The government should make English courses free and immigrants should only be encouraged, not forced to learn basic English
@9N2KGB93 days3D
I don’t think it should be a requirement but I believe that language learning courses should be provided to immigrants in order for them to learn English so their financial situations are not strained
@9MZ4T264 days4D
No, but we should do everything possible to help them to learn English easily and for free when they settle here.
@9MW3F8J6 days6D
Yes, but with exceptions for asylum seekers and groups who may be unable to learn English (due to age, learning disabilities etc)
@9MT2LGJ 6 days6D
They should be encouraged but not required and free language courses should be provided by the government
@9MRV4RH7 days7D
I believe they add to the diversity of our country but I think the government should provide basic lessons to help them in their everyday life
