Comments on Tory Bear - right-wing political gossip: Times Silence Clarkson

After graduating from the Prince Phillip Academy for Diplomacy the young Clarkson intended a career in the environmental movement. His green credentials were clear from the start; he was envious of anyone with money.

A keen multiculturalist Clarkson started the Made-a-Veil society and was a frequent visitor to the West London Mosque where he stole shoes.

By now married he fell under the spell of a young moustachioed politician. But like Romeo and Julian this affair was destined for tragedy by the political chasm that separated them.

But the resilient Clarkson was down but not out. He applied for a job at the newly established BBC drugs advisory programme Top Gear. To his surprise he was asked to review a car but due to his green credentials he had never learnt to drive. Although still without a driver’s license his involvement with the programme has continued to this day using a driving simulator.

Recently his interest in politics was again stirred and the upcoming election sees him as special advisor to SARKIP. When successfully independent this blissfully car-free Channel Island will be the natural haven for a man of so many talents. Let us hope that he can live out his days growing his own vegetables, maintaining his own wind generator and writing his autobiography “These Boots are Made for Walking”.

Great article. I live in Germany myself, and Clarkson's right. But wait. There is a country he forgot. A mere 40 minutes' plane ride from Britain where they speak great English. The beer's good, they're polite and considerate and non-bureaucratic. They have no punitive inheritance tax for foreigners, no capital gains tax (so important for non-Labourites), they're bright and happy people and have more lovely cities and countryside than you could shake a stick at. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you ... Nederland. Sorry, I gotta go.

"If you don't want to be offended, don't read offensive peoples [sic] work."

You, like Clarkson, are an illiterate moron.

It was pulled for forty eight hours. thank you for notifying me that it was back up.

took me under a minute to find out that the article is there on the website.

next time try doing the most basic research before shrieking about censorship. pathetic: this is why bloggers don't get taken seriously.

obviously you're not going to publish this comment because you're a hack.

So if readers don't want to read offensive things they shouldn't. But if newspapers don't want to print offensive things they should? You're so right, if a newspaper would like to sully their image with that, they should! Then readers can choose not to read it, and then..oh wait. I forgot newspapers are a dying breed anyway.

Go join the BNP for pete's sake, I see only minute differences between Clarkson's drivel and their hate speech.

Also, perhaps Clarkson should consider sending his daughter to college in America, she could get health coverage as a student and lord knows Clarkson can afford it.

Only one problem with this story.

We didn't pull Clarkson's article from Times Online.

Apart from that...

Is this the same Sunday Times that pulled Philip Pulman's marvellous "Are such things done on Albion's shore" article?

Yup, thought so.

Bought and paid for, I guess.

The article appears to be back. Can't see if anything was modified.

He could go to Ireland, been a bit too peaceful there for a while.

And there was me, listening to a football match, while mentioning to Tom Harris that his party is ignoring the vast majority of the public.

Then I see that they aren't just ignoring, but censoring too.

Don't things move fast when there is such an incredibly inept government in charge?

2009-11-09T22:59:52.765Z

TB, it's still up there. Try accessing it in Internet Explorer, as The Times apparently don't guarantee that any of their articles will work in any other browser. I use Opera Browser, and have that very same 'error' problem with half the pages I try to read. Rather annoying, and I've emailed them about it, but they don't seem to care.

Classic Clarkson! The man has a sense of humor, and a real appetite for LIFE! Little wonder the prim, timid, and politically correct are so upset by him!

Monday nights here is Top Gear night, and we try not to miss it.

It's a shame he does not like America, or seems not to. Things here are in a sorrier state than they have been for years, but the citizenry is beginning to 'push back' in a major way. And, furthermore, this is a big place, where one can still find quiet places to live freely.

Shame on The Times!

How about everyone just not buy the rag for a few weeks, and let it melt down financially? That does seem to get the message across!

Thanks for sharing this with us all, TB. You're the best!

What a country we live in, when such ordinary (if funny) comments are not allowed.

Actually you can go to Germany I did with my family in 1978 (Sunny Jim time) and we have never regretted it.

2009-11-09T19:08:03.093Z

I knew this would be trouble when I read it - not altogether surprised it attracted criticism, though I'm shocked they've actually pulled it.

I think it's perhaps the phrase "mosque-drenched" that hit a few hot buttons...

I thought it was a fairly harmless post when I read it this morning. Who can be so offended to get this pulled?
