What a wonderful caring world we live in, a petition to save the NHS has received 400,000 votes, whilst a petition to save a drunken millionaire bully from losing his job has received 900,000 the mind boggles, makes me wonder where peoples priorities lay.

I take it you are talking of the piece of crap called Clarkson. I have often wondered what anyone ever found entertaining about a man so far up his own a#se.

Personally i've never had an issue with Clarksons school yard humour and he openly admits that he is mostly talking bs and I find the program entertaining. That said, it is sad day when a guy with enough money to retire comfortably can get more recognition than the NHS.

An arrogant, obnoxious character. I have always been baffled by his popularity. Maybe he could spare a couple of his 'hard earned' millions to help out the NHS.

It amazes me that 900 000 people think it is acceptable to be punched by bosses. Odious man.

We don't know the facts about Clarkson but the facts about the NHS are painfully obvious. I would put a 'yeh that' placard but can't find one.

Now he's a big girl. Can't stand the man. So far it would appear that nobody else seems to either. The support he has received, beggers belief.

The support is probably largely from the people who also think you should do away with taxes, parking fees, speed limits, ASBOs etc because they are too short sighted to realise the consequences.

The loss of parking fees seems like a good one but not any of the others. I'm man enough to say I find him entertaining and i'm certainly not short sighted. Lots of people in the media and life in general could be classed as Marmite people, love or hate them.

If the media gave the NHS petition the same airtime I'd guess it would get more response.

Sadly the counter petition that Rudebox posted was from last year when he was under fire for yet another indiscretion (the "Slope" incident)

Sign this one instead: Alan Partridge to replace Clarkson:
