Councils told what
not to say!!!
BBC NEWS | Magazine | Why do councils love jargon? Theyve been told 100 words not to use when 'in communication with the public'. Had a look at some of them words never heard of some of them but talk about gobbledygook!!!

Re: Councils told what
There is too much jargon, the sound of buzz words which covers up the plop of bs being deposited. I myself am proud to eschew obfuscations.

Re: Councils told what
I must say one of my particular black hates is the use of the the word "yourself" when the speaker means to say "you".
