviews are quoted.

This paper deals with the fiscal regulation in EU and the UK, analysing the Stability and Growth Pact (SGP) after the Six-pack reform and the recent introduction of British fiscal rules. The main aim of the first section of this paper is to compare the SGP before and after the Six-pack reform in order to determine whether the reform has contributed to conformity of the SGP with theoretical requirements on fiscal rules, as defined by Kopits and Symansky (1998). According to our analysis, it could be concluded that the Six-pack reform has contributed to better fiscal regulation in EU compared with theoretical requirements. Enforceability in real conditions, nonetheless, still depends on political will. The second section deals with the two recent British fiscal rules, which are also analysed using the Kopits and Symansky framework. The analysis of Eurozone and British fiscal rules aims at contributing to the current discussions about the economic consequences of Brexit.

The United Kingdom has recorded a high growth rate over the past decade - higher than in the euro zone. A sudden and shocking deterioration took place in 2008 when the crisis of the financial system was further deepened and the prices in the domestic real property market decreased steadily. As far as the United Kingdom is concerned more emphasis should be put on the level of innovativeness because in most contemporary theories of economics, innovative actions constitute the major factor generating productivity growth. The British sector of financial services is extremely important for domestic and global economy. It is the fastest developing sector of economy in which the United Kingdom has the biggest comparative advantage.

Kossowska was the author, among others, of such books as: I live in London, From Herbert to Her-bert. The “News” Award 1958–1990, I write you as I see you, Ancestors Galleryand Friends and acquaintances. She was a permanent collabo-rator with the Radio Free Europe.
