The world was shocked to the core today when Jermey Clarkson took a vow of silence, thus failing to verbally attack anyone with his pointless idiotic rants.
Recent targets include Indians, public sector workers, cockle pickers and The Isle of Sheppey - and that's just in the last month.
The Prime Minister, a close friend through the Chipping Norton secret circle, refused to officially comment but in an off the record briefing whispered to Andrew Marr that he was relieved he doesn't have to bat off 'the Jeremy question' for Friday at least.
It is not clear which charity will benefit from the sponsored silence, but Clarkson gave a two fingered salute to waiting journalists today - prompting suggestions The Winston Churchill War Memorial Fund will pocket some spondoolies early next week.
