Tried to find an English to Pidgin online translator, but the only one I found was shit, with nowhere near as hilarious results as on the BBC website. :(

I have to think some broken down closeted /pol/tard is responsible for BBC pidgin. I shall tell his story in the tradition of his people. Greentext.

>Be me, Anon working at BBC
>Boss walks in. "We gotta go to another diversity meeting Anon. Let's go"
>facepalm.jpg; it's the third one this week. Losing my mind
>Some transsexual African is hosting this one. Insists we all call it "Xem". I can feel my blood pressure rising.
>Apparently we have not met the corporate mandated representation quotas. Xem turns to me "why have you not approved the latest projects to get greenlighted?"
>Mental capacity starts breaking. The shows were shit. The directors running them dont know wtf they are doing and trained monkeys could replace the writers.
>Calmly say "we don't think they are economically feasible, Xem".
>Xem starts going off about how the point of the BBC is to build a community, not make money. Starts saying I need sensitivity training.
>Jazzmusic stops.jpg. my sanity breaks. I start to powerlevel.
>"You want more representation Xem?! Fine! Let's take everything and anything from anyone with a milligram of melanin in their skin! Everyone gets a show! Hell, let's create a news desk where everyone speaks Pidgin english too! It will be great!"
>room goes silent. Xem looks at me. I close my eyes to await my firing.
>"What a great idea Anon!" Xem exclaims.
>Wat.png
>"That is just what BBC news needs to fill out its representation quota! A pidgin language division!"
>Everyone at the table starts clapping like seals. I look around the room wide eyed.
>Xem continues "since it was your idea, go ahead and put it together! This will be great!"
>Now I am the producer for BBC pidgin. Time to get writing

Government-owned broadcasting is dying because people have much better alternatives that don't spew constant bullshit and advertisements at your face, but gubmint don't wanna lose their precious pet project. One day UK residents will receive a notice that henceforth every single citizen will pay a flat tax to cover the cost of BBC. You will be forced to pay for a service nobody wants from the government anymore, TV or no TV.

Can someone explain to me what the hell legitimate purpose is BBC Pidgin supposed to serve? Looking it up it's basically a language that's used to communicate when you don't know how to speak to each other, which to sounds like it's less of a language and more like advanced gibberish. I imagine I've gotta be wrong on that and that it's more logical then that surely, they can't be stupid enough to write literal gibberish, so please can someone correct me.
