Jeremy Clarkson will lead charge of angry farmers in Westminster despite urgent warning from doctor

Clarkson's Farm star, Jeremy Clarkson, is expected to rock up at a rally at Parliament Square in Westminster today where a band of farmers will gather to protest against the Government

Jeremy Clarkson has admitted he's going to defy his doctor's orders and put himself in a 'stressful' situation today.

The Clarkson's Farm star, 64, had an emergency operation on his heart in October. However, he's determined to go to Westminster and lead a charge of angry farmers, who are protesting against the Government's new taxes for farms.

Speaking about the impassioned rally, which will hear from celebrities and farming leaders while a procession to Parliament Square will be reportedly be spearheaded by children on toy tractors, he said: "I will be there, despite having letters from doctors telling me not to go on the march and saying I must avoid stress.”

Talking to The Sun, he added: “We have got two coaches of farmers from around here who are leaving from Diddly Squat. It is a hugely important issue.”

The Top Gear star, who is set to rock up at Parliament Square today with his Clarkson's Farm co-star, Kaleb Cooper, has also been in talks with organisers to give a speech as a row about the new “tractor tax” deepens.

Protests already erupted outside the Welsh Labour conference over the new taxes for farms worth more than £1 million, which have been fulled by uncertainty about Treasury figures the Budget bombshell is based on.

Meanwhile, last week, Jeremy accused the government of “ethnically cleansing” the British countryside to make way for “immigrant towns” on farmland.

Writing in his Sun column to criticise the inheritance tax extension proposed by Chancellor Rachel Reeves, he wrote: “I’m becoming more and more convinced that Starmer and Reeves have a sinister plan. They want to carpet bomb our farmland with new towns for immigrants and net zero wind farms."

The dad-of-of-three ended up in hospital in October before candidly revealing that he'd undergone a heart procedure following a "sudden deterioration" in his wellbeing.

The Grand Tour presenter experienced difficulty climbing stairs after a swim while on holiday, and his condition didn't improve upon returning to the UK.

As reported at the time, the former Top Gear host shared that he felt "clammy," experienced a "tightness" in his chest and had "pins and needles" in his left arm. Concerned of a potential heart attack, he sought medical attention and ended up going to hospital in an ambulance, where he said they ruled out a heart attack following an ECG, blood tests and X-rays.

After it was decided Jeremy would need a stent to improve the blood flow to the heart, Jeremy summed up his time in hospital, writing in his column for the Sunday Times: "It wasn't especially painful. Just odd," adding that he has thought since: "Crikey, that was close."

He also tried to make light of the situation admitting that he was "wondering what water tastes like and if it's possible to make celery interesting" after his health scare. Jeremy has already given up smoking after he got pneumonia while on holiday in Spain.
