In George Orwell’s 1984 the government attempts to reduce expression by replacing English with a reduced form of it known as Newspeak, from which this blog takes its name. However, what if Orwell was wrong and it is the over, and not under, use of language that reduces its meaning? This blog is dedicated to that over use of language and is lovingly collected treasure trove of hyperbole, exaggeration and downright nonsense.

The X-factor cometh
Very much looking forward to this evening's X-factor final. How many times will Louis Walsh use the prhases ‘you’re living your dream’, ‘you’re very likeable’ and ‘you made it your own’? More importantly, what do any of these have to do with winning a singing contest?
