Jeremy Clarkson’s take on Covid scientists was as bad as you’d expect – 11 scathing responses
In shocking news, it seems that Jeremy Clarkson – the man who said that TV was “obsessed with hiring black Muslim lesbians”, punched a staff member for not bringing him hot food, and said that a quintessentially German car would make Hitler salutes – has expressed an ill-formed and selfish opinion on Covid.

‘I think the politicians should sometimes tell those communists at Sage to get back in their box. Let’s just all go through life with our fingers crossed and a smile on our face.’
Ah, yes – the ‘Communists at sage’. How well we all remember the time Sir Patrick Vallance tried to bring down the monarchy and redistribute the Royal residences to the masses.
Tweeters were neither surprised nor impressed by his latest soundbite.

The attempt by UK attention-seekers to mimic US Covid culture wars is rather sad, like a child putting on a toy fireman's helmet and saying 'I'm a fireman.' https://t.co/FS9XX6uWJ5

I see Jeremy Clarkson is again being a knobhead of olympian proportions, criticising 'communists at sage' who are exercising caution at reopening society.
Furthermore, he says ‘if you die, you die’.He could have been anything he wanted to be, but choses to be a douchebag 🙄

When I arrived at A&El, the doctors did a quick check on me, reckoned I was on the point of dying. They put me on a chair in the corner and said, 'If you're going to die, you're going to die'.
