The government should make English courses free and immigrants should only be encouraged, not forced to learn basic English
@9MGYMP52wks2W
I dont want to say they should be made to but if we could offer free English courses it would be helpful to them
@9HZKYP2 3wks3W
No, but provide more funding to make English language learning more widely available and free to those who cannot afford to pay.
@9M3843R3wks3W
Yes, but their ability to speak or understand English should not limit their ability to live and work in the country that they have chosen to settle in.
@9M37GWZ3wks3W
Yes as realistically if they can't speak English they can't reasonably work in the UK and are showing they are only here for hand out benefits
@9M2HSGK4wks4W
They shouldn't be required, but should be supported in learning the language, as it will help them integrate. We should also embrace and make an effort to understand their language and culture, and help them understand ours.
