00:00In terms of language and people having to have higher skills in English, I think that's very fair because if I'm going to another country, I would like to, like just the basic, obviously if I'm going to holiday, it's not as important, but if I was going to live in another country, I would, I would learn the language.
00:15So I think it's fair enough that people can get by in England if they were by themselves with no one else, just for personal like safety and whatnot. I wouldn't go to a country like by myself if I didn't know how to speak the language.
00:27It's helpful to know and speak the English language really well as you're able to integrate with society and live in the UK more comfortably.
00:36But equally in this era of AI and translation software that's so openly available, I don't think it's necessarily a prerequisite to live happily and comfortably in the UK to need to have to speak English fluently.
00:49I think it's important that it still remains a really diverse country with lots of different accent varieties and dialects and other languages.
00:58So keeping that diversity.
