Top Gear TV presenter, Jeremy Clarkson recently said about striking public sector workers in the UK that they should be:
‘taken outside and executed in front of their families.’
This led to uproar from the public sector union, Unison.
Is this an over-reaction to a bad taste joke or is it genuinely offensive and out of order?
Should his employer, the BBC take disciplinary action?
Watch the video and judge for yourself.
Personally, I have seen Jeremy Clarkson’s career develop over the past twenty years and in my opinion, he has always been a smug conceited snob who is thoroughly obnoxious. It’s no surprise that as his success and fame have increased, he’s become more convinced of his belief that his reactionary views are representative of the British public.
If they are, God help us all
