Viewers have slammed the BBC for 'forcing politics' into London's controversial New Year's Eve light show after 300 drones made the shape of a BLM fist and shone in EU colours over London's skies.
Thousands of revellers eager to bid farewell to a miserable 2020 tuned into BBC One to watch the highly-anticipated pre-recorded display.
But outraged Britons slammed the show as 'ridiculous' after the drones made the shape of a Black Lives Matter fist and a turtle with Africa on its shell - alongside the NHS logo and a depiction Captain Sir Tom Moore in the sky.
The fist - which became synonymous with the Black Lives Matter movement which swept the globe this year - first appeared as spoken-word artist George the Poet read an extract of his poem Coronavirus: The Power of Collaboration.
The writer - who turned down an OBE last year due to the 'pure evil' of the British Empire - read: 'The future holds unexposed danger, but no stress. Humankind is no stranger to progress. And as we have proven, when we collaborate, progress follows fast.'
Many also pointed out that the first shape which appeared above The Millennium Dome - a blue and yellow bird - was in European Union colours, on the day Britain officially left the EU.
...
While it is unclear who organised or arranged the show, criticism has been levied at both London Mayor Sadiq Khan and at the BBC.

And they continue to watch the garbage
You are stuck at home, and this is the only “live” show.
What else can they do but complain?

Spoken-word artist... not a bad gig if you can get it. And then you can turn around and bite the hand that feeds you. With impunity.
They’re not even trying to hide their effin reset.
I hope they get the war they’re asking for.
What did they expect?
P-EU???
Britons rejected that nasty feces.
Wonder if New York City will try to one-up them.
All taxpayers fund it. Just as we fund the SLA, Weather Underground, Black Panther loving NPR-PBS.
Maybe George the Poet should take his black ass back to Africa.
Enjoy the freedom and prosperity of Liberia.
"You want to complain! Look at these shoes. I've only had them three weeks and the heels are worn right through."

He should put up his bonafides. Does he suck up to the Chi-Coms? Pol Pot? Castro? Stalin? Lenin? Marx? Hugo? Obama?
He would soon find out his Chinese masters are tough slave masters.
Also I’d wager that godless Communists killed more people (over 100 million in just a century’s time) than did the British Empire in their entire history.
Funny how people like George never do that. Because they know they'd be dead within twenty-four hours of arrival.
I won’t argue that point.
The Wokies have to usurp tradition and ceremony everywhere. Everything they touch turns to shit.
The BLM Fist looks like a duck with a Mohawk standing in front of an ATM.
Ah, another Python fan.
Well played.
They should have taken their cue from the leftists and burned the whole town down.
