tinfoilhat   11 #121 Posted February 22, 2015 There's a much, much better way ahead that should be law for all employers in the UK - make it illegal to employ people whose first language is not English. Of course it will never happen, but the country would be a better place if it did.  You'll never get a decent curry.

Dugglesbury   10 #122 Posted February 22, 2015 You'll never get a decent curry.Why not? Just reintroduce slavery, that way such people would not have to be employed, but could be gainfully utilised, and the staff costs would drop significantly - reducing the price of a curry. Win-win all round.

blake   10 #127 Posted February 23, 2015 That's not paranoia I've experienced it in loads of shops.  Why would they (foreigners) be speaking in English in the first place, in private, if their co-language is not English, but Mandarin?  I am a foreigner here in the Philippines. If I am in the company of some other foreigner who has Eng!ish as their first language, regardless of our foreign language skills, we will ALWAYS speak in English in private.
