The English have often had incomprehensible accents. My father worked for a farmer who was completely English and that I literally could not understand.

My concern is more the political manipulation of language the BBC seems to do like "Sexual assault survivor" and "Decolonising the curriculum". This are things that were never used in the language before and do not actually make sense on their own terms.
