Starting to think this Clarkson bloke might actually enjoy being under fire? Could even be that he’s built a career out of being controversial…
Isn’t his point that the market forces these ludicrous prices, and it’s to our loss? I’m sure he’s angling at taxes on alcohol, business rates, etc.
To be honest I think he has a point, with the death of churches so ends much community, pubs are one of the few places people still congregate, perhaps their social benefit should be reflected in reduced business rates and perhaps also they could also get lower tax rates on alcohol than retailers do.
You can call him a hypocrite, but he isn’t wrong about £6.50 pints.
People deliberately missing the point.
He’s not saying pubs are charging too much, he’s saying it’s ridiculous they have to charge that much.
To be fair to the man, nothing in or around Chipping Norton is cheap and he’s not serving mass-brewery carling or strongbow
His own beer sucks, by the way. I was unlucky enough to taste it for the first time last week.
People can get a pint anywhere. They come to Chotchkies for the atmosphere and the attitude.
Slow news day. If you want to go to his pub. Pay the prices or don’t go.
Where do these multi-millionaries assume that we get the cash to fund the public services.
They want lower taxes but they don’t want higher business rates.
So they want them lower but you can’t tax corporations more.
So you cut them but they don’t want higher death taxes or taxes for passing farms down generations.
All the while half of them are based in Monaco because a billion isn’t enough.
He’s voted for all the shit that caused this. Same with his rambling about the death of the village.
Tbh we need to stop getting angry at pub managers and get angry at the insane taxing.
Government needs to realise the value our spaces outside of our homes
‚Jeremy Clarkson has apologised to [the former Top Gear producer he punched](https://www.theguardian.com/media/2015/mar/10/top-gear-jeremy-clarkson-suspended-bbc-producer) after settling a £100,000 racial discrimination and personal injury claim.
[Oisin Tymon launched the action against Clarkson and the BBC](https://www.theguardian.com/media/2015/nov/13/jeremy-clarkson-bbc-sued-racial-discrimination-top-gear-oisin-tymon) after the presenter gave him a bloody lip in a bust-up last March.
Clarkson reportedly flew into a rage after being told he could not order a sirloin steak after a day of filming, allegedly calling Tymon a “lazy, Irish cunt” during a confrontation at a hotel in North Yorkshire.‘ I’d like to meet Clarkson. I think he’d come away with a different point of view.
