Jeremy Clarkson has U-turned on his claims over why he bought his farm Jeremy Clarkson has backpedalled on his previous comments about why he bought his farm, saying he thought it would be a ‘better PR story if I said I bought it to avoid paying tax’. The TV presenter and journalist defied doctors’ orders by joining thousands of farmers in London on Tuesday to protest against agricultural inheritance tax changes.
His comments come after he told Derbyshire at the protest: ‘Okay, let’s start from the beginning. I wanted a shoot, okay? That’s even worse to the BBC. I wanted a shoot, which comes with the benefit of not paying inheritance tax. Now I do. ‘But people like me will just put it in a trust, and as long as I live for seven years that’s fine, and as my daughter said, “You will live for seven years”. ‘You might be in a deep freeze at the end of it, but you will live for seven years.
