Election word jargon

I am looking and indeed hearing so much election word jargon that I think I need to record what it is and how crazy it all is.

One phrase that annoys me is 'THE RECOVERY'. This is a phrase that Brown always uses as do other Ministers in his govt. Maybe it has to do with a hospital emergency ward or a breakdown service for cars, but obviously they use it to refer to the economy in Britain.

But it is overused and has become such a bore. They all want to speak of the RECOVERY and I'm just fed up with it.

It's like the DEFICIT and other words that relate to the economy.

But no one speaks of the quality of life for people. Why not? It seems that all the parties are interested in is money and the economy. And maybe that's because their own House is not in order and it was a moral mess. Indeed one paper has described it as The Rotten parliament.

Then there is Nick Clegg who blasted Cameron for wanting to give married couples and civil union partners £140 a year. Small bucks, but who would knock it back. So Clegg described it as drivel - this by the man who claimed to have 30 lovers before he married. This from a man whose moral compass seems just way off beam. Drivel, Clegg thinks, and that is his best judgment of giving married couples some extra money. Perhaps Clegg wants more.

I will extract more words and phrases from this campaign to show how meaningless and useless they are to whole process of getting people's votes.
