North Londoner from West Cornwall. Big grandad vibes. Love cinema in the afternoon, poor tennis and lunch in nice places. Charm and conflict both. Labour.
Clarkson leads farmers with attack on BBC for asking evidence based questions. Seems angry but at least he didn’t punch anyone this time.
“So it’s not about you, it’s not about your farm and the fact you bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax?”

Strikes me that the farmer’s protests are in favour of a pre entry closed shop of the kind banned for workers by Thatcher. The right to hand on your job , business and assets to your children (or sell )without taxation is unique to farming and landowning. She introduced it for them in a class bung.
