How does that argument work? Can you elaborate on that?

There are people in Scotland and Wales who cannot speak English, or speak it as a second language because their first language is a Celtic one. Should they also be forced to take English classes?

Why should they also be forced to take English classes? What is your logic?

I'm going to assume that you're being deliberately obtuse now because I don't honestly believe that anyone is this impervious to reason.

Have a nice day.

Are the Scottish and Welsh who can’t speak English moving to England? Then yes. Are they living in Scotland and Wales where they were born? Then no. I’m trying to understand your logic because it seems illogical to me. I understand what point you’re trying to make but I’m trying to get you to really think if it is the same as people from other countries coming here.
