I'm not saying all and I'm not going to apologise for my bold statement. It's like a lot of Europeans and others come to England, which is good because they earn a living and they keep our economy afloat, but some of them don't even bother to learn the language and refuse, which I think is VERY disrespectful, if you came to this country then you came to live and respect english morals and cultural, which, duh, you should know the bloodie language! Then some of them want us to write lots of different languages on forms as well as english, but I don't think it should be done like this. People who live in England, should know and have decency to learn the language!! Also a lot of people who come from this country bring crime and insult our government/people and way of life, then why are you here? Some of them life off goverment welfare and money (our taxes) and bash our way of life...then perhaps you should get out and not live here!! I find in insulting and disrespectful!

Well if they want to work here, they should learn the language BEFORE they come. We all struggle, it's a fact of life, they're looking for work? well a lot of people in this country who were born here are looking for work. It's not just them who struggle.

Attitude? I don't think so. I'm just sick of people coming into my country, exploiting the welfare that I pay for and don't bother to speak to me, in my own country, in english. I think my point is very fair actually.

It all the same where ever they come from / some good some bad.
Irish people were treated very badly in the past. The worst treated were those Anglicans who came to England as nearly refugees in the last century. They kept the boarders of the so called English empire secure and were treated with abuse.

I actually think you would be very hard pressed to find one of those familes that don't work or anything because they actually come here looking for work!
i dont think we should write the signs in a different language but then consider you go to chine and you get there and you dont understand anything how are you gonna get a start on it with people with your atitude reacting to you like you do to them?

well you've said what most Brits have said for years,I'm not too'' bothered about the language thing, but people should respect our way of life,and should not get automatic handouts without putting something in, in the first place.
We can only blame our government for this stupidity,as they are not representing the people of this country

because they are pig ignorant, and think they are special so deserve special treatment, when i do abroad on holiday i try to learn a bit of the local language to get by, n that's only for a 2 week hol, so you are right they have no respect, just want our money and homes

I agree with you 100%.
I have been told that when they bring their cars in from Eastern Europe, the police have no database for them. So they can get away with parking tickets, speeding cameras etc etc.

Hello today English person who asks question.
Please could you maybe consider the use of paragraphs in your block of text question. It helps us foreigners to read it. It is a common universal rule of education. Thank you English one.
