Jeremy Clarkson dropped from Top Gear

A lot of hypocrisy here from those on the left. They are baying for his blood because he is the bete noire of them all. A right winger that is funny, good at what he does and loved by millions around the world. ( I'm not one btw)
I expected beacons lit all over the country, it reminded me of the utter joy at Thatchers demise.
To those rightly decrying Oisen getting death threats and Twitter abuse, Clarkson has had this stuff from leftwingers every week for years.
Enjoy his passing, he'll be back before we know it, probably on a bigger package.

The thing is, and this might be news to you, it is generally accepted that you shouldn't just go around punching people.

Listen to your god

"The problem is that television executives have got it into their heads that if one presenter on a show is a blond-haired, blue-eyed heterosexual boy, the other must be a black Muslim lesbian."

See the thing with that is that he's obviously generalising. Blond-haired, blue eyed heterosexual man is an archetype. The kind of stereotype that people believe the left hate, while a black muslim lesbian is something stereotypically the left love.

It's hilarious how people could interpret this in any other way, i.e. that he hates blacks, he hates Muslims and that he hates lesbians. It makes no sense to come to this conclusion. Especially as no-one came to the conclusion that he only loves straight blonde men.

hahahaha this has proved how unintelligent you are - pedantic use of words doesn't hide a bad argument

1) "Whether I watch it or not is irrelevant" yet you insinuated I was a fan and made it relevant.
2) When economics involves more people than just two employees and an actual society in which income generated goes towards - it definitely matters more than your opinion. The welfare of a whole society versus the welfare of two employees. The welfare of the society is more important and the income generated from what Jeremy brings to the show can help in numerous ways which I will not begin to explain as I'll be here all night.
3) The public should have a say because they pay a bloody license fee - do you pay it. Do you know what its like to pay a legal fee and have no say in a matter?
4)Nothing to do with me, you or anyone else? It would be a entirely a corporate matter if the BBC was not a public corporation. However it is as the BBC is a "public" corporation - not a private one.

N.b No need for so many expletives on TSR.

Jeremy isn't a god, by any means, but he does really annoy the left, and that amuses me a lot.

I'm THE LEFT and quite like Top Gear.

Good on you!

Don't worry, by the time you get to Jeremy's age you will be even more right wing than him, I can sense it.

He doesn't want charges to be pressed, of course he is going to say that!

This is clearly a politically motivated campaign to attempt to silence him but it won't work. A million people signed the petition, he represents what most ordinary people think but feel they can't say. The people are heartily sick of political correctness.

He will be back bigger and better than ever, you can be sure of that lefties!

Yeah, if a 4 second soundbite doesn't save him from prosecution, what will?!

Jeremy knows as well as anyone with a modicum of sense and maturity that what he did was ****ing stupid and that the blame lies entirely on him. Face the facts; Jeremy killed Top Gear.

Top Gear will live on under a new name, and he will earn even more sponduliks and have still more opportunities to annoy the despicable pinkos.

It is called the free market. People want to watch his political incorrectness, that is why it was the most successful factual programme in world television. We don't see right on black lesbian muslims conquering the word of light entertainment from Norway to Japan do we?

Deal with it, humourless puritan lefty.

Ha, nah. Despite what you may think, Clarkson didn't make top gear. Producers, editors, camera crews, cinematographers and writers made top gear. Not to mention the non-commercial nature of the BBC and the respect it commands the world over that allowed the program access to so many locations.

Any other broadcaster would turn the show into one long car advert. I'd rather see it live on on the BBC with a different line up. My ideal cast: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Gordon Ramsay, and a rotoscoped cartoon depiction of Vlad the Impaler.

But this is not a left vs right thing.

You are quite wrong, Top Gear was nothing before JC came and will be nothing afterwards. Watch him create a new show with the other two guys and the original producer on a new broadcast network while the BBC successor series crashes and burns...

Nope. Clarkson was also a presenter on the original run of Top Gear that ended in 2001 due to dwindling ratings. Clarkson was there during the downfall. The 2002 relaunch that we all watched was a totally different program - the series only survived because it was completely revamped.
