lol, clarkson as PM would be a bad bad idea.

Say good bye to your car if its over 5 years old (he hates cars over 5 years old), prepare to pay even more for petrol( he thinks £1 a litre is very reasonable and TBH i do see his point there, compare paying £1 a litre for fuel and the process behind getting that fuel to you with say a litre of JD or Baileys at over £18 for a litre and fuel is very cheap) and if you dont drive an italian supercar prepare to be restricted to lanes 1 and 2 on the motorway so that overpaid arrogant TV presenters have exclusive use of lane 3.

I like the show Top Gear but having any of those 3 (with maybe the exception of James May) as politicians would be a very very bad idea

i agree entirely with clarksons stance on the clearing of accidents on the motorway etc, take the people out, stick them in an ambulance take a picture and bulldoze the debris to the side of the road so people can get on with it

The charm about Clarkson is his ability to make his ideas sound more than half-feasible.

Would you really want Clarkson in charge of the country when he can't even manage his bank account?

Recently Clarkson published his bank account details to prove that if criminals got hold of the 2 data discs containing 25 million peoples bank account details for benefit payments, that those criminals could not do anything about it.
Well it has emerged that after that little stunt, someone has set up a direct debit from Clarkson's account to the tune of £500 per month to the charity 'Diabetes UK' proving Clarkson utterly and totally wrong!
