# It was a tad racist towards Nigerians
but I think the nationality of the gangsters was irrelevant albeit very foolish of Peter Jackson to imply any such links and a great film that is suppose to counter racism against asylum seekers falls down by implicit racism. Such a shame.

# As is usually the case with these kind of 'outrages'...
the nationality is generally arbitrary.

I don't remember thr French complaining the last Bond film was racist

# "They were showing Nigerians as corrupt, eating aliens, saying they have sex with aliens. I could not watch that."
I agree. It's unfair to stereotype Nigerians as cannibals and gangsters. Some of them are fraudsters and pirates too.

# This statement reads like something from Monty Python
"There is no country that does not have prostitutes and criminals but definitely most countries don't have cannibals, and we don't have cannibals in this country. We don't eat human flesh, it is definitely unacceptable," she said.

Dear Sir, I am glad to hear that your studio audience disapproves of the last skit as strongly as I. As a naval officer I abhor the implication that the Royal Navy is a haven for cannibalism. It is well known that we now have the problem relatively under control, and that it is the RAF who now suffer the largest casualties in this area. And what do you think the Argylls ate in Aden. Arabs? Yours etc. Captain B.J. Smethwick in a white wine sauce with shallots, mushrooms and garlic.
