French Benefits
A term coined by French economist, Emil Minty, in 1983. Known as FRINGE BENEFITS in the United States, France adopted this mantra to celebrate additional employee benefits approved by then president François Mitterrand. By 1984, most management level workers in Paris and Marseille were given a company car, subsidized meals, and health insurance.

grebo
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
