Jeremy Clarkson has weighed in with his thoughts on the Labour party leadership crisis

Are you ready for the hottest take on the Labour party's Brexit-triggered coup?

On Sunday it became clear that the Labour party has lurched into a fresh crisis: shadow foreign secretary Hilary Benn was sacked overnight, seven shadow cabinet ministers and counting have resigned their positions, and deputy leader Tom Watson has apparently vanished off the train he was supposed to be getting back from Glastonbury.

More resignations are expected in the next few days, putting leader Jeremy Corbyn in a precarious position. More PLP members want him gone than ever now a general election could be looming next year.

Enter Jeremy Clarkson: columnist, motorist, and a few other things besides.

"Everyone called Jeremy gets sacked eventually", he mused.

Well. There are those who punch a producer in the face because they're hangry, and those who are blamed for not being able to fix the fissures that have divided a political party for two decades in their nine month tenure.

But apples and pears, we guess.
