Yup, that'll be me then.

Anything to break the drudging, incessant whine of political correctness and cause a chuckle...
That'll be me also

Genius.

The PC brigade saying its' offensive etc etc - what about freedom of speech?
That is very quickly disappearing for broadcasters. They're under increasing pressure not to swear, rebel or risk offending anyone.

The act of being offended by proxy mentioned by Ed is very much on the increase. And sadly the BBC and others are giving these kunnts the time of day.

Sadly and symptomatic of our age is that his ignorant and loud utterings will find favour with so many of like mind.
So just sit back and witness the many who will rush to defence.

I rest my case.
You're a happy chappy aren't you?

I wonder if Clarkson takes himself as seriously as so many others seem to?

I very much doubt it.

Well done Jezza You're only saying what the majority think.

I can't see why it should offend the visually impaired or Scots as it was directed at one individual and not a generalised dig at a group.

Next time it'll be a car company having a go at him because he's called their car a POS!

I wish someone would invent a spoof to send up all those asscrawlers at the beeb; a demonstration by a group of Japanese complaining that the Beeb's diversity policy was offending them, because they are so genetically homogenous and it's oppressing their right to be so...

GB is far from an idiot but he is complicit in allowing the banks to run themselves effectively insolvent that makes him a criminal. So the correct expression would have been

One eyed Scottish Crook.

I remember Clarkson on early top gear and he was poor on the track.

Seems a lot better nowadays, practice and I bet lots of tuition. Or good
camera work unlike SHIT 5th GEAR.

Yeah, roll up one & all to jump on the bandwagon.

I didn't hear it but i'm deeply offended.

I didn't see it but i'm deeply offended.

I wasn't there but i'm deeply offended.

I'm Welsh but i'm still deeply offended.

I'm Japanese & even i'm deeply offended.

I haven't got a clue who said what about who but i'm deeply offended.

What a load of c0ck. FFS get a grip you self righteous wankers. Being offended by proxy seems to be the in thing at the moment.

He insulted Brown, not the blind or the one eyed. Just Brown, & good on him. The sooner that piss stained blind twat is out of the equation the better. Interesting how all the stories flying around about his impending breakdown & lack of control within the cabinet as a result, are being blanket ignored while this utter non story is way up there on the outrage-o-meter.

Ed


Can't believe anyone woud ever make me want Tony back!

One of the best things about being British is our irreverence and a lack of respect for authority, so how did we get to this PC strangled society that we have now?

How does a publicly aired accurate description become an attack on a nation and disabled people in one fell swoop?!?!?!?!?! Pile of b**llocks

The only untruth may have been idiot! I've heard GB called a lot worse lately. PC bastards. I want to be able to say Gollywog etc whenever/wherever I want, I see the Daily Mail is giving away the !Dam Busters" film, just wonder if they've changed the squadrons dog's name? It was *igger by the way, since he was a black lab.
