Clearly biffing someone is not a debating stance that most people would accept as relevant or proportionate. Nor would it realistically be considered a fitting form of punishment for a transgression. Word is that Jezza struck someone, a producer, for not having organised a meal for the presenters, to be taken post filming.
Sounds a tad trivial to us and maybe a little 'superstar', but probably not far North of what anyone would do after a long day and when it is the norm and expected. I believe outlets for the provision of food are numerous and some open quite late. But if catering is part of the package, well, you know.
Still not right to hit someone though (for reasons of clarity, can I make clear that by 'someone' I am inferring 'anyone excepting Piers Morgan'). However, the story goes currently, that Clarkson says he didn't hit anyone.
But the BBC is right to act, yes? Actually, the question is irrelevant, the money, popularity and the money that Top Gear brings in has stopped the eager souls at the top of the BBC (nearly said 'work for'! Work? Not likely) from ditching the show years ago.
Left liberals (as they call themselves) have been screaming to delete Jeremy Clarkson for as long as he has been allowed airtime. He not only promotes cars, which are evil in their eyes, but he does so with a distinct lack of seriousness. In fact, you could go as far as suggesting a degree of tomfoolery. Worse, as part of the jocularity, he says and encourages others to say things that are not Left wing.
This ability to have an opinion runs contrary to all they have been working towards, and largely succeeded over decades. They do not want to see a counter-culture survive and thrive. Clarkson tells jokes without the target being Margaret Thatcher, he lampoons beloved public services on the supposedly important grounds that they lack use. And he suggests that things they say and do are idiotic, particularly heath and safety Nazis and speed limits for no purpose.
Clarkson has even objected, on occasion to the Left telling lies, as if that could ever matter, in the cause of the greater good.
So basically, Clarkson had to go and it seems that now he has given the pathetic wretches who run too much of everything in this country, enough to force their co-religionists to be rid of him. Good. Let's get the team on Sky where the programme could have some real life and not sully the BBC or hinder in their race to the bottom, largely on their own.
Perhaps they could call it 'Gold-Top Gear, the Cream of Motoring Shows'

QT Again!
What is it about QT that just makes me angry? I try to be generous but it seems increasingly likely that the BBC ensures a large proportion of the audience have solidly left wing views. Anyone with an ounce of decency (and a brain cell) would loathe Alistair Campbell and all he stands for, but last night he was getting his applause. No surprise that Hitler and Stalin could rise to the top. Talk about useful idiots. And Campbell was in his stride last night, rattling on with a strong, confident voice, dropping blatant lies in but making them seem just part of the whole. Stunningly though, the BBC also rammed Piers Morgan, another valueless human being onto the panel as well!! But not content that these selections were the work of a juvenile prankster, Dimmo says that Downing Street wouldn't provide a Minister if Alistair Campbell was representing Labour and that the BBC don't take instruction from Downing Street. I presume this is a recent development? Why didn't he just let Alistair say it himself, rather than to have to write it down for the completely unbiased BBC. I did think Piers was about to prove he has a use, when he started harassing Campbell (who was stuttering and stumbling for an answer) over the Iraq War, but then went and said 'I'm not saying you were lying'. Piers, accuracy isn't a sin you know.
