The British Government is bringing forward plans requiring immgrants who marry UK citizens to prove that they can speak English.
news.bbc.co.uk...
I can just see them even attempting something like this in the USA and all the bleeding heart liberals complaining that this is discriminatory.
It's a requirement of Citizenship in almost every country in the world to be able to speak the language of that country, but is only enforced in a
handful of cases. In the USA, that language is ENGLISH, just like in England.
I find it hypocritical that the USA has a requirement for Citizens to prove they can speak English, but then politicians have to fund campaign ads in
Spanish to reach all voters (who are ALL US Citizens by Law and by law should all speak English) and there was even a Spanish language Presidential
debate during the last election.
Quit pandering to the Spanish speaking population - if they want to become Citizens, make them speak English and integrate into society. It's
hypocritical for ANY candidate to say that they are tough on illegal immigration, then to run campaign ads in Spanish.
