This is a normal post Yes
but there's at least one truck driver that hasn't murdered a prostitute.

It was the one who murdered that family on the M6.

This is a normal post That is ridiculous.
Clarkson should be sacked over the fact that he's a blithering chode with nothing to contribute.

I find him quite amusing, though this, apparently, is a controversial viewpoint.

This is a normal post Hmmmmm, things are getting a bit strange in this country.
Doesnt Clarkson pretty much own Top Gear? How could they sack him?

This is a normal post there's no way they'll sack himover that
especially when he called Jamie Oliver a 'bit special needs' a few series ago.

This is a normal post Ok, let's calm down a minute
Yes, it is rather silly for an MP to be doing this, but given the fact he is an Ipswich MP (where the prostitues were murdered)
he would have to be seen doing something about it in his professional capacity, otherwise, he's not really doing his job properly.
If he didn't do anything, he'd probably come in for just as much stick from the locals for not airing concerns from a few people in the town.
his personal belief on the issue may be completely different, but he would need to be seen actively doing something about it.

This is a normal post As an Ipswich resident, who knew one of the victims
I can see this for the tedious oh-so-outré gag it is. It's not offensive to me, just dull, textbook Clarkson. Of course Chris Mole had to say something, as did the local paper and the manager of the rehab clinic in town (nice bloke). They may not expect results, but then the Daily Mail hasn't jumped on it yet.

I'd like to see Clarkson sacked, but not particularly because of this, because he's generally a massive ignorant fucking cock.

This is a normal post the 'calling for him to be sacked' bit, yes, I totally agree
given the recent events elsewhere with brand/ross, but the premise behind him complaining in the first instance is not.
/humble opinion only

This is a normal post In that he saw a joke on TV and didn't find it funny?
I could understand if he specifically represented truck drivers.

edit: I'm not being argumentative. I'm just avoiding doing any work.

This is a normal post hehe, no worries
It's not that I don't think he found it funny.
As I said above, his personal belief in the matter may differ from the general appearance he should be seen to give on behalf of those who voted him in.
After all, he may well have come in for stick for not speaking up or saying anything. Part of it definitely
jumping on the bandwagon, but the other part is being seen to do something, irrespective of if his personal views are the same or not.
Now, get on with work. Anything exciting?

This is a normal post He's just been interviewed on Radio 4
and he stated that not one of his constituency complained to him about it, it's just that he 'knows what they think' and is airing their opinion for them.
Christ if any of these people saw the sort of shit that comes up on this site their heads would explode...

This is a normal post hopefully
The bbc will man-the-fuck-up, and tell everyone to take some lighten up pills, 'cus they aint gonna let it happen.

Is a throw away joke really worth having him fired?

I also feel some politicians need to do the same thing, rather than pandering to everyone when they have reason to believe they are correct/doing the right thing about something. Though this would also require them to chin up and accept whole haeartedly when the evidence contradicts them. Which is apparently construed as weakness.

This is a normal post right last nose blow all my brain left so i have a clear head:
Clarkson made the "joke" and it is typical MrC: mildly reactionary, mildly irritating and mildly witty or attempting to be witty. I just thought when i heard it "5/10 see me, must get more incisive".

Clarkson is a clown and plays to this. Did I hear any specific mention to where DIM MP is from? no.
and it wasn`t left on a private individual`s answerphone.

He is a rebel without a comb because he doesn`t have enough hair, unlike Brand to whom a comb is just beyond his ability to learn how to use, like the difference between edgy and crassly stupid.

I agree that someone who committed a criminal offence in the supposed search for "laughs", should be pilloried, and woss who is my age should have had more sense and should have his bollocks kicked.

I think their fees ( our licences) should be renegotiated, as since advertising has taken a turn, they ( woss and clarkson, not dimboy who had very little residual)now won`t now be able to run away to private fees as large.

that feels better.

I think I blew only half my braincells out when I cleared my sinuses, oops
