Candidate for Hypocrite of the Month must be Stewart Lee in the Guardian.
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/jan/12/ricky-gervais-and-jeremy-clarkson-are-no-laughing-matter
Clarkson’s suggestion that Australians needed to “come home”, while unconsciously prefiguring the mass migrations the climate crisis will cause in this decade, could read as a slap in the face to indigenous Australians, for whom the continent has always been “home”, even before it was officially discovered for them by a helpful Dutch bloke in 1606.His hyperbole is all good knockabout stuff. It's panto season after all.
But the whole article is criticising Clarkson for doing the exact same schtick from the other side of the divide.
Such a lack of self-awareness would be remarkable. Except he has not opened comments so he clearly is aware.
Hence Hypocrite of the Month.

Do you know if that only occurred to diesel engines with electronic engine management systems?
The possibility of biodiesel FAME ending up in marine diesels has worried boat owners without electronic engine management, but I think that is more to do with Diesel Bug

After a few years of experimenting with veg oil and bio-diesel in diesel engines and some acquaintances experiences - you can mess a diesel engine up pretty good (as in wreck)with both.... I didn't - but I could see elevated carbon build up and some oddness with lube oil deterioration.
Urban watermelons that get all emotional over mud on their (this month's model) trainers dictating what fuels we can all use ..... yeah, like that's a good idea...
I hope we'll see more from Mr. McDick.

... and the great idea was to make diesel engines run on vegetable oils, now there is a glut of vegetable oils, so vegans get the runs on that.

This must be very worrying for Guardian readers, for the The Guardian to issue warnings.

The Guardian reports on Trump without demonic verses, but has to outsource the writing to Agence France-Presse, as none of their regulars were capable

Parallels between the BBC & the Iranian Revolutionary Guards?
After the death of Soleimani , the IRG media encouraged crowds to the streets
all part of pushing their Muslim-supremacist propaganda.
Whereas the BBC media have encouraged crowds to the streets
to show their HATE against Trump
and encouraged crowds to the streets in honour of Greta
.. all part of pushing their Green-supremacist propaganda

Unfortunately, The Guardian should share the award for printing this:
"Does Clarkson gaze at Boris Piccaninny Watermelon Letterbox Cake Bumboys Vampires Haircut Wall-Spaffer Spunk-Burster Fuck-Business Fuck-The-Families Get-Off-My-Fucking-Laptop Girly-Swot Big-Girl’s-Blouse Chicken-Frit Hulk-Smash Noseringed-Crusties Death-Humbug Technology-Lessons Surrender-Bullshit French-Turds Dog-Whistle Get-Stuffed FactcheckUK@CCHQ 88%-lies Get-Brexit-Done Johnson and wonder why he isn’t prime minister?"
Stewart Lee might be wondering why Gervais and Clarkson earn millions with their senses of humour.
