Clarkson’s visitors

[JP1]

Jeremy Clarkson called 999 to report 'travellers' on his farm

The Clarkson's Farm presenter said that police threatened to report him for being 'racist'

Jeremy called the police after a visit and the call handler said if he continued with his description she / he would be forced to open a racial enquiry even though Clarkson said they’d described themselves as travellers

Focking hell!!!!

Pure racial profiling by JC

Did he report all recent visitors to the Police-of course not.

If a Copper turns up would he automatically assume they're about to kidnap and murder a woman?

Strangely I doubt the percentage of police that are like that is barely measurable compared to the theiving scum pikies where almost 100 % are bad. You can can call it judgemental racist or whatever but it doesnt make it any less true.

The police should be investigating the 999 gate keeper call handler for ‘dereliction of duty’.
What has it come to, that we can’t access local doctors or the police without having to spend 10 minutes dealing with a box ticking exercise?

A while back: “Is the patient sitting up and talking?” - no, I’ve just told you, he’s barely conscious in the middle of the road with multiple fractures, just send an ambulance…
She also couldn’t write down a grid reference, gave it to her about 5 times, she couldn’t repeat it back correctly, completely the wrong person for the job.
Heard from a mate in the fire brigade that there was “hell on” about the call handling, as ‘999’ failed to pass on the call for around 30 minutes. Wasn’t a good outcome for the biker…

He loves winding up “The Authorities”.

The other point, using the term travellers is more a statement of culture than race. The term racism is used far too often when actual race, colour, size or whatever is not the issue but questioning a form of culture.

I bet if he told the call handler he was teaching them what it was like to be a seal cub in the 70's with an aluminium bat the police would have have arrived in a helicopter within 5 minutes with an armed response team....for him. It is a shocking truth in this country that criminals have been endowed with more rights than the offended person in a criminal event and subsequent investigation.
Conversations such as the one J.C had are the reason the public trust in the police has reached an all time low. When victims of theft are not notifying the police but going on to social media and offering rewards, when victims of poaching, assault or muggings just go home instead of calling the police there is something wrong at the very root of what policing has become and I doubt many law abiding tax payers want or petitioned for this change. Robust policing is a thing of the past. When the police cannot move a bunch of aging men and shrieking women from a motorway you know they are no longer in charge of any given situation.

Emergency services regularly complain about non urgent calls to 999.

This was a prime example- a man with a history of thinking and acting like he's better than everyone else dialling 999 because he thinks he's too important to use the non urgent number like the rest of us have to.

If he had any concerns that they were casing his place, why didn't he just do what they did-take a picture?

They then wonder why people start taking the law into their own hands .
The pc idiot woke brigade will ring their hands before long trying to blame others instead of looking in the mirror to find the problem

So a 61 year old man who isnt exactly a prime Male takes a picture of a couple of potential thieves, wecan all see where that would end. Open your eyes and see what's happening, when they kick in your door and walk off with stuff while scaring your wife, mother or daughter shitless you might change your mind.

I have to say I think if I tried to take a picture of the hare courses I doubt they would pose with a smile for me. the on the ground police I speak to are so fed up with their superiors softly softly approach they can’t wait to retire ASAP.

 

[Bongodog]

This is bizarre to say the least, "traveller" is the official preferred terminology, Police Forces, District Councils etc all have "traveller liaison officers" Are they now racist ?
If he had used p*k*e, g*p*o etc I could understand the call handlers approach

They were asking to take a picture of him-all he had to do was say he wanted one of them in return.

If they said "no" that's when you'd get suspicious, not before.

Seems bloody queer that a guy who loves getting on the telly, gets in a state when someone asks for a selfie with him.


He's just a publicity seeker, if he wasn't a farmer, hardly anyone on TFF would give a two bob bit about what he says and does.

This happens weekly around here, 12-24 hr wait’s for an ambulance yet they don’t send the fire service or first responders
Strangers driving them to the hospitals in the back of a car as handlers arn’t passing it on to first responders/fire service. I know of 3 incidents last weekend in the vicinity where they weren’t notified about the incident but are then asked why didn’t they arrive

Everyone should have the right to privacy on their own ground without travellers, fans, haters or any other idiot thinking they can waltz onto your property for a quick picture for 2 minutes of fame on Instagram.
@betweenthelines at what stage of wealth or public recognition are you suggesting you lose that right.

A wife of a friend of mine took a job as a doctors receptionist after she had a baby.
She wanted something local rather than a career job.
She left after 3 weeks as she said it was so stressful and that the responsibility on untrained receptionists was to great. She said she was told it was her job to decide if those phoning in needed to see the doctor or not. She said that she couldn’t decide as she had no training or medical background, but was then rollocked by the doctor if she let them through!

Have you tried ringing 101? Round here you get 3 or 4 minutes of recorded gibberish, then get told to go online, then the line goes dead.
If you go online they seem more interested in your race and sex than the crime, you go through pages of PC bo!!ocks.
Don't know why they can't just give you an email address if they're too lazy to answer the phone.
