Thanks to several anonymous donors, I present further gems from the complaints log.
DAILY POLITICS
General
“I feel the programme provides information for the Taliban. A discussion programme lets the Taliban know what is going on from our point of view. I am all for free speech but not during a war.”
GENERAL TV
General
“I feel that the BBC should make a programme about electromagnetic weapons.”

i’m all for free speech too, but not if you’re a total pig’s gash
I saw a programme about electromagnetic weapons not long ago, there was this one guy called Ian McKellen and he used to be friends with this other guy called Patrick Stewart, but then they got bummed by some Nazis and Ian Mckellen turned into EVIL MAGNETO and Patrick Stewart started a school for gay polar bears with emotions. Or something. Anyway what it all means is that it’s only a matter of time before wolverines are equal to women. FACT.
The worst thing about the electromagnetic weapons suggestion is that IT’S NOT EVEN A COMPLAINT.
I like the idea of the King Taliban flicking over to Newsnight, watching carefully, notepad in hand, Risk board set up, and thinking “Aha! So the Imperialist pig-dogs’ weak point is the unpopular abolition of the 10p rate of tax! I shall use this to my advantage! Mwahahaha!”
As a Taliban myself, I’m eagerly looking forward to the BBC’s forthcoming series “How to build an electromagnetic gauss cannon with intercontinental range.’ I hear Michael Caine will appear in a future episode.
Perhaps this guy is right – Taliban TV has stopped broadcasting “The Daily Taliban” and now we have no idea what they’re up to!
I can picture the heads of the Taliban going, “Osama, get to the choppa the enemy is about to bomb the shit out of us, my proof, oh I saw it on the TV so it must be true!”
I feel that the government provides election opportunities for the Taliban. Any election held in this country could result in a Taliban candidate getting elected. I am all for democracy, but not during a war.
