Jeremy addresses Chris Packham’s derogatory comments about Clarkson’s Farm whilst appearing on Gogglebox.

Mr Packham's comments came as he watched Clarkson's Farm during an episode of Celebrity Gogglebox, where he criticised what he sees as an unrealistic portrayal of farming exclaiming the following -

"Already, right, that's not what a farm looks like. Most farms are horrible monocultures, which have been sprayed with deadly chemicals time and time again. The ground is pumped full of fertiliser, and loads of the animals are indoors in crates, being crushed and kept in the dark."

Mr Clarkson rejected the comments outright and rebutted with the following -

"The endlessly angry Chris Packham went on Gogglebox this week and erupted in blind fury about the Winnie the Pooh-ish opening credits to my farming programme," he wrote.

"Now, of course this kind of stuff plays well in a room full of nose rings and Palestine flags at a vegan activist meeting in Hackney," Clarkson wrote.

"But he was on a television programme, and it didn't play well at all."

"Because it's b*llocks"

"And Chris knows it's b*llocks because, back in 2012, he came to Diddly Squat and spent the day in our woods, foraging and bird watching," he claimed.

"If there had been some animals in a crate, being crushed, I'm sure he would have noticed and said something."

Well said Jezza.

To be clear, I have banned all Labour MPs from my pub, except one: Markus Campbell Savours. He’s welcome any time.
And not just because the Labour Party has now sacked him.

[No Farmers, No Food @NoFarmsNoFoods]

Markus Campbell-Savours (who was suspended by the Labour government for voting against the inheritance tax on family farms) has advised the Labour government to recognise the ‘deep discomfort' this is causing across rural Britain.

MPs are out in support of Farmers in Budget day. They tried to stop this protest but looks like that might have backfired. The right to protest is a fundamental right and Farmers will not be silenced.

🚜 🔊 It’s fair to say, farmers are making themselves heard today in London!

[ClarksonsFarm @ClarksonsFarm1]

Farmers are back in London to protest!🇬🇧👏🏻

[No Farmers, No Food @NoFarmsNoFoods]

Farmers arrive in Whitehall despite the last minute ban on all tractor convoy protests against the Labour government’s budget in London today.

And then having the audacity to destroy family farms with their IHT raid. Absolutely disgraceful.

One rule for them, one rule for another.

@RupertLowe10 That's their potential farming voters gone

Many congratulations to Turkey’s re-elected president Erdogan, my distinguished friend and partner in many Anglo-Turkish ventures. Let us ensure that today’s inauguration marks a new phase of increased cooperation between the UK and Turkey - our great and and indispensable ally.

Price comparison of Fruit & Veg in Uk vs Germany.

Overseas food producers sell to the highest bidder & also in times of shortage to the nearest and easiest market to deal with.

This is why UK Growers are going out of business.
