        @bencubby @smh completely agree, it's murder, that's it. The very term 'honour' associated with murder is abhorrent :-(

        Not ignoring the facts. Can be both 'honour killing' and 'murder'. Readers understand the nuance.

        that term should be outlawed. No honour in killing.

        @bencubby @smh agreed, time to retire this term. Why accept the framing of the murderer? We don't call terrorism "holy war".

        I reckon using that term also appropriates the ‘other culture’ guise which gives it that appalling ‘not our class, dear’ sheen
