I was in London this summer.
The first day I was there I don't know exactly how long I walked around in public before hearing anyone speaking English, but it was probably close to 2 hours. There was a lot of French, German and other Euro languages but the number of non-euro languages was incredible.
It's a shame really because England is such a nice place and the people are as well.
Visit while it's still somewhat English.
