It would be crazy if they didn't learn English.

Well, I'm tired of hearing foreign languages being spoken whenever I'm in urban areas (Welsh is different as it is in fact a UK language).
You'd be surprised how many foreigners speak no or very little English (especially when it's convenient to them).

I've been to Wales many times and never come across this either. It wouldn't be good for Welsh businesses or tourism either if someone refused to speak in English* if able to do so to an English person.
* Which I would expect them to be able to do given that they learn English at school as a matter of course.
