    Oh, have I gone too far? terribly sorry.

    Thats how it works, isn't it?
    Stewart Lee does a piece on Clarkson/Top Gear and he absolutely nails it, much in the same way you have here.

    Always thought he was a massive twat but he never bothered me that much, just avoided watching anything he was involved with. His comments about Megan are rotten, as are the people who allowed it to be published. 

    Can't believe people are defending him. Imagine reading his comments if that was your wife or daughter. 

    He was a guest at the Palace last week shortly before this was published, kinda adds weight to H & M's arguement doesn't it.....but of course you can trust everything you read in the Mail or The Sun about them.

    Clarkson is who you think he is. And an old dinosaur and a racist.

    Nobody above is defending his Megan comments are they?

    Love the guy, says it how it is.
    In his opinion -  been turning out the same act for years.
    And it works well, if it aint broke don't fix it. 

    Still better than any of the three they have on Top Gear at the moment and Clarkson's Farm is very funny and looking forward to Season 2. 
    He can be funny but I think he's a pretty unpleasant character and very overbearing.
    he's good on Millionaire 
    He's bloody awful at it. He doesn't annoy me as much as he should given how much I dislike his politics and shitty offensive comments, then again I don't see him on TV more than once a year. Still, I have seen him on Millionaire and he is probably the worst presenter of a prime time quiz show that I can think of. Borderline incompetent I'd say.

    He tells it like it is and the hatred is valid.

    I decided a while back that life was too short to waste it on never-ending soap operas about other peoples' problems, figured it better to worry about my own, so I know next to nothing about the Harry stuff. 

    So maybe that's why I can't understand why you could have pure hated for someone like that. Seems like a waste of energy to me!

    Clarksons just given meghan some material for their next documentary/another episode.

    No doubt she's already seen it what he's written. 

    A joke doesn't usually get perceived as a joke. People take themselves seriously.

    A careless stupid tweet from Danny Baker did make it to the documentary. It was obviously a genuine mistake and he apologised for it, but all it does is generate fuel for meghan to moan about the UK and label the country as racist.

    The best thing for media and publishers to do is just say nothing and don't react at all to any of the H&M sob story. 

    They have millions and millions, a lot of freedom now and they are probably still not happy

    He seems to have twanged the nut-sacks of the perennially offended so I'd say objective achieved.

    EDIT: Even the apology is a big 'fuck you'  :D

    If ‘perennially offended’ means against racism then I suppose you’re right.

    It isn't all that bad, he did say he didn't hate Meghan as much as he hates Rose West after all, the tofu eating member of the wokerati that he is.

    Well it clearly doesn't but if, in this instance, it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy to make that link then you crack on.

    Stewart Lee does a piece on Clarkson/Top Gear and he absolutely nails it, much in the same way you have here.

    I will gladly confess that Stewart Lee is my favourite comedian by far, and it's entirely possible I've seen that bit once or twice, so he's probably worthy of a credit.

    Spot on. Danny Baker is no more racist than Meghan Markel. He had been doing the monkeys dressed as humans thing for years. Such is his lack of racism  he didn’t even relate it to Markel being of mixed race.

    The media (or sections of it anyway) are just as keen on keeping the circus going as Harry & Meghan are. They sell papers/get clicks on the back of the latest outrage. H&M get to sell their story about how badly treated they are by the media for millions. The media wirte about them whinging... and so the wheel turns.  It's symbiotic. Ultimately, a large enough section of the public are interested enough in this tedious bollocks that they will click on stories/watch Netflix documentaries etc and while that's still the case, it will never end.

    That’s the sort of comment Jeremy Clarkson would make. I know plenty of Millwall fans, all pleasant family types and none of them racists

    Professional provocateur vrs a couple, whose new job it seems to be, to give tell tale interviews, without any comeback whatsoever, from those being accused. Upmarket Jeremy Kyle shite

    Has Clarkson got a new book out or something?
