Let me add that also in the UK, ATC uses non ICAO phraseology which is annoyin and a safety risk.
Eg. Turn heading 030 DEGREES... absolute crap!
" when established on the localiser, descend with the glidesplope" instead of Cleared ILS or Cleared Approach.
I've often had 'intercept the localiser, report established' followed by 'continue on the glide, switch to tower' as my 'stealth' approach clearance in the UK.
