A Sri Lankan born sub postmaster did the same thing a few weeks ago over here (refused to serve people who dont speak English) - in the UK I'm pretty sure its technically illegal (as it can legitimately be shown as discrimination on grounds of race) but I expect prosecuting would just give the bufoon even more attention which he clearly craves so I dont see the point (and the tax payer would have to pay any fine, which would just be paid back into the state - less the administrative cost of doing it...)
One the things I need to look at in myself is that I speak no other languages other than very basic German. Dealing with partners in Europe its just embarassing how everyone speaks tolerable English and hardly anyone in my company can speak anything else (other than a girl who actually IS from Germany, and a guy from Belgium)
