Jon Jon Jon, you have a whole lot to learn about the world around you. It's common style in the UK (and elsewhere) to use single quotes to indicate spoken text. Actually, it's also not uncommon to see double quotes referred to as "American quotes". So, when it comes down to it, there really isn't any "should be"—it's all a matter of style. (As an aside, it's also common in the UK to use word-spaced en-dashes instead of flush em-dashes to indicate abrupt interruptions or changes of thought, like what was in my last sentence.)
