I'm following with interest this debate about UK funding for
English-as-a-foreign-language classes; all the more so via LGPOLICY-L because,
not being in England, it's not as easy for me to scan the UK press. But perhaps
I am too English; when I saw this subject-line, I mis-parsed it in what you
might call a typically English way by reading it as being about an MP who was
angry about the social-class-obsessed English society and the opportunities
thus denied to his foreign constituents, or something like that.
Yours neutrally
