I call out all cheaters the same, doesn't matter where they are from (for example Jack from Australia, Sun Yang from China or Paula Radcliffe from GB). Sorry that i don't want to be part of your cheap agenda where it is only allowed to criticize certain nations.

There used to be the word 'milliard' in the past in Britain but they adopted the US system of saying billion for 'thousand million' in the 1970s. So not only has British English become so confusing due to many cultures' influence in the past but more recently to US customs as well.
