I agree, see my posting on the Leeds thread. Also from Rainboe
My pet hate is "there" instead of "their."
The overall standard of English is appalling.
The UK culture is now just so primitive.
All foreigners working for me have a much higher level of education and skills in several languages.
Anyone can use spellcheck but most simply do not care.
Any old spelling seems to be near enough.
