Idiots

As you may have heard, the car show presenter Jeremy Clarkson has said the wrong thing on a BBC TV programme.

This of course is nothing new. Clarkson has ranted against gays, cyclists, women drivers, people from Liverpool, all manner of minorities. He does it, not to offend, but to draw attention to himself, something he does rather well. He is famous all over the world.

When the above happened (you will recall we are getting towards Christmas and many celebrities have DVDs coming out; Clarkson has two) the self-righteous Guardian newspaper ideotically demanded an apology, as if in a conspiracy to make him more money. Since then, 21,000 people have complained to the BBC.

It makes me want to slap each and every 21,000 of them

LIGHTEN UP!

PS I am indebted to Heresy Corner for the statement by Dave Prentis, General Secretary of the UNISON union which includes this jaw-dropping drivel: 'The One Show is broadcast at a time when children are watching - they could have been scared and upset by his aggressive statements. An apology is not enough...Whilst he is driving around in fast cars for a living, public sector workers are busy holding our society together... they deserve all our thanks...'

Good grief.

GOOD GRIEF!
