Everyone's been watching too much American television, I think. No big deal.

It is a big deal. We can't all start going around speaking American, reg. We must have some standards.

But it is and always has been a recognised legal term to cover the areas of murder and manslaughter - where there is doubt it should be used. They stole it from us first*, a, we should take our language back.

Dorset was referring specifically to murder, though.

He was but were the reports and releases he was referring to, specifically doing so?

We should be told
