Men in white suits



A grisly new phrase - or a new usage - has entered the language.

The Men in White Suits.

I first heard it on a radio traffic news report the other day: Looks like this one will last some time – I have just seen the men in white suits arrive.

Then yesterday’s Times carried a report from outside the flat where 2 young children were killed by their father. And yes, men in white suits were examining the scene.
