Oh just what we need! More privileged men abusing their status on telly by picking on an easy target. Not women this time as with Gray and Keys, but with the Top Gear trio on the Mexicans. Captain Slow (who should know better) exclaimed Mexican food looked like sick. Hamster, who doesn't know better said they were all lazy and overweight (a lot of Mexican immigrant workers seem to keep a fair few of the cogs nicely oiled in the US service industry from my experience), and Jeremy Clarkson lambasted them for searching for better opportunities elsewhere. Which is a bit rich from a man who fucked off sharpish out of South Yorkshire to move down south when the offer came. The only thing that ever went faster than the Stig was Jeremy heading south from Doncaster on the M1. What is it with wealthy men pissing on those lower down the ladder? There is something so criminal about this I sometimes want to hit someone repeatedly with a heavy shovel? Enough of the impulse towards random acts of violence, it seems Steve Coogan feels the same and takes them to task in this very good smackdown article. Don't know if you'll be around the Top Gear track again though Steve!
But keep the good fight up.
