The very nasty Laurence Fox

It was QT. But as I remember, there was no racist rant. He said some things that were racist - but he didn't rant.
In my opinion it was blown out of proportion.
There is an argument that QT shouldn't keep having random actors and comedians on as panelists, but hey ho, publicity.

Wasn’t he called a ‘white privileged male’ on QT? maybe he thought that was racist & offensive?

I don't know if any of you remember, but the odious Fox first really came to public attention with an offensive racist rant on TV. Was it Question Time? He then extended his argument onto Twitter.

I think the man is unwell, putting it kindly.

I've heard him being interviewed several times and read interviews with him.
Disregarding his very questionable opinions, he doesn't seem very bright at all.
It wouldn't surprise me if he was being manipulated to be some sort of fake figurehead.

The pandemic is showing up people's true colours.

I do wear a mask absolutely!
I’m not talking about his anti mask wearing tweets, I’m talking about what he says generally - he is allowed his opinions, whether I agree with them or not.

kandinsky are you for real?
Do you wear a mask ? Do you believe others should ?
Do you believe the virus exists?
Are you a far right follower?
Interested

I don't find it refreshing that he spouts anti-mask and anti-lockdown restrictions. Obviously thinks he knows better than the vast majority of the world's scientists.

Or perhaps he’s just not afraid to speak his mind?
Actually refreshing that an actor is prepared to speak his mind in this way, he knows it’s against all ‘lovey’ traditions and will probably never work again, but clearly doesn’t care ( not that he’ll ever be short of a few quid )

I had to turn to Google to find out who he is. He's a good actor but ... Perhaps he suffers from Unloved Middle Child Syndrome. Attention seeking.

No shinamae he bought it to wear after ruminating with himself about whether he should !!!
There are no excuses for him

I used to enjoy his character in Lewis. Yes, he is a member of the Fox acting dynasty. His father is James Fox and his uncle is Edward Fox. He was married to Billie Piper and had a family. They are now divorced. He has turned into the most ridiculous prat. I doubt if he will get anymore acting jobs. He posts a lot of nonsense on Twitter.

He's an arrogant prat who thinks he's above keeping rules.

Is he the tall geeky looking one on that tv detective series ?He is a good actor and that is where he should stay. What right do these entertainers have to proclaim how the world should be run ? Most of them seem to be believe their own publicity and have over large egos.

I think he is responsible for his actions. I still think he is not well in the way I dont think Trump is well. Fox's behaviour towards women makes me uneasy.

In that case why does anyone care about him?
He’s a male version of Katie Hopkins & best avoided.

He's started his own political party I believe. The Reclaim Party.

He’s a racist, far right big mouth, egotistical, attention seeker if that’s being poorly then he’s very ill

Did he not buy them to show how easy it was to get an exemption Lanyard?

His father- the better looking James Fox- had a mid-life crisis and became an evangelical Christian. His son seems to be trying to emulate his father but in a really bad way, as a right wing bigot. Perhaps he'll eventually go back to acting and learn to keep his mouth shut.

For anyone who watches Celebrity Gogglebox , you will recognise the loathsome Laurence Fox from appearing alongside his cousin Emelia Fox..

LF didn't appear in the last series of GB, instead Emilia was joined alongside her actress mother Joanna David.

Why is he not well?

That somehow implies he's not responsible for his actions.

Thanks for the info Lucca I don’t watch Lewis ( although used to enjoy the Morse series.)

I agree, I dont think he is well, but that doesnt help matters.

Thanks for the heads up Lucia ?
