Word: dispatch box Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From dispatch (“important official message sent by a diplomat, government official, military officer, etc.”) + box. Sense 2 (“box placed on a table in a legislative debating chamber and used as a lectern”) is from the fact that in the Parliament of the United Kingdom dispatch boxes used by ministers and other Members of Parliament to carry important documents (sense 1) were formerly used as lecterns; these have generally been replaced by cases, usually made of wood, specifically made to be used as lecterns. Pronunciation: /dɪˈspætʃ ˌbɒks/, /dəˈspætʃ ˌbɑks/ 1. A box or case with a lock that is used for carrying dispatches (“important official messages”) and other documents. Example: Ministers are permitted to use ordinary lockable briefcases to transport information which has been classified 'Confidential' or below. For information with a higher security level (such as 'Secret') they are required to use dispatch boxes, which offer a higher level of security, and which are usually red. However a travel version of the despatch box is also available in black, which offers the same level of security as a red despatch box, but is designed to be less conspicuous. In practice Ministers use despatch boxes for transporting the majority of their documents due to the greater level of security they offer. Example: Confound it, man! You're being a bloody fool. Drop that pistol and come out with my dispatch box. I'll see that you get a fair trial. 2. A box that is placed on a table in a legislative debating chamber and used as a lectern for addressing the legislature. Labels: Commonwealth Example: It was about the only attempt at humour Raymond had made at the dispatch box that year, which may have been the reason so few members laughed. Example: Officials are used to finding graffiti on the priceless fixtures and fittings in the House of Commons chamber. Teams of French polishers regularly repair damage caused by tourists. But during a recent examination they noticed that the beautifully-carved government Dispatch Box was covered in strange black pen marks. At the next Prime Ministers Questions they stood watch, and caught the culprit in the act. As Gordon Brown gesticulated wildly with his black marker pen, stabbing at the papers in front of him and missing to hit the wood beneath, the awful truth was clear. The PM was the vandal. […] The boxes were a gift from New Zealand after the rebuilding of the House of Commons following the Second World War. The are modelled on the dispatch boxes in the Australian parliament and are made from a strong, teak-like wood from the rare Puriri tree and were thought to be almost indestructible.
Word: salami-slice Part of Speech: verb Etymology: From the way a large salami is reduced in size by having thin slices removed from it. Pronunciation: /səˈlɑːmi ˌslaɪs/, /səˈlɑmi ˌslaɪs/ 1. To engage in salami slicing. Labels: UK, idiomatic, informal, transitive Example: Lawyers and businessmen made fortunes in land deals and then leveraged profits to build more ticky-tack in fragile areas. A friend of mine boasts how his company broke the ban on subdivisions in the foothills. Vast areas were closed off to hikers. The city council and Pima County supervisors, for reasons I've never understood, kept saying yes. In the end Tucson quietly salami-sliced itself to death. Example: Congress should not be misled to believe that "salami slicing" indications and off-label prescribing practices will resolve the Act's current inequities. These trends will only proliferate problems with the Act. 2. To engage in salami slicing. Labels: UK, idiomatic, informal, transitive Example: So basically it means we are going to take an entire MEDAC out of the ability to contribute to the health care of the men and women and their families in uniform. There is no way that I can salami slice that. Example: I mean, I have a personal view that the approach to the budget has been to salami-slice across everything, so the good and the bad get cut equally. It avoids the very contentious decisions, but it also unfortunately means that some very productive stuff takes a hit, rather than gets prioritised.
