Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

The 'Re-Instate Jeremy Clarkson Petition' is here.

Go on! You know it doesn't make sense to sign this and get the arrogant tosser back on our screens.

Nearly 90,000 have done so far and so only another 60,000 signatures to go.

@KTHopkins BBC allegedly cover up Jimmy Saville, but Clarkson causes a "fracas" and he's suspended?!

@JeremyClarkson suspended: are we witnessing the sacrificial slaughter of the Golden Goose?

"Threw a punch, eh? Hmmm? It didn't do John Prescott any harm."

"Clarkson and Co. get their show viewed by 300m viewers around the world. I guess that means it makes money? But don't forget, that the BBC is run on subscriptions. So, even though it makes money, of course the BBC can get rid of Top Gear."

max (57449) - the real point of my comment was the expansion and huge strain that welfare costs imposed on the taxpayers under the current system

of course, we all and any gov't have to determine how the annual financial cake should be divided up

clarkson - not hugely fussed either way, though his programme is certainly very entertaining .... however, he is certainly has an excessively high opinion of himself, but that in itself is no reason to scrap a very popular programme and sack its main character

The Graun is out to get him...hardly surprising, he's got a fag (wrong kind) hanging out of his mouth.

Good to see Cameron is complaining about Miliband being able to do deal with SNP and Lib/dem, while he and the present tory party are considered too toxic by the former parties for any of them to consider an alliance or coalition with.

The voters are beginning to know a chicken when they see one!

and perhaps they'll also recognise EM as a turkey before it's too late

Class A turkey.

EM like the Labour party will rise like a phoenix above the ashes left by this torrid tory party.

After the election in May, is there any truth in the rumours that Redwood is going to run for leadership of the remaining right wing rump of the tories with Reese-Mogg as his bag carrier?

turkeys don't fly very well or for long

Not sure what is going on...but what about the other party's?



David Cameron and party leaders indicate they will take part in digital election debate: live

Prime Minister is urged to take part in televised debate before election day

how have we ended up with such poor people in gov
their should be a better system stopping uneducated
people with no financial degrees putting in to be a
MP we need people with knowledge not some silly wimps
thinking they can do the job .
the uk system must change for the good of the country
not for glory seekers

Is it me ?...or some grey squirrels seem to have a tinge of red in their coats : grey squirrels turning red ?...

MrT - you consider yourself as sharp, articulate, vocal, intelligent and only interested in the good of the country, so have you even stood as local councillor?
if not, why not?

RICHARD LITTLEJOHN: Too white. Too male. And too damned British. No wonder the Beeb wants shot of Clarkson




Cohen’s decision to pull the remaining Top Gear episodes will mean wasting hundreds of thousands, maybe millions, of pounds of licence-payers’ money already spent on filmed sequences. It will also incur massive compensation claims from foreign broadcasters.

He couldn’t get away with that if he was a director of a commercial organisation, answerable to shareholders. And what about the millions of viewers being deprived of their favourite Sunday night show?

Cohen cares more about pandering to the political prejudices and petty jealousies of his Left-wing peer group in those Shoreditch salons. And that means securing his place in history as The Man Who Sacked Jeremy Clarkson.
