Clarkson: Gordon Brown is a "one-eyed Scottish idiot"

[Washewearingahat]

how the fuck can the 2 top comments be slagging off these 2? Richard Hammond actually never said anything bad and your all calling Jeremy names...which is exactly what you're moaning about! how Jeremy called Gordon a one eyed Scottish idiot:L if your getting annoyed at this then your just light weights who need to grow up.You think gordon hasn't heard all this before? you feel tyou need to defend a grown up? get a life.

[angels77100]

The Scots really are idiots. Until the cowardly Scots free themselves from British imperialism & stop waving that ugly looking English union flag about, they will never have my respect. I don't hate or even dislike the English, but I think it's a pathetic, cowardly act for a true Scot to bow down & kiss the ass of an Englishman.

[Bellalodicci9]

"In England, we have this one-eyed Scottish idiot". Thank fuck we don't now. Most shit PM we have ever had by a country mile. Read "Gordon is a moron" by Vernon Coleman and pass it down to your descendants so they who the cunt was who was responsible for monumental economic fuck ups and mass uncontrolled immigration.

[wanniator]

@Bellalodicci9 You're an idiot, aren't you? If you'd read anything other than the right-wing twaddle that Clarkson vomits out every week, you may have a more balanced view. Brown is actually a very talented economist, and has been responsible for a variety of measures as Chancellor of the Exchequer that worked well for the country. Additionally, as I always think in these situations, thank god for uncontrolled immigration, because it makes it rarer to approach an idiot on your scale in England.

[OSXHD]

@wanniator @wanniator A talented economist? You have got to be kidding me. It was New Labour that put us in the recession because of their incompetence. Gordon Brown sold our gold reserves to the U.S for virtually nothing, just before the price of gold absolutely soared. He is not a very talented economist, he put us in the financial mess we now find ourselves in.

[Bellalodicci9]

@wanniator Gordon Brown a very talented economist . Hilarious. Yes a national Debt of over one trillion pounds this moron managed to rack up and you think uncontrolled immigration somehow benefits this country. I suggest it is you that is the idiot.

[MrTomSmoke]

The funny part s that Gordon Brown really is a one-eyed Scotsman and there is quite a lot of evidence to point that he is also an idiot.

[scoller]

he wasnt blinded as a child. especially by being kicked in the head as stated in the top comment :s he was blinded as a teen whilst playing rugby.

the facts that he is scottish or blind wasnt used as an insult. they were mearly stated, he was called an idiot, the rest are just a description, if you think its an insult to be called scottish, then your the one in the wrong.

stewert lee was very funny, very cleaver, and wrong

[01000001011100100111]

@scoller You're being incredibly naive if you think the one-eyed comment was only in there for descriptive purposes.

[scotchprofessor]

@scoller That's a poor reading of the event. He said, and I quote: "In England, we have this one-eyed SCOTTISH idiot". My all caps are to display where the stress falls; and it falls on 'Scottish' rather than 'idiot'. So what point do you think he was trying to make? Why mention 'England'? Why mention 'Scotland'?

If someone is called a 'black bastard', are you you really naive enough to understand that as merely a word of description, a simple adjective detailing the noun?

[JPJPJPJAMESJPJPJP]

@scoller very cleaver? i can tell your not very clever...

[scoller]

@JPJPJPJAMESJPJPJP.... so i made a spelling mistake lol, wow thats a clear indication as to how clever i am on a whole. well done, cock.

far too many grammer nazis on this website nowadays

[NovemberRoses]

@scoller very cleaver? always did think Stewart was sharp

[lliiaamm0099]

jeremy clarkson is a giant CUNT

[celluloidheroesradio]

aaahhha ha ha gypsies

[cheese0muncher]

Jeremy Clarkson, not some someone who works as a cunt, but someone who is a cunt.

[MrHehj]

It's just a joke like on Top Gear.

[SuperMrBentley]

Stupid bloody wanker.

[Yarooo1000]

Clarkson insults everybody. Cunt would have been enough -without using the national/race/disability shit.However you cant swear on the Beeb can you?

[beatboxmashup]

good old stewart lee

hahahahhah blind child hahahhahah

[Symbioticism]

"I genunely hope every one of you insensitive pricks who actually think he is ok to say that has a child tragically blinded when another child kicks them in the head and they have it used as a defining characteristic when some reactionary tool dislikes them as a person when they grow up" - for those of you who want to thumbs up cjc58 without making assumptions about someone doing a difficult job none of us have any experience of.

[strathpipe]

Next in Scotland I would be glad to rearrage this eejits eyes both of them piece of english filth........How is these creatures get away with being racist to the Scots? If he has said that about one the coloured folk he would have been sacked the bawbag

[TekniqDNB]

@strathpipe I completely empathise with your anger and agree with your point about racism, but you've accidentally (?) been a bit racist in your comment there. Clarkson's opinions are filth, but whether he's English or not doesn't matter.

[destructorcreator]

Stewart Lee sent me here, and they're absolute cowards, the pair of them.

[ggfletcher]

@destructorcreator Ha ha,me too and he was so right.

[danielearwicker]

@destructorcreator - Stewart Lee sent me here as well, and I notice that his description of Richard Hammond's reaction is completely fictional, and also that Stewart Lee made a sly reference to how all drunk tramps tend to be Scottish, which is frankly a 'Top Gear' joke itself! And then later on the 'Milder Comedian' DVD there's the bit about how the Glasgow audience are offended by libraries and books.

[chalkus]

@danielearwicker Is this comment satirical?

[danielearwicker]

@chalkus If it is, do I win anything?

[chalkus]

@danielearwicker only respect I'm afraid

[comanchio1976]

@danielearwicker Haha, best reply I've seen in ages. But actually, you do win an Ian Hislop satire achievement doll, pull the chord at the back and it makes a smug remark about a current political event in a vaguely posh voice.

[comanchio1976]

@danielearwicker I've only just realised that my comment was rather-nonsensical, and appears insulting.

it was supposed to be a compliment..in fairness though, I was rather stoned at the time

[CrazyMeCrazyYou]

@danielearwicker to be fair, he merely observed that the Glaswegian audience laughed when he said library, an undeniable fact.

[comanchio1976]

@danielearwicker He was being ironic, and he was playing to a Scottish audience.

[Pumasarah]

@destructorcreator Absolutely. Stewart Lee is a genius. Sent me here, too

[comanchio1976]

@destructorcreator Cowards, that are often trapped between 2 forms of cowardice!;)

[iliketha]

@destructorcreator stewart lee sent me here too, but the hamster didnt laugh at the abusive comment, so that was an unfair judgement. Clarkson is a moron though.

[cjc58]

I genunely hope every one of you insensitive pricks who actually think he is ok to say that has a child tragically blinded when another child kicks them in the head and they have it used as a defining characteristic when some reactionary tool dislikes them as a person when they grow up.

Gordon Brown might have been a poor leader who made alot of mistakes and feel free to mock him for who he is but you can fuck off if you think it's appropriate to mock his disability

[Bellalodicci9]

@cjc58 He deserves nothing but contempt and ridicule for the complete mess he has left in his wake. This weirdo has destroyed many lives because of his ham fisted incompetence and for generations to come for that matter. If he apologised and admitted he was not up to the job i would have sympathy for him. I really don't give two shits what people say about him.He is a fucking arrogant tosser who took the people for fools by allowing uncontrolled immigration and thought we wouldn't care about it

[cjc58]

@Bellalodicci9 I agree that the was a tossbag of a leader & there are alot of reasons to rip the piss out of him but picking oh a disability isnt right and it makes him look sympathetic. Even if immigration was uncontrolled which it isnt (too lax? agreed. No one deserves to live off our taxes, not British born and certainly not foreigners) it is hardly down to him alone, that is pure scaremongering fascist racist spin that we as a nation are meant to pride ourselves in having fought in Hitler

[BruceNJeffAreMyFlies]

@cjc58 Harden up bitch. He didn't even make fun of him, he just said hes a one eyed scotsman. He is isn't he? He just said it in an aggressive manner because he wants to insult him, if he said it in a sympathetic voice you wouldn't be whining like a bitch hoping a fuckin child gets kicked in the head.

Wish it upon the insulter, but don't you dare wish for a child to get kicked in the face and blinded you sick fuck. Karmas gonna fuck you in the face I think, lord knows I would if I could.

[cjc58]

@BruceNJeffAreMyFlies Harden up yourself bitch, it was just a joke, like they do on Top Gear, don't get all upset. You are a moronic hypocrite, it was something called satire. Freedom of speech goes both ways.

P.S. You look like a sad child by threatening me

[1234FranciscoVasquez]

@cjc5 How was that satire? Do you even know what satire means?

[cjc58]

@1234FranciscoVasquez because I was mocking foolishness with irony, I never claimed it was masterful satire and certainly wasn't an original statement in the first place

[1234FranciscoVasquez]

@BruceNJeffAreMyFlies How is celebrating somebody being blinded as a child any worse than wishing blindness on a child? It's the same thing. And as Stewart Lee clearly said at the end of the routine, he did not seriously wish blindness on Clarkson's children but was satirising the way Top Gear can get away with coming out with such ignorant comments with the excuse that 'it was a joke'.

[jrobertsoneff]

@1234FranciscoVasquez As long as you dont say golliwog

[comanchio1976]

@cjc58 Sadly, the point you just made will fly 20 miles over the head of some of the folks on here...namely, barely literate, moronic die-hard Clarkson fans.

[Jannto]

@cjc58 blah blah. Stewart lees point was that it's fine they say the things they say. Because it is fine he says the things he says.

[dazbert1]

Jeremy Clarkson is an idiot. A popular idiot, but an idiot nonetheless.

[ronald2394]

Clarkson......good for a Frankenstein movie but thats it. Only a brainless fuck like Clarkson has a go at a guy with one eye. I hope the next thing to go through this twats mind is a windshield.

[trimpo]

"In England we have...", erm no Jeremy,shouldn't that be 'in the UK we have'? I believe that Brown is the PM of the UK.

Also, of what relevance is the fact that Brown is Scottish? Why did ol' big head think that warranted mention? I think we know the answer.

How does "in Scotland we had this swivel-eyed English idiot called Maragaret Thatcher" sound to you?

1. She is swivel-eyed

2. She's English

3. She's an idiot.

What's the problem?

[WolfOfTheSeas101]

i am scottish x3 that is is... like... strange... D:<

[00KMurray]

i hope clarkson comes up to scotland some time soon for a wee holiday, and we'll see how many minutes he lasts. hes gonna get sorted out properly if he's no carefull

[Bellalodicci9]

@00KMurray Yeah and I'd like to meet Brown personally as would millions of others and smash the air gulping "One-eyed Scottish idiot's" head to kingdom come. The South and Midlands of England absolutely hate this tosser for the total ham shit he has made of everything.

[PKBitchGirl]

I thought Brown was called a 'one-eyed Scottish bastard'

[ChRIs23696]

haha the reason its funny is cuz we all know its absolutely true

[bobodd5]

hes also a nazi arsehhole

[elanxx]

Gordon Brown is a one eyed Scottish idiot, I don't see what the fuss is about.

[bobodd5]

@elanxx fuck you

[choicesman2000]

well done jeremy u deserve a medal mate

[basstrom188]

Jeremy Clarkson is not my favourite person but he hit it on the head when it comes to Gordon Brown

[kly45]

As Stewart Lee said - 'I hope clarkson's children go blind!'

[dudefather]

'I wish Richard Hammond the hamster, not actually a hamster got decapitated...'

[tutiboi]

:L lmao played clarkson legend(Y), tbh i hate gorgdon brown got the UK into lots of shit!! did you kno whe sold the white cliffs of dover to france to try and get us out of debt??? IDIOT!!!

[MaIcoImZieI]

I am Scottish myself and I must admit that Scotland is one big pile of shite. I'd rather be living in thet slums of Mumbai.

[dviovinovfion]

ROFL!

I totally agree with clarkson. The scottish PC (political correctness) Brigade can fuck off.

[scottishlad1987]

yeah ok, english moron.

[SoylentGreenStreet]

Clarkson, on the other hand, is a smug, bigoted idiot. A petrol-head indeed.  Has anyone got a light?

[m0pX]

Is that NewLabour newspeak for "I don't like people that can think for themselves and possess a sense of humour"?

[SoylentGreenStreet]

No, it's old labour speak for "Clarkson is a smug, bigoted idiot." But if you think Clarkson is some great wit then, of course, you'll want to dismiss any criticism of the curly-haired wonder as "political correctness gone mad". Personally, I just think Clarkson (on politics as opposed to cars) is a bit of a knob.

[babyshambler]

Jeremy Clarkson has three daughters..I hope they all go blind. Not in one eye, in all their eyes! It's ok..it's a joke. A Jeremy Clarkson style joke! Ahhhh.

[brucegray666]

Yeah, and I wish Hammond was decapitated in that crash.

[kersal2]

Haha, went to see Stewart Lee tonight and his rant about Hammond was fantastic

[BUMBUMFLAG]

stewart lee

[anxresi]

Never a truer word said in jest..

[jonamuk7]

One eyed acottish idiot lol Brilliant!

[brucegray666]

Trouble spelling Scottish? What a fucking idiot.

[daryl4classic]

I notice all these people clicking thumbs down on the comments of support for clarkson, which tells me that these people are obviously labour supporters. They need something to distract them from what their hero, the one eyed scottish idiot, has done to us.

[ChRIs23696]

he bloody well is: lets review he's scottish, one eyed and is as thick as 5 short planks of wood

[peepshowc4]

hope all his children go blind

[Hoopybunnie]

You can attack the man for his policies but having one eye? Losing an eye, for a child especially, will have been a devastating experience. It's just not funny. You wouldn't make fun of a man in the street for having a glass eye, why does his being a politician make it okay?

[daryl4classic]

He deserves it. Your the kind of person who would feel sorry if your saw a picture of Hitler when he was 7 with a broken leg.

[Hoopybunnie]

Yeah. Cause Gordon Brown is on exactly on the same level as Hitler.

By saying it's okay to mock one person's disability you're saying it's okay to mock disability. And it's not.

I'm not saying you shouldn't mock Gordon Brown, I'm saying you should try mocking him for things that are actually his fault.

[daryl4classic]

your right, sorry. The economic issues are not his fault. After all, the troubles have been brewing since the late 90's-early 00's, so maybe we should look at the chancellor. Oh hang on.

[daryl4classic]

and he wasn't a child, he was in his mid-late teens, not exactly in the teletubby phase.

[Hoopybunnie]

I don't recall saying that the economic issues weren't his fault. I'm saying that being blind in one eye was not his fault.

And confusing semantics doesn't change the fact that no matter what age you are it's still something that's going to change your life forever.

[Hoopybunnie]

I'm not even angry at Clarkson, in all honesty. It's a stupid off the cuff thing to say but that's all. I'm angry at all the people here who've had time to think about what he said and are condoning it.

[robiiC9109]

welldone jeremy stand up for what you believe in id call him a one eyed scottish idiot to his face and labour is gone shit heres a tip dont vote because if you do you give them more couragement to fuck it up even more

[gorgeousaldo2007]

What is the problem here? Brown is one eyed. He is Scottish. And he's an idiot. There aren't any lies being told (and I say that as a Scot). People need to stop being so thin skinned. As for independence - aint going to happen. Not enough people support it in Scotland and I have serious doubts if the Westminster parliament would support it even if Scotland voted yes (under the Scotland act the Westminster parliament still has to approve independence even if there is a yes vote)

[04mittald]

gordon brown does have a lot of critics

[cbombslammer]

Jeremy Clarkson, the fat pube-haired English idiot!

[millsy1804]

lol i think the scottish people are a bit weeeee pissed off

[scottishlad1987]

it's ok for him to bring the fact that he's scottish into an insult, but he would be a bigot if he was to call someone a one eyed english idiot. fucking bullshit.

[VengeanceIsMineBitch]

scottish people are idiots though, they have an inferiority complex (quite understandably - they are inferior)which is why they're for the most part so aggressive.

[scottishlad1987]

can you name me one well known scot with an inferiority complex? you guys all just copy each other, stereotyping all the time. it just goes to show how much you really know about scottish people, nothing at all.

[daryl4classic]

you're right, I dont hate people for just being scottish. A scot invented Tv. I don't hate brown for being scottish, I hate him for many other reasons

[dviovinovfion]

"can you name me one scot with an inferiority complex?"

gordon brown for example?

[scottishlad1987]

how does gordon brown have an inferiority complex? i don't like the guy either but i wouldn't say he has one.

[bobodd5]

@dviovinovfion you are a wank

[scubbiesrules]

I'm Scottish and I can quite happily say that I despise Brown. But to bring his nationality into political matters was completely unacceptable and unecessary. And the english wonder why we Scots want independence...

[ppshchik]

I think there was a poll that 60%+ English wanted Scotland to secede as well.

[Independence4Britain]

But isn't it part of freedom of speech that one can say such things? anyway, are you sure that him being Scottish had anything to do with it. I mean, at the day, he is Scottish. What is he supposed to call him?

[scubbiesrules]

What I'm saying is that his nationality has nothing to do with political matters. Clarkson had no reason to say that. As for your freedom of speech comment, I should have the freedom of speech to say that I dislike black people (I don't, it's just an example) but the law contradicts it.

[Independence4Britain]

Well, I agree that we should have the right to say "I don't like black people" (even though I don't hate black people nor like those who do hate them). But, in this new age of political correctness, our freedom must be sacrificed in the name of government intentions.

[Zidean007]

well for a start this is yet another toff who supports the tories, undermining someone just because their scottish. Im ashamed to be english at times. Gordon Brown is an extremely smart person who was accepted int THE university of edinburgh at 16 years old. If you dont like his politics fair enough but come on, britain shouldnt be about putting ppl down because the country they were born in, nor their disabilites. If you are going to hate him, then do so because of his policies. Dont be Racist.

[gorgeousaldo2007]

Gordon Brown is far from smart. I could go into many reasons why I think that but suffice to say he has well and truly fucked our economy. He fed an unsustainable boom which any sensible person could see would lead to a massive crash eventually. He is also unelected - his own party didn't even get the chance to vote for him. As such he has no legitimacy whatsoever and does not deserve respect.

[zBloodD3monz]

And he keeps denying that he fucked up the economy. Then he puts videos on YouTube with a big grin on his face.

[BeckiieeMert]

Lol Jermany Clarkson Is A Legend

[dashingwhitesergeant]

This guy is a brainless English prat

[ukdixie]

The bloke's human and is expressing a natural seniment. Any one of us ENGLISHMEN could have have been up there and said that.

[pingugore445]

i love it how sky news are so keen to cover this story

[SportingFishUK]

Clarkson you fool, it's One eyed -Scotch- idiot, don't you know anythihng?

[danpou3]

gordon brown has one eye, is scottish and in clarksons opinion is an idiot - what is the problem?

[Oh4Chrissake]

@danpou3 He was using 'Scottish' and 'one-eyed' pejoratively. That's the problem.

[tickle2012]

Does Brown really have only one eye? I didn't notice that when he speaks......

[hopeandjoywithlove]

This Orchestrated World Economic Collapse has been well planned and well thought out and IS part of the NWO agenda towards One World Government, One World Banking System and World Domination and has been for a very very long time .

[hopeandjoywithlove]

A Classic New World Order/ Illuminati Tactic ... Create a PROBLEM to manipulate public opinion and REACTION ... Then offer them the SOLUTION !

[herefordmsv]

Couldnt agree more. Brown has fucked everything up. Clarkson is spot on.

[whosstelingmename]

ii he is a freak he has fucked up our country

[YOBLUH]

John leonard Walson.

He IS an idiot,

Have you realised the whole world is going through a recession?

Are you in to politics or are you just passing your view on this one situation.

I've said, the blind comment was wrong but he is outrageous. Thats Just Jeremy.

[YOBLUH]

Lol,

chookter shut up,

do you know what racism is?

Its criticism against race.

I understand if blind charities are angry,

but racism, shh.

'Of course Clarkson is outrageous thats why we love him' -Terry Christian (:

[chalkus]

@YOBLUH YOBLUH

You do not know what racism is...... sshhhh.

[Velox0maximus]

hahahaha

[cbamode]

exactly no1 is angry, but thats the power of media they put a bad spin on everything trying to create a drama, clarkson is king 8)

[hogberto]

this hasn't caused 'anger'. i'm a scot in scotland. i'm not angry. i've not spoken to or heard of anyone here who's angry. we don't get angry about this stuff. the media are so f*cking hysterical.
