Guido Fawkes delivers ‘Bring back Clarkson’ petition to BBC – in a tank

By William Turvill

Political website Guido Fawkes has delivered its petition calling on the BBC to bring Jeremy Clarkson back to Top Gear – in a tank.

Currently, its campaign page – BBC: Bring back Clarkson – has 991,124 signatories. The campaign was started after it emerged that Clarkson had punched a programme producer.

Top Gear's Stig drove the tank to Broadcasting House before the box of signatures was taken inside.

More details can be found on Guido Fawkes's Twitter page.
