Jeremy Clarkson to stand against Nick Clegg?



The Pink News conference blog reports an intriguing rumour circulating at the Tory Conference in Birmingham:

a rumour was running ... round the room like wildfire. Nothing as exciting as a resignation, unfortunately.

Just the frankly bonkers idea that Jeremy Clarkson, the Top Gear presenter who is some sort of god to middle aged heterosexual men, will be standing as a candidate for the Tories. Against Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg.

Wiser heads pointed out that Mr Clarkson's stance on the environment is unlikely to endear him to the Tory leader.

No, I don't believe it either. But it is worth noting, as Lib Dem Voice has, that Cameron's commitment to green policies has been played down of late.
