British Prime Minister David Cameron has called for women immigrants(移民) to Britain to learn English within 30 months, or be away from the UK. The plan targets Muslim women joining their husbands already in Britain. Cameron said his plan would help Muslim women immigrants who spend most of their time at home.

Cameron wrote on Monday that 190,000 Muslim women speak poor English and 38,000 Muslim women speak no English, although they have lived in Britain for years. Their lack of English socially isolates(使隔离) them, he said. Cameron said his plan will help all migrants.

Cameron said people who do not speak English often live apart from British society. He said they are more likely to be alone at home. He said he believes his plan will help keep the country safe. He said the government will spend more than $28 million for English classes for migrants. The classes would focus on immigrant woman living in isolated communities. The government said classes would be in homes, schools and community centers. Travel and childcare costs would be paid.

The government says the plan would take effect(生效) in October. Female immigrants must pass an English test within two-and-a-half years of their arrival, or face away from the country. That threat would remain even if they have children in Britain.
