Police officers to learn English ahead of Euro 2012

About 40,000 Ukrainian police officers will learn English in preparation for Euro 2012 Football Championship, Ukrainian Deputy Interior Minister Viktor Ratushniak has said.

They will be learning useful phrases like “mind how you go sir”, “may I help you?” and “I think sir has had far too much fun for one evening and it’s probably best if he toddles off to his hotel now.”
