The LANGUAGE environment variable in this bug report shows that you can indeed 
change the language. Your value seems to be "LANGUAGE=it_IT:it:en_GB:en_AG:en". 
So, maybe the issue you are reporting is simply a misunderstanding of how that 
tool works.
You drag the language entries to your preferred order. If a translation for the 
first language is not available, the application will try the next language in 
that list. The entry "English" is always the last entry in the list. All 
entries below "English" are ignored and will appear in grey colour. If you want 
to change your desktop language, drag the desired language to the top of the 
list.

Can you please confirm if this works?

** Changed in: language-selector (Ubuntu)
