Re: The "Serious Fraud Office"?

It's just that I've noticed a propensity for the UK's elected officials to add the word "serious" to all kinds of things ... "The Serious Crime Bill", "The Serious Crime Act", "The Serious Organised Crime Agency" come to mind off the top of my head, there have been others.

I guess they aren't very serious in most of their efforts, so when they are, in all seriousness, REALLY SERIOUS NOW!, they have to flag it as such? Kinda makes you wonder, no?
