Take a breather from the U.S. elections and enjoy this fantasy: Jeremy Clarkson becomes Britain's Prime Minister. Clarkson, newspaper columnist and presenter of the BBC's iconic motoring show Top Gear (of which I am a big fan) has been put up for the top job in an online petition. Clarkson doesn't hold back in his rants on or off-road. His style is saying (loudly) what people are (usually) thinking. The sardonic torque-talk certainly pushes buttons. And how stylishly irritating is BBC America's Top Gear home page?
The petition's already gathered more than 30,000 signatures, and a lot of serious press. View classic Clarkson clips here.
But it's not all about cars. He also has a go at computers...
