Ha ha HA HA HAAA! It's a bin liner.   Reporter: By pun and quip writer Elgin Saddle.

Osama "Bin Liner" coinage - war on words latest.

The unease surrounding the controversy centering on the debate which rages concerning just who first coined the jokey moniker "Osama Bin LINER" mounts steadily, as it grows bigger in size.

Dominic Really, a systems analyst from Queen's Park, still staunchly maintains that he thought up the topical word-twist first and immediately told his colleague Robert who was sitting next to him. Robert claims that within 5 minutes he had e-mailed everyone in his address book – some 8 people.

Word commentators however are increasingly believing that a splinter group of office juniors in London’s west end may have been using this pun up to 20 minutes earlier.

Fears are also growing that there may be some truth in reports that a "note" was intercepted by the FBI, being passed between two ink-stained schoolboys at a smart comprehensive in Islington during Double French yesterday. This note is rumoured to contain the well-timed piece of name tomfoolery in question, among other random profanities and the words "Miss Jenkins swallows".

If you have any information which could help track down those responsible for creating this rather unamusing and worrying bit of wordplay, please contact Giles Brandreth at giles_brandreth@
