why list all questions?

Why is it that even though I have "show uk and ireland only" selected the majority of questions listed are from america? bit of a bummer when scrolling through to find questions you can help with. this is especially frustrating when dealing with questions on local authority and law.

    The questions are sorted by the portal that the user is on when they ask the question, not their home portal.

    If a user answers a question on the UK portal, and then proceeds to ask one, it will show as 'originally asked on Yahoo! Answers United Kingdom'

    You can find that information under each question - if it doesn't match the portal you selected then you have a bug, but if it does ........
