I haven't read all this guff, but he seems to be a huge figure of sympathy because of his failure to make his farm work out.

"Naomi; You'll defend Clarkson's disgusting abuse?"
You're being ridiculous.
It wasn't "disgusting abuse", it was humorous hyperbole, which is JC's style, and always has been. Do you think he really wanted to throw excrement at Markle?
I have no doubt had, say, Toynbee said something similar you wouldn't be as outraged; you simply don't like Clarkson, which is fair enough, but it wasn't "disgusting abuse", far from it.
Re: Clarkson's farm, the villagers are demonstrating nimbysim, and the local council are being vindictive and pernicious. In one of the shows, where Clarkson was denied building a farm track on his land, he asked Charlie if he had ever heard of such a thing, and the answer was (paraphrasing) "No, they've denied YOU Jeremy", so it's clearly personal.
The lawyer acting on behalf of the villagers (the same lawyer that appeared in one of the shows and was advising JC), put forward an argument, with a straight face presumably, that because of the price of the pats of butter being sold in the farm shop, they were souvenirs!
