          Re: Political vocabulary

          Matt Hancock is incredibly keen on saying "incredibly" - actually, quite a few at Parliament are, I saw an interview with a pair of MPs, one Conservative and one Labour, on Newsnight this week and they managed three incrediblys each in the short time they were on.

            My current favourites:
            "self-isolating”,
            “pandemic”,
            “quarantine”,
            “lockdown”
            “key workers
            ""tiers""

                      "Jolly" when used as an adjective being the sort of word that Old Etonian toffs like Johnson come out with - I doubt if I've ever been in a conversation where someone has used it in my life.
