Ok, so i work for Mark as admin on his website, and am therefore biased, but still!!!! Charles Clarke admitting to supporting the arms trade, killing children, and various other evil little practices? Classic!!On the way out someone said "Mark , do you know Charles Clarke? Charles -Mark Thomas, Mark -Charles Clarke." Whereupon the erstwhile Home Secretary said to me, " The trouble with you is that I disagree with everything you have ever said." It's the nicest thing a politician has ever said to me.
It does indeed Psi mate. It says that 54% of the voting public to this award know that Brian Haw is talking pure sense. The war is unfair and extremely unjust and it does 'have to stop'...psikottix wrote:Brian Haw is a feckin' hero. I am extremely glad he won. I particularly like the expression of anger on Charles Clarke's evil face when Brian won!!! Blair got 8% of the vote...Brian got 54%. Says it all really!!!!
Charles Clarke? Gobshite looks like he choked on something. (Wishful thinking)..! He also looks like he shit himself when Brian Haw said he had a few things to say lmao ...psikottix wrote: The award was presented to him by Mark Thomas, who wrote an article just for us on my other haunt. The last paragraph creases me up every time!!!

The Bethnal Green and Bow MP looks set to shoehorn cover band Ugly Rumours into the top 40 this weekend with a cover of Edwin Starr's War, thanks to the efforts made by his Respect party and the Stop The War coalition.
Anti WART? Blimey, no wonder they didn't show it at the time!!!Lugh wrote:BBC BAN BLAIR
- Already national news have shown footage of the enormous anti-wart demonstration last Saturday, which they did not show at the time of the event!!
I'm composing a longer response to this right now Psi mate which taps into the entire 'inequality agenda' that really is the voice of American, British and European politics right now. Will post it later tonight / tomorrow.psikottix wrote:Anti WART? Blimey, no wonder they didn't show it at the time!!!Lugh wrote:BBC BAN BLAIR

Joking aside, I find the BBC ban on this song appalling. Absolutely appalling. Afraid to upset the government? A pox be upon them!!!! Is this to mean that all satire is to be banned?
Seriously disgruntled by this!!!!
I hope they get the point. I made this an OFFICIAL complaint, and have demanded an answer. They are legally obliged to take it seriously. I bet I just get fobbed off!!!!The banning of the song "War!", performed by the band Ugly Rumours, is despicable. It contains NO offensive lyrics, and merely highlights the way much of this country feels about the illegal war that our PM has dragged us into. The recent C4 political awards had Brian Haw voted most inspiring political figure for 2006. What does this tell you? Are you going to ban Mock The Week, or HIGNFY next? Pathetic!!!! I shall no longer be paying for my license...it would appear that the government already have you in their pocket. They can pay!!!

Just off for a damn good rant there myself!!!!
Was this by email mate? I can't see any recent entries on their boards at the link you've provided http://www.bbc.co.uk/complaints/ or by searching through them. I'm thinking that, if I responded to you on there, and then maybe a few other friends of ours did the same, we could log it all on here and other forums then wait and see if it gets removed because it too offends. Can you please 'pm' or post me the direct link if your complaint is online Psi? Cheers...psikottix wrote:My complaint:

Hope that info is of assistance to you!!!
