Top Gear starts second Falklands War?

Top gear could have made sensational headlines as above - maybe? Well it seems the Argies aren't happy with Jeremy Clarkson and co who were filming a Top Gear "stunt" there.

Were they aware of possible significance of the number plated Porsche? "oh dear, no" they said - "you bet they were " I SAY.

Heavens sake this is Top Gear they like to court controversy - why does JC work for the BBC? He's nearly been sacked a couple of times but they let him off.

Weather the BBC like TG because they can sell it is one thing, as a Taxpayer funded organisation I say "NO WAY". How on earth is the BBC allowed to do these things? If it was a private company fair enough - they take the consequences, but when  you and I are paying for it. In these days of austerity, the Government wants to cut Benefits to make ends meet, how about letting every body be £145 a year better off. Abolish the Licence fee, and Privatise the BBC.

MP John Whittingdale who chairs the Culture and Media committee said that "it was getting harder to sustain the license fee".

Too right when the bloated BBC languishes fat salaries on endless "executives", insane "stars", ridiculous "presenters" (Claudia Winkelman £250,000) and wastes money provoking other countries, do we really expect this on our hard earned money. If even a minute fraction of any of this was done by say your local council (taxpayer funded) or your MP (taxpayer funded) there would out cry "sack them" but this is hte BBC (Taxpayer Funded).

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?

News Corporation is still feeling the effects of the "Phone Hacking" scandal - what are the sanctions on the BBC - I think its too much part of the establishment - hence why Jimmy Saville got away with it for so long. Maybe there is change in the air?

They sold off the Post Office, if Sky can be profitable then why not the BBC,? It gets over £3 billion pounds a year to make "entertainment"!! how can this be in 2014?

Clarkson has a foul mouth?

So Jezza has put his foot in it again,? Using a "naughty" word.

Now I'm not a fan of Jeremy Clarkson, he does not amuse me and irritates like mosquito bite but on this occasion I am with him.

What is it with these "Language Police"? Certain words are now banned, they used to be OK but now you can't say them because you might "offend" someone.

For heaven's sake they are only a collection of letters pronounced In a certain way. Where is the offence? Surely it is the context that they are used. Will the Thought-Police ban all words that have other meanings that offend, its like 1984, Newspeak? Rewriting history will be next - the Holocaust never happened? Did William the Conqueror invade us or was he invited?

What about "Bl*ck Labradors" - will they all have to be Euthanized or given another name? "Un-white Labradors". Gosh I'm getting paranoid now - what dare I write - someone may get offended?

Didn't Guy Gibson, Dambuster and War Hero call his dog this "N" name? Now I hear they can't use it in the latest film of the Dam Busters!

Re-writing history has started.


Bah.

Where is Jeremy Clarkson?

Where is JC when you want him?

Now I've not much time for JC - he enjoys upsetting people too much and being a Yorkshire man (like me) he gives us a poor reputation. WE aren't all loud mouthed bigots - any way to the point.

Today I am ANGRY - why you ask?

Surface Dressing! It is the season of chipped paint and cracked windscreens.

What annoys me is the stupid other drivers with no brains. The signs say 20 mph!! Why do you think ? because the loose chippings fly everywhere and crack windscreens and chip paint. So the numpties ignore them and because you are good and go slow they fly by spraying you in stones.

So, no explanation except they are brainless and/or driving a company car and don't care.

They should be (to quote Jeremy) SHOT!

Some blame lies on the Highways - we all hate pot holes and they are trying - since the Surface Dressing does help to maintain roads, but they should not do it on "A" roads. They don't do it on Motorways do they and I've seen some horrendous potholes on Motorways.

Also they don't take the signs away weeks after its done, so the can't blame the dim-wits for speeding. If the blatantly it was done weeks ago what's the point. Anyway where are the police to catch these anti-social careless drivers. I don't think we have Highway Patrols any more anyway.

Rant over - now I feel better.
