Why when British people speak foreign languages do we take on their accent yet when foreign people speak our language you can distinctly hear their own accent?

there is probably a logical answer, it's just weird/funny..

I mean when you're learning it, like French in school, and you actually have to take on the accent too, I wonder if English lessons in France they talk with a cockney accent lol..

The one without the sock is the normal one, he or she has a legitimate issue, the other baby is just mental and making the conversation a confused mess.

Why can't I find the switch on my car stereo that stops the bloody traffic report cutting into my CD or ipod right in the middle of something I'm loudly singing along to?

I can answer the English in foreign countries question - the teachers mostly go to America to learn English and it's easier to learn from American films and TV shows like How I Met Your Mother, Two and a Half Men etc than it is to, idk, watch Coronation Street, so the teachers generally have American-ish accents and so do the kids, but because they're learning in their spare time by watching TV and using the internet to pick up English, they're not being taught in the same way that we are over here, hence the weird accents. They're not being taught completely by their teachers.
