Jeremy Clarkson, 62, is concerned that one of his jobs is running the risk of being axed due to the economic situation.The star, who rose to fame driving fast vehicles on BBC’s Top Gear, before moving over to Amazon Prime Video’s The Grand Tour, is now also writing a motoring column.However, Jeremy is now worrying that people will be unable to afford to buy any of the new vehicles he is busy reviewing.In the presenter’s review of the Volkswagen T-Roc, which was published today, he explained that fuel bills are now getting so high, consumers will lose interest in investing in the latest cars.While empathising with his colleagues writing in the Travel section of The Sunday Times amid chaos over cancelled flights, Jeremy realised something startling about his own career.He penned: “I’m in an even more preposterous situation. “I don’t want to talk myself out of a job, but it’s difficult to see why I’m writing a motoring column this morning. “Because even if you could buy a new car, and you can’t due to the semiconductor shortage, you wouldn’t be able to afford to go anywhere in it.”Jeremy went on to predict the situation is going to get even more difficult to handle this autumn, due to the expense of heating people’s homes.The star moaned: “I’m not normally pessimistic, but come the autumn, when people have to switch on their central heating systems and the inevitable food shortage arrives, I fear that cars are going to be filed in your ‘list of important things’ below the wellbeing of your town crier and the fortunes of Plymouth Argyle.  “I may be forced to fill the time reviewing steam locomotives and VHS players instead.”It comes as the cost of living in the UK is set to skyrocket in the coming weeks.The Bank of England.
