In a Sun article, published on Friday, Jeremy Clarkson wrote that he loathed Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, “on a cellular level”. He said he was “dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant, ‘Shame!’ and throw lumps of excrement at her”. He added that “Everyone who’s my age thinks the same way.”
It’s just Jeremy Clarkson being Jeremy Clarkson, of course, emboldened to crank up the misogyny because no one is taking enough notice of him these day. But Victoria Newton, editor of the red-top rag, must have read his column and decided, for whatever reason, to publish, when she should instead have spiked it. And her paymaster, Rupert Murdoch, is equally culpable, for giving the Cotswold-based ‘rent-a-gob’ the opportunity to vent his spleen in the first place.
Licenced today: the Christmas fair in the Piece Hall, Halifax...
