Who Said It First in Parliament?

Random November 26, 2020 admin

I like this web-site, you can type in a word and it mentions when it was first used in the House of Commons.

It currently still only has data from 1919 onwards, but it’s still intriguing. In the above image, apparently the first time that the word Thatcherism was used was in 1978.

This site is the ‘fascinating’ (OK, it’s not that fascinating I admit) story of my travels around the world over the last few years. I’m conscious that there is so much more to visit, and I’ll do my best to carry on travelling as much as I can. I wouldn’t take anything too seriously, because I’ve rarely managed to…..

For previous adventures, here’s 2013-2018 and also 2019.
