british postmaster refuses to serve non-english speakers

I don't know what to make of this... Deva Kumarasiri, a Sri Lankan-born postmaster who lives and works in England, has apparently decreed that his post office counter will not serve customers unless they've bothered to learn English: I'm standing up for Britain, says Sri Lankan postmaster who won't serve migrants who won't learn English.

He says he's doing it because he's proud to be British, and standing up for the once-great nation of Great Britain. Right, because refusing to serve non-English speakers will somehow put the Great back in Britain. I think the guy has a seriously misguided sense of national pride.
