Jeremy Clarkson

Clarkson’s Farm has as much to do with actual farming as Postman Pat has to do with Royal Mail!

I don't think most people will worry about it. Never read the Sun.

You sure about that? I mean absolutely informed?

Ooh I don't know. Many farmers have sung his praises since the programme began. Plenty of evidence to be found online.

He's supposed to be obnoxious and offensive. That's what he does and he's obviously appealing to many.

I doubt he actually means what he says in a lot of his articles.

He should not have said that, I agree. But in spite of that I find him entertaining and funny, mostly. I like his political un-correctness. And his farm programme is lovely, really interesting and informative and amusing. I loved it.

Is this the sort of rhetoric against women that Markle highlights?

She is right then.

There is something pathological, repulsive and crass about late middle aged men obsessing over a woman as highlighted by Clarkson and Morgan.

He’s a ghastly man, they should give him the flick.

The KKK could not have put it better.

Perhaps he is a member?

I don't like IF as a person but I believe him to be a good writer. However he writes to deliberately shock the reader and sometimes goes too far. I thought his farming programme mocked himself but also underlined the problems facing our farmers.

You would be better off watching Countryfile.

It is always about Clarkson, his writing is boorish.

He's an obnoxious pillock: enough said.

His views reflect a the view of a lot of people who are too polite to express them so graphically, I am surprised the Sun printed it unedited - or maybe it was edited!.
Not to many the Clarkson seriously.

I’m not 100% certain what this means, but it’s really made me laugh😂

Appalled by Clarkson, by the Sun and by all his supporters and apologists on this thread.

How can anyone apologise for a man with a mind like a running sewer?

And we wonder why people are increasingly comfortable with spewing out hatred and vile accusations about people they have likely never met! National newspaper editors actively commissioning and printing this kind of rubbish should have a long hard look at themselves.

Plenty of vile hatred written about Boris Johnson, Nigel Farage, etc.
but that seems to be okay.

You either allow all opinions - or you ban everything.

I'm not a supporter, I am not apologising for him, but if you don't take him too seriously some of his stuff is funny.
An elderly colleague of mine taught him at school and said he was an obnoxious toad, very disruptive and rude. He was however weirdly funny and entertaining, and certainly memorable all these years later.

Jeremy Clarkson writes with his tongue firmly in his cheek hoping to invite just such outraged responses as are simply demonstrated in this thread. He adopts his 'Jeremy Clarkson' persona. It's his job.

He’s telling his truth as he sees it. And aren’t we all entitled to do that now?

So those who say it doesn’t matter, no one listens, it’s his job to say disgusting things etc etc - would yiu want your children and grandchildren to share that view?
I certainly wouldn’t. I’d be ashamed if anyone I m close to expressed disgusting inflammatory views like this

Running a naked woman of colour and throwing s…t at her is exactly what was carried out by the KKK in the southern states of America during the time of lynching etc.

It is excitement to violence and racist.

I don’t think it’s excitement, surely?

The Queen consort needs to be more careful in her choice of companions at private parties.

Queen Elizabeth would never have attended such parties.
