The logic in the division of subjects is that social studies are abstract and difficult to
grasp in a foreign language, while math and science are easier to teach by demonstration.
Then there are the
foreign students — all those young Chinese and Koreans studying at Central St Martin's University of the Arts
in King's Cross, the European students on Erasmus exchange programmes around the country (doubly bad no doubt
in Mr Farage's eyes since it's an EU scheme, that also sends Britons to the Continent, where they might too pick up the habit of speaking these
foreign languages), the students from the Indian sub-continent studying engineering and computer science, students from around the globe trying to acquire or improve their
grasp of the English
language that can be their passport to a good job wherever
in the globe they come from.
Imagine waking up tomorrow
in a
foreign land with no money, no formal education, no
grasp of the native
language, no family, and having to take care of two children.
