BBC Pidgin

In an effort to get the most value for money from my TV licence, I thought I'd have a quick look at BBC Pidgin. This is in NPE as it is a official news outlet from our national and international state broadcaster, none other than the BBC.

And fking hell, it is quite possibly the coolest thing I've seen on the internet in many a long year.

I'm hooked and must now learn Pidgin.

Enjoy, and please post up any articles you may think are news worthy, i'll start with an extract of one about Harry and Megan;

BBC Pidgin said:

Some royals bin question why Meghan suppose dey protected from press harassment, dis na Prince Harry claim for di couple new Netflix documentary. 

Harry say some members of di family feel say negative treatment in di media na "a rite of passage" - but e say: "Di difference na di race element."

Ahh that’s why all the kids speak like they’re from ‘The Street’ when the reality is they are growing up in a detached house in Guildford.

Is it because I is black?

Reading it reminds me of the Scots Wikipedia where most of the content was by an American teenager.
