The discussion quickly turned to bigger questions about language, integration, and what it means to live in Britain today.
Speaking about the sign, political commentator Andy Williams said: "I don’t really see what the problem is, it’s just making life easier for people."
Chloe Dobbs said: "No, I think that’s the problem. When immigration worked in this country, if you came here you had no choice but to integrate and learn English.

"Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to go about your day-to-day life. But now, you can come here, move to a community where everybody is from your country, and not have to speak English.
"Then you see signs everywhere in different languages. I understand in big tourist cities, or if you’re just visiting briefly, that’s fine like in Paris or on the metro.
"But when it’s in local communities, for locals who live here and should speak our language, I don’t think we should make it easy for them.
"They’ve got a choice. They should make an effort to speak English."
Fellow panelist Paul Cox agreed: "In order for us to prosper and be successful, we have to nourish our incumbent culture.
"It’s very simple: our culture relies on the English language. There’s been a lot of discussion, particularly on this channel, and sometimes on the BBC, about whether British culture exists.
"There is undoubtedly a British culture, and its foundation is the English language.

"Maybe it’s a shame we don’t speak more languages, but that’s the truth it’s who we are, it’s how we’ve come.
"If we want our community and society within the incumbent culture to survive and thrive, it needs basic principles.
"One of them should be that everybody is able to speak the native language. It’s very simple."
