I don't know whether this is wokery or whether Lloyds Bank has completely taken leave of its senses. According to yesterday's i newspaper, they have introduced an "inclusive language guide". To be avoided are "guinea pig" because its use may not be "inclusive of vegan colleagues", "headless chicken" because of its association with animal cruelty, and "widow" because it could remind people of a traumatic event (they recommend that the utterly inappropriate word "separated" shoud be used instead).

It seems that some people won't be satisfied until our English language has been mangled out of all recognition.
