Aye perhaps, unforunately his audience is as you've said a rather older crowd, his reference here has passed me bye as I imagine it will have many of them, who will have taken it at face value and thought "well said Jezza". In fairness my daughter had a seating plan based around GoT for her wedding, and came into the reception room to the theme tune. I had to ask her where she got the ideas from, massive whoosh moment from me, I've never watched a minute of GoT

I don't care if it was a reference to/from Game of Thrones - never seen it myself - but it was a vile and offensive thing to say about anyone. (And no, I wouldn't give time of day to anything to do with her. I have no interest in what is she is or does). But I'd not say that, even in jest- nor should anyone else.

The man is a clown. When he assaulted the BBC member of staff his career should have ended then.

When he said. 'Everyone my age agrees with me'
I was reminded of a few golf club members I have met in my office over the years.
Translates into 'me and another two of my fourball'
Nicola called it correctly, we should pity him.

Not much fuss made about how he hates Sturgeon. ?

? This thread is hilarious! A bunch of people foaming at the mouth about someone foaming at the mouth,. Haaaa. Oh dear! Haaaaa.
If people in the public eye stick their heads over the parapet there's a good chance it's going to get blown off, however, all three in this comedy of fools are playing the public like a violin.
Have a beer, enjoy some time with your families and don't have nightmares. ?

I would much prefer Clarkson to keep all his clothes on while I throw things at him.

Indeed, saying he hates her more than Rose West the serial killer is very extreme?!

Its Clarkson we are talking about here, it's how he earns money. I'm amazed that people take him seriously.

…and the Chairman of IPSO was due to be having dinner with who yesterday evening? hmm…just as on Sunday the Kuenssberg failed to ask the editor of the Sun anything at all about the Clarkson commentary piece in her newspaper, whilst at the same time she was claiming that the Sun was fair to H&M.

I know what you mean, but don’t you think he has seriously gone over the line.
To talk about someone he doesn’t know, and, like us, doesn’t know anywhere near all the facts, in those sort of terms is outrageous, what I believe to be nasty outrageous.
If he had been talking about your daughter like that , how would your view be then? In private would be bad enough…but to put it in a national newspaper.
And his notoriety as an attention seeker etc is no excuse.
To be clear, I have no interest in the H and M saga, what they all get up to is not worthy of concern, but no one should be described like that without their being some sort of proven heinous criminal.

If my Daughter was that high profile and poking a stick into a hornets nest then I would expect her to get stung and would warn her as such.
I don't defend Clarkson but I'm not surprised at what he's done. H & M have decided to join the circus so they need to be prepared for the clowns.

Not many would have seen that column as who buys physical papers nowadays? not many. A few may cling on to the past.
What gets me is those outraged I doubt are the type of people to buy the Sun. Since they aren’t the target audience it baffles me why it gets to them and why they keep moaning about it on social media making it more known to the public.

Nobody can, or should have to be prepared for vitriol like that!

If it wasn't for social media (I assume that this Forum comes under that heading), I would have been in blissful ignorance of this event.

Maybe but it's about publicity, nothing new, they're all at it to some degree. They claim defamation of character if they're offended.

That's true for me on absolutely any notable event nowadays.
