BBC News text :
[Oxfam has come under fire after issuing a new 92-page guide on inclusive language to its staff, the Mail reports. The paper says the guide describes the word "headquarters" as "colonial", suggests "local" may be offensive and says the phrase "people who become pregnant" should be used instead of "expectant mothers". It quotes former justice secretary Robert Buckland calling the guide "totally bizarre" and questioning whether it is a good use of the charity's time and resources.] ![]() |
