“Ummm - last I checked we’re in America where we speak American type English ...”

And last *I* checked, the article was published by the Times of London (that’s in England, in case your feminist geography book says otherwise), which quite correctly uses UK English.

The article is from the Times of London.

Should it have been translated to protect you from viewing alternate usage?
