Jeremy Clarkson offends the oversensitive, the boring and the greedy

Take off your bubble wrap, you'll realise the world isn't a soft and plushy place soon enough.

I hardly judged you, I said that towards the reaction of you and the over 5000 people who think words with a definite hint of sarcasm hurt, they moan because they're to soft to do.

I can hold a sign, big whoop, do something productive, use youinitiative... Frankie Boyle has said much worse things, so has multiple other TV personalities, so has tens of thousands of humans. Instead of crying over words of a simple being why don't they take a look at themselves and think wtf am I doing.

you judged me enough to think i had no world experience. and lmao, frankie boyle is funny and his controversial words have some humour behind them. jeremy clarkson is a boring egotistical idiot who seems to think he's funny, when he's not. i agree in that it shouldn't have been THAT BIG A DEAL. but he's not funny, his joke doesn't amuse me and obviously others.

it seems this forum has its little army of clarkson fanboys.

I'm hardly a clarkson fanboy, i'm more of a hate boy of the nation we live in, I find it pathetically foolish at times.

I didn't say you had no world experience, I hinted that if you react bad to such a comment you see the world as it isn't.

He's like a modern hitler... or something, since we like, totally think he's a nazi yeah?

Its just a joke guys sheese.

You can hate me all you want for saying this but THERE ARE NO CUTS!!!!, when will people actually look at the figures and understand that public spending is not decreasing and therefore wiping out the defecit (so we run a surplus) until 2017 at the EARLIEST!. 2017 is when we are no longer contributing to the debt, but the debt will still be there. Our total debt is already enroaching onto the 80% mark. There is no money left in the kitty for ANYTHING as anything we are spending is not ours as we do not have any money left!. I've tired to be clear, I really have but no doubt this will still go over the heads of the left wing looneys who want gold-plated pensions of whom those in the private sector could only dream about. Even if the Unions accept the current deal on the table, there will still be a £10,000,000,000 (ten billion) black hole.

Mr Clarkson was only having a joke, some people need laughing sessions I think.

Well that's wrong... there are cuts but then more money is put in other places. And in all fairness, a lot of what is implemented by the government will start happening over the next couple of years. That said the government is still ******ed to the extent that they waste so much money in stupid things which aren't vital but still cut from things which are vital, such as education.

Anyway I agree with Clarksons actual opinion (which is not to shoot strikers as that is a joke) and that they need to get a grip.

Government spending overall (ahead of inflation as well) is increasing, not decreasing/staying stable.

What the news, the papers and so on feed us about the cuts is simply untrue. This government right now is spending more than any government ever has before in the history of our nation. As I keep saying, there really is no difference between them [the political parties].

I think we should have a debt default followed by enormous cuts in government spending, but neither are happening.

Its a joke but people are taking it like he sent a death threat out to a individual.

His problem is he talks what he thinks. Just needs to keep a few things in his head for once

Besides I can agree with you partly because you are right on the 'the rest of us dont live a life of luxary' - thats exactly what the Unions and the public sector need to understand before they go about asking for even more generous pay packages/pensions.

Totally agree. All taken wildly out of proportion!

The strikers are ******* greedy and should be happy they're getting a ******* 1% pay rise. I work in the private sector and I'm not and my parents haven't had pay rises in three or four years. I'm not getting one of these wonderful pensions the Unions are refusing either.
