Jeremy Clarkson has had his say on the ongoing agricultural protests around the city of Paris after French farmers laid "siege" to the capital.

Over 200 tractors blocked roads in and out of the city on Monday as they continue to call for action to be taken over rising costs, endless EU red tape and the profit-slashing competition of foreign food imports.

On Tuesday, President Emmanuel Macron attempted to clarify the situation for the crisis as he pinned the blame on the ongoing war in Ukraine.

But instead of staying in the country, Macron had jetted off on Monday night to Sweden with his two-day state visit scheduled to end on Wednesday.

Now, with tractors still blocking the way and farmers vowing to "starve" Paris of food in the hopes the government will take action, Clarkson has weighed in.

In a social media post on X, formerly Twitter, on Tuesday evening, the TV presenter-turned-farmer wished his French counterparts "good luck" in their quest for change.

His initial message was penned in French but a translation on X reads: "French farmers. I bet no one has ever said that before, but good luck, coming from England."

Clarkson has never been one to shy away from shining a light on the hardships farmers face - including making a measly £144 profit in his first year of farming at Diddly Squat, Chipping Norton.

The Grand Tour star was soon flooded with messages of thanks as well as support following his post, including from one follower who penned: "Thank you Jeremy! As a card carrying Frenchman, it means a lot coming from a Brit!"

"Tu es incroyable, Jeremy Clarkson!" another added while a third weighed in: "[The UK] need to take note."

Agriculteurs français. Je parie que personne n'a jamais dit cela auparavant, mais bonne chance, venant d'Angleterre.

Clarkson's wading into the debate comes just days after one French farmer participating in the demonstration lauded the presenter for his awareness-raising efforts.

Farmer Robin Leduc works on a farm in Canly, France and praised Clarkson as he called for a celebrity in his home nation to pull off something similar.

Leduc told the Telegraph: "We need a French celebrity to do the same as Jeremy Clarkson.

"Everything he explains in it [Clarkson's Farm] is why we are here today.

"You may have left the EU, but we share many of the same problems regarding all these environmental rules."

Clarkson will soon be back on screens for a third season of Clarkson's Farm.

Amazon has already greenlit a fourth series of the record-breaking show, meaning there's plenty more drama from Diddly Squat.
