Jeremy Clarkson's Column in The Sun: "Protest Never Works," Whales and Plankton

Though Jezza doesn't use the fatalist words of last Saturday's column, we are told that the world is "run by whales" and the plankton is us folks. "Oh, you can be a big and important plankton but that doesn't make a jot of difference if a whale has decided to eat you up."

As the more eagle-eyed reader might have guessed by now, the whale Jeremy is talking about is the British Broadcasting Company and the plankton is him own persona. "You can get a million other plankton to dress up and wave banners but Mr Whale won't even notice."

Remember how the BBC HQ was "attacked" yesterday by a faux Stig riding a tank? Do you really think that the BBC will take into consideration those 1 million signatures calling for JC's reinstatement? "The simple truth of the matters is this: Protest never works... because we are all plankton. And the world is run by whales," is how Clarkson breaks it down to us.

Then again, remember what happened Thursday night at the Roundhouse Gala in London. If you don't know what happened then, the following line and the adjacent video should be enough to satisfy your curiosity:

"I'll go down to Surrey and I'll do one last lap of that track before the f****** b******* sack me... the BBC has f***** themselves... It was a great show and they've f***** it up."
