Jeremy Clarkson opened the doors to his new pub for the first time on Friday after focusing all his recent efforts on revamping The Farmer’s Dog.
However, it seems he already has a list of unwelcome guests – including the Prime Minister, Keir Starmer.

Not long after, it seems his filming for the new series of Clarkson’s Farm at the pub site was interrupted by military aircraft.
It’s understood cameras had to stop rolling at the site recently due to giant military aircraft. The MailOnline reports some of the world’s biggest military transporters fly directly over the pub, formerly called The Windmill, on training exercises from Brize Norton, Britain’s biggest RAF base.
The base is just 1.5 miles away from the site – where Clarkson was spotted filming. The publication reports he was witnessed making several attempts to shoot part of an episode believed to be focusing on the new project.
Clarkson was seen standing on a new decking area in the pub and pointing at the sky as he attempted to speak directly to the camera.
However, things seem to have been smoothed over for the big day, and huge crowds could be seen wanting to catch a glimpse of The Farmer’s Dog on Friday.
Clarkson made clear his political stance though when he didn’t hold back in stating Starmer wouldn’t be served a pint at the new pub.
When asked if the new Labour Government understands the rural economy, he replied that they are “a hopeless bunch”.
Speaking to Times Radio, he was probed about whether Starmer would ever get an invite to the boozer.

“No, he’s banned,” Clarkson announced. “Actually he’s the first person to be banned. He’s actually on a board in the hall, he’s banned.”
When asked what he’s holding against the Prime Minister, the farmer responded: “Er, hello? I thought you were running a news operation.
“He hasn’t done much to endear himself to me yet. We’ll have a look at farming (though). It might turn around, you never know.”
