Is Jeremy Clarkson A Cock Or What?

Yes. He is. But, since this isn’t exactly breaking news, lets move on.
The Beeb won’t fire him because he makes them a lot of money. UNISON should gently point out that but for the public service workers, some of whom work at Leeds Royal Infirmary and who were incidentally on strike yesterday, his chum Richard Hammond would be either be dead or suffering the effects of brain damage.
If Mr Clarkson genuinely begrudges them the right to a pension, then clearly gratitude has a short shelf life.
As to his annoyance at trains not running over the remains of railway suicides, I’ll listen to his opinions after the following conditions: when he has witnessed a suicide, when he has helped to deal with shocked crew and passengers, when he has witnessed the family of the dead person being informed and finally when he has helped clean up the aftermath.
Until then Mr Clarkson, you’ve not the faintest idea what you’re talking about and are an oaf.
An oaf with an audience of millions, but still an oaf.
In the words of the Internet: Don’t Feed the Troll.
I’ve no idea where he was coming from on the pensions thing other than perhaps a need to be controversial. There’s plenty of others who don’t agree with the strike! As for the other part i think his idea is that if someone is selfish enough to throw themselves under a train then the passengers on the train shouldn’t be inconvenienced by their actions, though i appreciate the impracticalities of this concept. Not to mention does anyone actually think he really believes what he says or thinks through his verbal rants?
Well Said.
Couldn’t have said it better!
Is he about to publish a new book by any chance, he always seems to get in the headlines when his books are about to be released.
I dont think calling him an oaf comes close, but then this is a “family” blog.
He has a DVD coming out surprisingly enough and there’s certainly at least one of “his” books just come out too
The more we let him say the bigger fool he shows he is, and the more frequently he will need to apologise, as he has now done, although one might query the actual value of the apology when it comes from the same source as the original poor choice of words.
One very slight problem here …
You are trying to put this person (whom I believe to be some sort of TV “personality” – I don’t have a TV ) in the same bracket with another active verb, and they don’t go together.
I mean …
“Clarkson” : – : “Think”
You what?
