English a minority language in 1,300 schools - Telegraph

Read the aticle and we can all see where this will lead. We will water down the need to speak English and draft in more immigrants to teach their natural language or require all UK teachers to have at least one foreign language or be rejected

Better still why not drop English and replace it with 'harmonisation studies'?

Will we see a day when Gov'n forms actually have English halfway down the page?
