Britain’s Got Talent star Susan Boyle is being cruelly taunted, intimdated and attacked by a gang of youths, it was reported last night.

Witnesses have claimed singing sensation Boyle, who suffers from Asperger Syndrome, is being ‘hounded’ by a group of 15 young people who live near her in West Lothian, Scotland.

A quick spellcheck would have picked up ‘intimdated’. It is insensitive, and probably wrong, to say someone ‘suffers’ from a condition – just say she ‘has’ it. It is ‘Asperger’s syndrome’, with an apostrophe ‘s’ and lower case on syndrome, not a cap.
