We will all have our favourite television presenters and those that we loath, people whose shear presence has us reaching for the off button. Well Jeremy Clarkson is one of the ones I loathe. I know that I am in a minority as recently in one of the tabloid papers they were saying that he should be Prime Minster.
It is not that he presents a motoring programme, although that is partly why I find him distasteful. But it’s the fact that via his programme and in his various newspaper columns, he tacitly urges people to break the law. Speeding is a crime and is the number one factor behind most of the deaths and injuries on the roads.
Add to that his blokes attitude and opinions and for me he comes across as an arrogant unreconstructed male chauvinist, and that explains why I dislike him. Mind you he thinks worst of me.
Well, following the loss of discs containing the bank details, along with lots of other details of use to fraudsters and paedophiles) of half the population of the UK, he dismissed the fears and furore as hype, and printed his full bank account details in one of the papers he writes for. The result is he has lost money from his account. Not stolen but to a charity as a direct debit taken out in his name.
Sometimes you really should engage your brain before releasing the clutch to your mouth.
