Having seen his employers at the BBC  issue an apology over remarks made on the popular TV show Top Gear by his co-presenter Richard Hammond describing Mexicans as ‘lazy, feckless and flatulent’, Clarkson has accused the corporation of having no sense of humour.

Writing in the daily comic the Sun, Clarkson attempted to make the point that without offensive humour, there can be no jokes. He goes on to quote several jokes involving various nationalities, including British.

Then despite the earlier apology Clarkson was at it again claiming, ‘Mexico doesn’t have an Olympic team, because anyone who can run, jump or swim is already across the border.’

Barely amusing to be honest and never a joke.

It appears that Mexicans may well have the last laugh though as a Mexican student in London has instructed lawyers to bring a test case against the Top Gear presenters, demanding that the BBC is taken off air and an investigation is made over the comments by its presenters.

He was attending the Mallorca Classic Car Rally on the 21st March 2009, and obviously surrounded by some of his many fans!
