Not content with ignoring more than 30,000 members of the public who registered formal complaints against Jeremy Clarkson, after Jeremy Clarkson encouraged TV viewers to 'do a Breivik' by murdering striking public-sector workers, not content with letting Clarkson off for making grotesque comments about suicide victims, and not content with rewarding Clarkson's bigotry by commissioning and broadcasting the racist toilet-humour of the Top Gear India Special, now the BBC respond to more proof of Jeremy Clarkson's racism, by giving him what's laughably referred to as a "final warning". In other words the BBC have responded to the person who's done more to incite and to legitimise xenophobia, racism and potentially-murderous Fascist views than any other person in the UK, by letting him off, scot-free, yet AGAIN.

Writing in the Sun newspaper, Jeremy Clarkson denied his most recent use of racist language, but evidence published by The Daily Mirror has proved he was lying. When responses to Jeremy Clarkson's incitements appeared previously on Indymedia, Clarkson sycophants trolled revealing responses in the comments sections, blind to the irony of them getting all indignant about people daring to subject their hero to reciprocal humour - apologists for racism routinely use the defence that racists are "only" joking, but when, in Clarkson's case, this racist shit gets as good as he's given, the sycophants come crying...

To put this in further context, the current Chairman of the BBC is former Tory cabinet minister Chris Patten, who oversaw the failed imposition of Margaret Thatcher's hated (and profoundly anti-democtratic) Poll Tax, and Jeremy Clarkson is a personal friend of Tory Prime Minister David Cameron.

The writer and main presenter of the biggest single money earning production the BBC has, not much chance of him being sacked is there ?

Nic, you're right, given Jeremy Clarkson's commercial earning-power, in the short-term at least, it's a statement of the obvious that there isn't much chance of getting this wanker sacked - all you're stating is WHY the BBC have done that which we know about already (in tolerating and, in the case of the Top Gear India Special, encouraging and rewarding this racist shit). Additional factors to take into consideration are -

1. Given how, shortly after the murders committed by Anders Breivik, Jeremy Clarkson openly incited the murder of striking public sector workers, the people he'd like to see killed have the option of of either a/ doing nothing, or b/ doing something. You choose carefully!

2. It took DECADES for BBC acts like the Black & White Minstrel Show and Sun TV columnist Garry Bushell to get their just desserts.... we can be patient

3. The (media and police) establishment also needed to protect BBC superstar Jimmy Savile, but the truth came out in the end

Frances Clarkson to divorce after 21 years....

06.05.2014 18:59

If this neo-Fascist shit had said blacks should be gassed or gays should be hung, he'd be in jail, but because it was strikers he said should be shot, apparently that's "humour". Anyway.....

Was the n-word scandal the final straw? Jeremy Clarkson's wife 'to divorce him after 21 years of marriage'. Clarkson - who apparently earned £14million from Top Gear last year - initially denied using the n-word but twelve hours after the story broke, he was begging forgiveness from fans -

Alex Hall, the first wife of the Top Gear presenter, says his current spouse, Frances Clarkson, is the secret to his success and has "done her penance". After 21 years in a marriage that weathered rumoured infidelities and plenty of career controversies, Jeremy Clarkson is heading for a second divorce. In a week in which Clarkson was severely reprimanded by the BBC over alleged racist language, his wife Frances’s decision to seek a divorce will be another dent in the ego, and the bank balance, of the famously bullish Top Gear presenter.

Jeremy Clarkson racially abuses Asians again

06.05.2014 19:29

The terms "slope", "slopehead", "slopy", "slopey" and "sloper" are derogatory (mostly US and Australian) slang used to insult people of Asian (especially Vietnamese and Chinese) descent.

Jeremy Clarkson's controversial "slope" reference in an episode of BBC2's Top Gear is to be investigated by the media regulator in a move that is likely to heap further pressure on the beleaguered presenter. Top Gear producer Andy Wilman has already expressed regret for any offence caused by the remark, made after Clarkson and co-hosts Richard Hammond and James May built a bridge over the River Kwai in the motoring show's Burma special broadcast in March. As an Asian man was seen walking along the bridge, Clarkson said: "That is a proud moment, but there's a slope on it." ... Top Gear "specialises in making a profit from deliberate but deniable racism".

In reality Andy Wilman couldn't give a fuck... it's not like this prick did anything to stop Jeremy Clarkson last time
