Right, all these grim defences of Jeremy Clarkson have driven me to do the unthinkable: share an article by Dan Hodges. He's right: we're going backwards, and the rise of Ukip has a lot to do with it. The other day I had a spat with the Times' Tim Montgomerie, who defended Ukip MEP Roger Helmer's homophobia with these words: "He's a principled traditionalist and far from a hateful man." It's a worrying and ugly road we're now on, and that's why this matters.http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/danhodges/100269826/jeremy-clarkson-and-n-r-ukip-and-romanians-is-this-really-2014/
