Climate protesters' gift lands Jeremy Clarkson right in it
CLIMATE campaigners dumped horse manure on TV presenter Jeremy Clarkson's front lawn in protest against his views on global warming.
Activists from environmental group Climate Rush unloaded the bag-loads of manure at his home in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, with a banner which read: "This is what you're landing us in".
The campaigners said they had targeted the Top Gear presenter for his "blas attitude to climate change", including a recent trip driving to the Arctic which they claim emitted an estimated 1.7 tonnes of carbon.
The group's spokeswoman, Tamsin Omond, 24, said: "I love Jeremy, I love fast cars, I love progress. But I've learned some things, and those things terrify me.
"I learned that climate change will make my future unrecognisable. I know I'll not have the same choices that Jeremy has now."
