Russel Brand is a fair bit smarter than the media portrays as is clarkson.

1) I had no idea Russell was capable of communicating like that. Not that I necessarrily didn't think he was capable, I've just never paid a lick of attention to him outside of his movies. I'm honestly incredibly impressed with his presentation. The whole thing was well thought out, well said, and just all around very impressive.
2) I think he's both defending and attacking him. It seems to me that he's defensive of Jeremy's right to be the way he is. But he's also attacking Jeremy for being what amounts to a relic of a bygone era.
Personally I applaud Jeremy for not selling out and being Jeremy. But I also understand the BBC point of view on things. It's a tough call, bur I ultimately hope he comes back. Top Gear wouldn't be remotely the same without him.

Russell is a scum bag progressive and evil.......True evil. Listen to what he says at the end about we cannot be individuals.........This is the progressive agenda in a nutshell.
People of the UK here my words this is the balance point tipping. If progressives win out which considering what the UK has done on gun and privacy rights they might you will fail as a country. You laugh at countries like Greece and Spain.......This is your progressive pipe dream future.

The Beeb sacked Russell Brand over 'Sachgate', so it's kind of ironic that he has an opinion on this.
IMO if Clarkson physically assaulted someone in the workplace, then that is a sacking offence. It makes me smile when people come out of the woodwork claiming 'Leftie leaning' by the BBC, assault is wrong wether it's a Left or Right Hook.

He's got far too much to say and the vast majority is just noise.
No, I didn't watch the vid.
Have to think about my blood pressure.

I wanted to add Jeremy just like Russell said represents the older conservative values. This is a turning point if I have ever seen one.
If progressive ideals win out it will always lead to failure. Look back into history and see the future. TPTB love progressive ideals because they give rise to outright control.
