May Must Reveal Her Duplicitous Deal!
The convention that legal advice to the cabinet is never published is enforced by the ministerial code.
=======
Theresa May imposes new layer of secrecy on Brexit legal advice
…but as The Guardian goes on to remind us, Section 2.12 of the ministerial code explicitly declares that if law officers, such as the attorney general, provide legal advice then cabinet ministers should expect to see the entire text.
We expect the in-crowd to keep as much information as possible from the mere citizens…
=
…because they see the common people as –
A, beneath them – and B, their enemies.
But now even the in-crowd is excluded from examining the full scope, all the implications, of Theresa The Traitrix’s dirty, duplicitous deal…

She refuses to tell even her own cabinet ministers?
Some very dirty tricks going on.
She has to go, as you say.

Traitrix! A new word? Or an old one that you have revived?
What you say is indisputable, and what May is doing is reprehensible, but it’s your use of that word that intrigues me.
Am I right in thinking that you are not very subtly goading the feminazis?
Words like ‘actress’ have been subject to PC disapproval, because for some reason some women in show business dislike being distnguished from ‘actors.’
They then justify their dislike as ‘feminist,’ which makes no sense to me because the word ‘actress’ at once tells us that they are female.
Are they ashamed of being female?

No, Pamela, this is not one of Ross’s neologisms ( if that’s the right word!) because after you asked the questions, I had a look in Google.
There it was, on Amazon, in a book by a man named Elton, published in1972, and he was referring to it being used in Reformation England.

I have no idea about the word or non-word traitrix but on the question of actor/actress even among Guardian contributors ( and contributresses?) there is a division of opinion.
This gives you an idea of the debate which to me is much ado about nothing.

What’s in an -ess or an -ix?
I still laugh every time I think about the Anglican arguments over ordination of women, to which Ross has referred more than once.
They were a sour-faced lot, always cross if anybody asked why they wanted to become priestesses.
