Starting to think this Clarkson bloke might actually enjoy being under fire? Could even be that he’s built a career out of being controversial…

Isn’t his point that the market forces these ludicrous prices, and it’s to our loss? I’m sure he’s angling at taxes on alcohol, business rates, etc.
To be honest I think he has a point, with the death of churches so ends much community, pubs are one of the few places people still congregate, perhaps their social benefit should be reflected in reduced business rates and perhaps also they could also get lower tax rates on alcohol than retailers do.

You can call him a hypocrite, but he isn’t wrong about £6.50 pints.

People deliberately missing the point.
He’s not saying pubs are charging too much, he’s saying it’s ridiculous they have to charge that much.

To be fair to the man, nothing in or around Chipping Norton is cheap and he’s not serving mass-brewery carling or strongbow

His own beer sucks, by the way. I was unlucky enough to taste it for the first time last week.

People can get a pint anywhere. They come to Chotchkies for the atmosphere and the attitude.
