Mayor of French town of Béziers insists use of English in Brussels should be axed

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3661838/Au-revoir-English-French-say-language-no-legitimacy-kicked-Europe-Brexit.html

While listening to the ramblings of a Mayor can be easily dismissed in theory, we've seen they can be quite dangerous in the long term.

Did they speak English or translate all documents in Brussels before we joined in the 70's ?

Why was every MEP wearing cans when speeches or debates in progress in the Brussels parliament or was it Nuremburg I saw them ?

English is the common world language, so he is being a pompous, outraged French Maire. Nothing new in that. :)

^^^ French is a lovely, but complex and impracticable language. Far easier for normal use is English. At a basic, communicative, level English is quite straightforward. Just not having the gender difference in nouns and the following complexities of adverb agreement makes it quicker, simpler and easier to learn.

I mean to say 'La prostate' and 'Le vagine', honestly! Look them up if you need to. :)

English is one of the official languages in the Republic of Ireland so they'll need to keep it.

Tut, tut Jourdain. Adverbs do not agree with nouns, only adjectives.

^^^ Sorry, Jackdaw, thought I'd typed 'adjectives' -- I have big problems with this keyboard so I should have checked more carefully. :(
