Dear All, I have spent years discussing ,arguing, disagreeing, disputing and finally agreed to just have a very high level refernce to UN DECLARATION on human rights and INTERNATIONAL Covenant on civil and political rights That all Not writing an essay nor a book. The more precise ,concise, general and high level, the better Regards Kavouss 2015-08-07 0:13 GMT+02:00 Nigel Roberts <nigel@channelisles.net>:
And I agree with Greg. Again.
But in British English, that '500 year old colloquialism' is current idiom.
Where I sit, it carries absolutely no hidden meaning or (a more modern idiom) "dog-whistle politics".

I really don't think using a 500 year old colloquialism "cheapens the discussion." I also find it ironic to find this admonition in a discussion about, inter alia, freedom of expression. Political correctness, trigger words, and other such stuff are a not inconsequential threat to freedom of expression and freedom of ideas -- starting with a kernel of good intentions, and then becoming quite damaging....
