  • The lack of languages teaching (as opposed to single-language teaching) in UK schools is an absolute disgrace. Basically, it means that those people who are linguistically talented have to be very lucky to get any education at all, as that particular talent is neglected not only in itself but also to the extent to which it can be a foundation for other learning.

    But foreigners have shown themselves perfectly capable of learning English, so we don't need to learn any other languages.

    It's scientific fact that foreigners understand you perfectly if you shout.
