Rhyming slang is a specific form of the Queen's English that was invented and used by the Royal Barrow boys during the second Punic war, so that they could continue selling their fruit undetected by Napoleon. Today, the ancient tradition is continued by hereditary cockneys and the Sun newspaper, which refers to itself as "The Current Bun" in the vernacular. Its readers are known as "cunts" - a truncation of this monicker.
