You see, this is why I hate the internet. It spreads too much bad US cultural hegemonic shit (‘shit’ as in ‘stuff’).
The Metro is a UK newspaper that ought to know a lot better than saying “in hopes that” which is an ugly, clumsy American English phrase, recently imported. There is only one hope here, and the phrase in proper UK English is “in (the) hope that”. More elegantly, the ‘journalist’ recycling the press release supporting this cheap publicity stunt, might to have written “Hoping to help anyone looking…”
Anyways, I could care less and now I’ve got it off my chest you can all get off my lawn - especially those coming here to protest my views. (WIll you protesting for or against them?)
Would you like a sarcasm tag? /s
