He, like you, didn't know his history, did he?
Just more jingoistic claptrap.
Perhaps a few additions that may explain why donald tusk is not a fan of you british. In the second world war a lot of polish men fought side by side with the english. One of them was the grandfather of donald tusk.
As most on this forum will know, the poles were betrayed by montgomery in operation market garden. Many brave polish men were needlessly killed.
As to the battle of britain, polish fliers had an important role in that. There were two polish battalions (302 and 303). Somewhere I found these words of air officer commanding Hugh Dowding:
I must confess that I had been a little doubtful of the effect which their experience in their own countries and in France might have had upon the Polish and Czech pilots, but my doubts were laid to rest, because all three squadrons swung into the fight with a dash and enthusiasm which is beyond praise. They were inspired by a burning hatred for the Germans which made them very deadly opponents.[
