I've used the first 30+ in a memo, in the order the Times provided below. I got bored and decided to watch Taggart (without subtitles), as it was more stimulating. Maybe someone with a longer attention span could use all 200 and blog the result?
Across-the-piece this LA has Actioned for Advocate Agencies who have an Ambassador who is Area based and Area focused.
Autonomous Baseline decisions have provided Beacon Benchmarking and established Best Practice via Blue sky thinking.
Achieved from Bottom-Up decision processes and CAA's with a Can do culture and Capabilities.
Capacity and Capacity building has been Cascading down and while this should be Cautiously welcome, the Challenge Champion, who enables Citizen empowerment for the Client in Cohesive communities is still needed to encourage Cohesiveness and Collaboration.
Commissioning Community engagement in an effort to Compact Conditionality and Consensual Contestability in a Contextual scenario will further enhance Core developments and forward the Core Message enwrapping the Core principles and Core Value of Coterminosity.

Ken whit ye mean aboot Taggart, extremely weird accents.
ReplyDeleteSomething like mockney; psuedoweegie?
What, no global?
ReplyDeleteI've never been able to decide if it's a deliberate piss take or not. It reminds me of Dick van Dyke in Moary Porpins! (BTW, the subtiles crack was aimed at that Labour party bod who needed to show how much of a gent he was to Hateful Hattie last week.)
ReplyDeleteOldrightie, Local Authorities have been refused the franchise on Global. It's a trademark of Gordon Brown(Global)Soluyshins Inc.
ReplyDeleteThey forgot 'outreach' too.
ReplyDeleteI just re-read your thirty word piece and it looks just like some of the nu-speak tripe that comes through our doors and onto our desks.
ReplyDeleteJust use the correct words and phrases plus the odd joiny up word to link them together and, hey presto you have a Righteous pamphlet which says nothing but proves the authors Righteous credentials.
Our challenge must be to return all such rubbish and demand they reproduce it in English.
That is exactly what it is. A say nothing pamphlet.
ReplyDeleteBack in the eighties, a colleague and I wrote all our service reports using words that we had made up. We did this for a week and no-one said a word. We knew they had read them, they had even discussed them, but not one manager dared to admit that they hadn't a clue what the reports meant. It was a classic example of the Emperor's New Clothes sydrome.
