""And how well do I speak English? Using what standard of measurement exactly?""

Well if you were born in England, one would assume you can speak English.

Sounds like they are building up a budget for the cost of all those foriengers that need to be taught English, so they they can get the jobs us English need, That excludes me as I am retired.

Oh yes we want to look after all the foreigners that can't speak english, so that we can give you the jobs.

Grrrrrrrrrrrr.
