More newspeak out of England

There is, apparently, nothing as divisive as asking people to join up with you. Or at least that’s the Reuters take on the very important squabble in England right now about veils. I leave you to interpret the story yourself but, as you read about Blair’s call for Muslims to integrate better with British society, consider the headline Reuters gives the story: “UK Muslims say Blair’s integration call divisive.” If that’s not newspeak, I don’t know what is. Maybe it’s appropriate considering that Orwell envisioned England as the home of his 1984 world.
