Podcast: Catching up in an age of global english
at 4:12pm on Friday, 17th August 2007
We're all off for a week now, so if you try and call the office, you'll probably get the irritating voicemail that we can't change that just says "DEMOS" in a rather sinister fashion. Sorry in advance. As a parting shot, here's a Demos podcast. It's Samuel Jones and Peter Bradwell talking about their pamphlet "As you like it" which was launched to a chorus of "what absolute drivel, what rubbish, what poppycock" back in March. Sitting outside St. Paul's Cathedral a few weeks ago, they talk about how globalisation is changing English and has removed the natural competitive advantage it used to assure for Britons. They also try and explain why it aroused such animosity in some quarters
