Well, OK if it's some form of jackspeak, that's one thing. But as bandied about by politicians and chip-wrapper scribblers, it IS bolleaux!
Or, if I might put it another way, use of the rich, historical argot of jackspeak is to be greatly encouraged amongst naval folk, but should not be hijacked by ignorant politicians and journalists who have never served in the Royal Navy.
