Ordinary British racists have been in shock for the last two weeks over the BBC’s decision to allow BLACK playwright Bonnie Greer onto the panel of Question Time. Thousands gathered at the BBC studios in Shepherd’s Bush, many bearing monkey-shaped placards; others, dressed simply in white, chose to carry burning crosses.

“I have a right not to hear that evil woman’s ghetto-babble” said one masked protestor as he tightened a noose on a nearby tree.

Whole families also converged on Wood Lane. The Mitfords from Dagenham, east London brought a giant papier-mâché model of the ship Empire Windrush emblazoned with the slogan “FUCK OFF BACK TO JAMAICA!”

Ms. Greer’s appearance has also sparked international debate. Former Rhodesian Defence Minister, the late P.K. van der Byl, currently in London to promote his autobiography Munt Hunter, said that he was “very sad that the BBC [he] grew up with and held in such high regard has made one of the biggest mistakes in its proud history.”

Presenter David Dimbleby, whilst reluctant to comment at first, conceded that he had seen Greer “stealing from her own complimentary goody-bag” before recording took place. “She hasn’t got a shred of dignity,” he added.

If the police choose to take the matter further, it won’t be the playwright’s first run-in with the law - in 1998 she was convicted of stealing her surname from the noted Australian feminazi Germanine Greer.
