Jeremy Clarkson rages Britain's hit 'rock bottom' with scathing one word Starmer dig

has said Britain has hit "fallen off a cliff to rock bottom" over the last 20 years. Whilst the star has managed to find success in the farming and pub industry thanks to his hit Amazon Prime series , other farmers and landlords are struggling to survive thanks to a series of cuts from the government.

Speaking to The Telegraph, Clarkson believes London has been hit the hardest, with crime rates rocketing and businesses being forced to close. He said: "London's really suffering I think. You see streets and think, 'God, this was thriving not that long ago'; now it's all boarded up or charity shops. As you walk around, for the first time, in all of London, you're conscious about not being on your phone. It's a big change. It's socialism. The sewage doesn't work. Mobile phone coverage has got worse. And the potholes. I know I'm sounding like an old person now, but it's shocking. I don't know what they do with the money."

The former Top Gear star also hit out at Prime Minister Keir Starmer, after he and Rachel Reeves sparked uproar with the announcement they would be hiking inheritance tax for farmers.

Clarkson, along with thousands of farmers around the UK, protested these hikes in London, and he has not held back on his opinion of Starmer since then.

He said: "He's annoying." He added: "Even when he's not being annoying, he sounds annoying. He's got somebody else's spectacles. How much time does he spend every day on his hair? I don't understand. I just get up and have hair for the day.

"He has to put things in his hair, which means he is concentrating on his appearance. And any man who concentrates on his appearance is a little suspect, in my view."

On the farm, Clarkson has been facing a multitude of issues, from a disappearing Kaleb Cooper to a particularly violent pig, not to mention facing six months of rain which left farmers panicking for their crops.

He has realised every year on Diddly Squat brings him new troubles, with the first year being Covid, then the second a battle with the council, and then the third left him and Lisa devastated after they lost a huge number of pigs.

Despite facing a huge number of setbacks on the farms over the years, Clarkson won't let them get to him, and season four even see him take on a huge new project in the form of The Farmer's Dog pub in Burford, Oxfordshire.

Speaking on the show, Clarkson declared this could be the way to save the farming industry as it faces more turmoil; growing and selling your own farm products which then ends up on people's pub plates at reasonable prices.

Clarkson's Farm season four is airing on Amazon Prime.
