I got my rent statement today, and as I had to phone them on another matter, I asked the (very nice and friendly Lady) what was the purpose of an A4 sheet of paper with 28 languages printed on it, giving me no clue what is was for.
Apparently because of this bloody drive with diversity, it has to be included so that some foreigner who can't understand English can tick the box next to their language and send it back so that the Office can send statements etc in their language.
 If people want to live here, then learn bloody English and stop a waste of a sheet of paper being sent out.
She told me that they are so tied up with this diversity malarky, that they now get bollocked if they ask for someones Christian name, in cased it offends some idiot with a different religion...

I wonder if this happens in other countries, especially the ones where some of these people come from........maybe in Europe perhaps, I don't know.

All in all, it is another bit of bureaucracy designed to annoy me.
There, I feel better now....

I didn't know you spoke English on the island  . I thought you had your own peculiar language, something a bit like Manx or the weird mumbo-jumbo that Fred waffles on about

Do not mock the unique people that are amongst you all.......

Unfortunately there wasn't a box of gibberish for me to tick for all this compliance and diversity that seems to be all the rage these days.

Please give me a time machine to go back 50 or so years to civilisation again...

It would have saved a lot of paper if they used a similar single sheet of paper that said in each language

"This is England. We speak English here. If you make a reasonable effort to learn English you're welcome, otherwise, fuck off."

We could probably do with signs to this effect on the IOW ferry and both bridges from Wales too.

And while we're at it, why not relocate Hadrian's Wall along the border with Wales... and bring back conscription to defend it?

That just about sums up things rather nicely............Plus add in bloody great big capital letters on the white cliffs of Dover....."Piss off we are full."
