BBC presenter Jeremy Clarkson thought the furore over the government’s loss of the personal details of 25 million people as a storm in a teacup. In an effort to prove this Clarkson published his bank account details and information on how people could find out his address in a national newspaper.
Believing that “All you’ll be able to do with them is put money into my account. Not take it out. Honestly, I’ve never known such a palaver about nothing”.
However, Clarkson admitted he was wrong after he discovered a £500 direct debit had been set up in favour of the charity Diabetes UK.
Now why couldn’t someone have taken the sexist ignoramus for more?
