Clarkson. Finished?

Mexico insults (February 2011)​


Richard Hammond joked that Mexican cars reflected national characteristics, saying they were “just going to be lazy, feckless, flatulent, overweight, leaning against a fence asleep looking at a cactus with a blanket with a hole in the middle on as a coat”. May described Mexican food as “like sick with cheese on it”. Clarkson predicted they would not get any complaints because “at the Mexican embassy, the ambassador is going to be sitting there with a remote control like this [snores]. They won’t complain, it’s fine.”

It was pretty stale then. And most of this was just filler during the bland news section.

James May's comments are harmless though. If we couldn't insult other people's food the world would be a poorer place.

Hopefully we get more programmes with James May as despite being labelled dull and slow he is actually the more interesting and likeable of the lot.

Richard Hammond is a sycophantic little imp that shouldn't be allowed to drive cars without a chaperone on the second steering wheel.
 
We should really understand by now that everything Clarkson says is hyperbole and that paying him any attention serves no purpose. To me, he's totally different to someone like Piers Morgan, with whom the implication is supposed to be that he's saying sincere, intelligent stuff.

Well I suppose it's a matter of opinion.
I accept may is the less overtly racist of the 3 but him covering for Clarkson for me smacks of him defending Clarkson's continuous racism.

James May: 'Jeremy Clarkson is not a racist. I wouldn't work with one'

The Top Gear presenter leaps to his friend's defence

So how would May defend Clarksons "slope" joke on the River Kwai bridge ?

It seems the always offended want more than Jezzas blood, it wont be enough even if the memories of the trio including James May are expunged from history.

All the while the majority of people are watching TV as normal unfazed by the complainers, if we think about if we like everyone in a program we watch we wouldn't be watching anything.

I can't believe you just said that, what with free speech being dead and that.

Clarkson is still free to say whatever he wants, maybe just to less of an audience if he loses his TV gigs. Still, Sun readers will continue to lap it up.

Jeremy Clarkson censured for ‘slope’ racial slur on Top Gear

Jeremy Clarkson’s use of the word “slope” to describe an Asian man in an episode of Top Gear breached broadcasting regulations, Ofcom has ruled. The watchdog started an investigation after receiving

This one was a shocker n’all. Calling a local in Burma a ‘slope’.
 
Jezza does not give a fuck. Only apologised to stop the wokes crying and pissing their pants/knickers or the transgender version.

I read it as a genuine apology and rightly so.

What pisses me off is it’s never enough for some people. You can’t admit you made a mistake, apologise and move on these days.
