A leak reveals more words banned by National/ACT :
strategy
blueprint
engagement
socialisation
collaboration
co-ordination
We’re destroying words – scores of them, hundreds of them, every day. We’re cutting the language down to the bone.
The server will be getting hardware changes this evening starting at 10pm NZDT.
The site will be off line for some hours.
Don’t forget; Ethics – the word banned from consideration when planning genetic engineering experiments when that nutter Smith got stuck into the Ministry for the Environment.
It can only be good to get rid of socialisation. The word stinks.
Except when preceding “of the means of production, distribution and exchange”.
Nice to see where you stand on free speech
What on earth is wrong with “co-ordination”? And wouldn’t it be nice if we actually had a “strategy”?
Where are these alleged to be banned?
Ahh, I like to say that out of fairness, ACT has nothing to do with this. Just because we’re politically aligned with National doesn’t mean we’re endorsing this.
You’ll have to excuse me, but where is this coming from? I’m out of the country so who is banning these words and where is this list coming from?
I gather these are instructions to the departments and ministries about what should not be in documents. It isn’t just from one, apparently it is from a number of them, and leaking out through a number of the blogs and a few press statements from unions. There is one of our posts a week back that should provide a start point
I suspect that the anti-PC team of Mapp and Brownlee.
Labour were worse at this by far but not a peep out you about this
