There has been a Plain English movement in state and federal government
in the US for some time, so I presumed that Great Britain also had a
similar policy. Apparently, it's relatively new for them to disapprove
of unclear legalese. Nonetheless, I give them credit for taking these
steps:
The flip side, though, is a problem with "banned words." The moment we
star banning words, we infringe on freedom of speech. And, as anyone
know knows me knows, that's intolerable--in the US, Britain, or
anywhere.
