To get around this British MP's use alternate phrases, instead of saying "you sir/madam are a liar" they say they are being economical with the truth.
A rose by any other name. :thumbsup:
That reminds me of a tidbit of British history. It was said that Lady Astor told Winston Churchill, "Sir, you are an intolerable drunk!" To which Churchill replied in turn, "Madam, you are exceedingly ugly. The difference between you and I is that in the morning, I will be sober."

It's funny how we can't criticize the "Annointed One." If you do, they'll call you a big fat racist and say you love the Klan or something. The House wants to ban the words "liar, intellectually dishonest, and hypocrite" They love to divide people by race, really skin color, even though we're all from a single human race.
