Simply because someone is in the UK doesn't necessarily mean they are English. A good number of people from the Middle East and the Far East make their way to 'jolly old England' for jobs and education. This, then, makes them part of the group where English is NOT their primary language. Given that, your statements criticising the English of Lone Wolf are probably out of line.

It's a diverse world we live in. It's nice to remember that now and again.
