Manure dumped on Jeremy Clarkson's lawn
|
Horse manure has been dumped on the front lawn of Jeremy Clarkson's house by climate campaigners.
They have been protesting against the TV presenter's views on global warming.
Activists from environmental group Climate Rush said they had targeted the Top Gear presenter for his 'blasé attitude to climate change'.
The seven female protesters, dressed as suffragettes, made the stop outside Clarkson's home in Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire as part of a month-long awareness campaign.
A spokesman for the presenter said he had no comment on the stunt.
The group's spokeswoman, Tamsin Omond, 24, said: 'I love Jeremy, I love fast cars, I love progress, but I've learnt some things and those things terrify me.
'If we keep on loving the fossil-fuelled lifestyle then by the time I hit 49, the world will be too busy coping with the impact of climate change to bother about how big an engine is possible.
