The new way to complain is through the medium of song.  More specifically choir-complaints.  In case you haven’t seen it, here’s the Complaints Choir Of Birmingham voicing their grievances about the changes in Birmingham in recent years. (Thanks to Anthony Mayfield for posting about it).  It’s nearly 9 minutes long, so they clearly had a lot to get off their chest.  It’s also received 350,000 hits, so a lot of people are interested in hearing their gripes.  According to YouTube, the complaints choirs have now spread to Helsinki and Hamburg.  So where do we start…"manchester, manchester so much to answer for…".

UPDATE - I’ve just watched this video through again. What a boring bunch of moaners.  They had the opportunity to do something really witty, controversial and insightful and all they manage to moan about is people pinching their biscuits, dog poo, bus drivers that don’t speak (would you?) and having to work for a living.  Get a life guys, or alternatively write something really brilliant.  Come on Manchester, maybe we should show them how to really complain.
