Is it still an offence to use abusive language over the public

Was it ever? It is/was an offence to transmit obscene language
(wireless) at one time, but I'd guess that is rarely enforced these

What do you think malicious calls are and how they are treated?


You don't know the difference between malicious and abusive?

If I called you a c**t - that's abusive.
If I call you a thieving c**t - that's malicious.
