Hi Jeremy,

After hearing Chris Mole Mp's Ridiculous Bandwagon hopping attempts to milk a two year old tragedy for his own political prominence, by calling for your sacking, I felt the need to say my piece.

One of the five Victims of Steve Wright was my little sister (Anneli Alderton)
Three of the others where young girls I’d encountered in my professional life as a youth worker and I felt fondly towards.
My Step Father is (amongst other things) a lorry driver.

And I found last Saturdays episode Pant wettingly Hilarious.

Ignore these morbid and humour impaired nay-sayers.

Anybody who's offended by this joke is a moron and has no place watching top gear in the first place.

Hoping you whether this storm of idiocy well,

All the best.

Thomas Alderton

Jeremy,
What a load of crap, this Chris Mole needs to bury himself again, i didn't listen to the comments but when ever i've watched you on Top Gear i find you, Richard and yes James (Sometimes) to be very very funny, basically i watch Top Gear for the the entertainment value as you and your team especially you Jeremy to be upfront and honest in the comments you make.
Good luck on this mate and i hope that the BBC won't do anything they regret and just wash this under the carpet like they should do.

Please see the email that i've also sent to the idiot Chris Mole:

All the best and can't wait for Top Gear to start again.. Just Hurry Up with it there's nothing on Tele that's worth watching...

FAO Chris Mole,

Whilst i appreciate the circumstances that you found your Constituency in a couple of years ago i find it very hard to understand the call you made to the BBC with regards to the sacking of Jeremey Clarkson.

He may have hit a sour point but to ask for him to be sacked is totally an over reaction on your part, Jeremy is probably the only presenter who isn't frightened of making a coment even if it upsets someone, have you read into this? No one is bothered what he said especially the people he talked about, THE TRUCKERS....

What you've basically said is that every trucker out there is guilty of this dreadfull crime that happened in your Constituency for which is not right.

Leave the bloke alone, if you can;t take a joke then perhaps you shouldn't watch or listen to him, try watching Tele Tubbies or something at least this way you won't be offened.

This country's on it's knees and all you can do is put Jeremy down, put him in power at least we will all have a smile on our face.

I'm a labour supporter and with everything that has happened in the last few months and your stupid remarks i'm seriously thinking about voting for some one else.

This country is to nannyfied and people like you don't help, if you can't take a joke then don't bother to listen to people like Jeremy Clarkson or Jonathan Ross, they are more in tune with this country than your party!

Jeremy, I just thought I would let you know , that in my circle of friends you are very well thought of indeeed ! No one can understand what all the fuss is about. These people really need to get out a bit and get a life in the real world, and then they may appreciate your humour, which is bang on! I sometimes wonder wether or not the "PC" brigade want to make the rest of us as sad and deeply depressing as they are. As Churchill said "Keep buggering on!!" and sod 'em!

Jezza,

This stuff all way out of proportion and it feels like you're being targetted for Ross and Brand's mistakes.

I hope you know that there are far more people supporting you than complaining about you and I hope that you, Hamster and Captain Slow will continue to provide the best Sunday night TV for many years to come.

Here is a copy of the e-mail I sent to Adrian Mole aged 13 and 3¾...oops sorry, I mean Chris Mole MP.

"Mr Mole,

Whilst I appreciate that local feeling about local murders will run deep in those local families, does the whole world have to be so ridiculously politically correct that nobody can joke at anything?

Following an article on BBC news online today (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7712962.stm) and following other recent stories about media complaints, I have to ask, is your political career so far down the tube that you have to jump on every bandwagon wherever you can? Wasn't this essentially a joke at lorry drivers expense, after all that's what the Top Gear article was about, lorry drivers...not lunatics who weren't stopped by the police, YOUR police, until they had committed 5 murders. Was he actually making at joke about the murder victims or their profession, or their families...or the incompetence of your police force?

How many of the complaints that have been lodged have been from lorry drivers? As far as I've heard, the drivers from several large haulage companies and other related organisations have come out in support of Jeremy Clarkson, realising that this was JUST A JOKE.

I have even found a forum article from a family member of one of the victims which stated, "One of the five Victims of Steve Wright was my little sister. Three of the others where young girls I’d encountered in my professional life as a youth worker and I felt fondly towards. My Step Father is (amongst other things) a lorry driver. And I found last Saturdays episode Pant wettingly Hilarious. Ignore these morbid and humour impaired nay-sayers", so I ask where are your grounds for putting your two-penneth into this equation?

The BBC reported your letter as stating "For Mr Clarkson to make light of murder in any circumstance must be a dismissible offence. To do so with complete disregard for the families of the murdered women should make this a matter on which I would expect you to take immediate action."

Who the hell are you to be insisting that someone be sacked from their job? If I knew of a way of complaining about statements made by politicians then I would be complaining about you and 'insisting' that you be sacked from your position. What you're basically saying is that; freedom of speech no longer exists, no-one can joke about anything sensitive and that you think YOU are the Director General of the BBC and can dictate what their internal policies are...you are despicable, your statements are considerably more offensive than anything ever said by Jeremy Clarkson and I hope that your constituents reflect on this incident when they vote in the next general election."

I would like to echo previous support for Jeremy.

Why is it that Mp's feel the need to hop on the sensationalistic band wagon these days. Perhaps they enjoy the added media noise for their own means? I have nothing against MP's (aside from the usual long list) that are actually doing their bit for the "community" (although community by it's very definition can harbour some odd balls, but that's another matter). But when they leave what little common sense they posses at the door to fame/recognition, well it gets my back up.

I understood your joke and took it in the manner it was intended.

Without your appearances on the BBC I have very little to warrant paying a license fee for.

Non illigitamus carborundum.
