his acting was always very one note. he was never going to enjoy the success of his father or uncle.

If hes prepared to be like this in public, imagine him behind closed doors. Well done Billie for ditching the yob.

I remember reading an article where he spoke about how he would deliberately "wind the shit out of her" to get a reaction and that he would scream in her face but it was fine because he "never broke any of her teeth". He's an emotional abuser.

Once heard him described as having "she's turned the weans against me" energy and it's so true.

I remember when DW did the Entertainment news on GMB now he's pretending he's a serious "anti woke " journalist.

He is a prick . Gives me the creeps

Delightful. Even more vile than I've imagined. What an example as a father.

At the risk of coming across as a sympathiser because he is a knob (although I do weirdly admire that he refuses to be cancelled by anyone) his comment was nothing at all to do with how she looks and everything to do with her abhorrent (to him) left wing politics and views on many other things that caused him to lose his erection and not want to shag her.

Whoosh!

I saw him in a theatre play some years ago. I can’t remember the other actor, I think LF was the main draw. Who’d have thought he’d ditch the acting for this?

The acting business ditched him.😂😂😂

Show quote history

Well he sounds an absolute delight! His family must be so proud!

Billy Brag jumping in now and telling women what to do!

Laurence Fox

The only thing I find surprising is that so many people actually liked his Lewis character. To me he oozed arrogance even in that. It was obvious something like this would happen eventually, he's been out of control and can't keep his mouth shut for months. Ranting on twitter has gone to his head.

When did Blly Bragg become such a sexist turd ?

SuddenlyOld · 28/09/2023 06:59

Why would anyone other than racist/misogynist/fascist/far right blokes watch GBN? And why do the BBC et al give them publicity?

cakeorwine · 28/09/2023 08:04

Laurence Fox is a proud feminist and supporter of women's rights.
Except when it comes to how he treats women.
Then he couldn't give a shit about women

cakeorwine · 28/09/2023 08:06

And looking at his tweets, I think he's burning his bridges with GB News.

Oh yeah he doesn't care he is so egotistical and privileged that he expects to land on his feet.

I mean, really, what on earth is going on with him?

I remember him being edgy and cool and for the people etc etc now he just seems a grumpy old sexist man it's depressing.

Who watches this stuff? It's men. Seriously depressing

@Fizzadora eww, with that kind of thinking, what do you think he wants to do to Braverman, P Patel, Hopkins, others in his corner of the Right? I’ll go and bleach my brain.

Honestly, you're no better. These are women too and this isn't acceptable either.

availablesometimes · 28/09/2023 09:02

I dd have a wry smile to myself last night when I decided to peruse LF's Twitter/X to see what he had to say for himself. Apparently Dan W had apologised profusely and tried to blame it all on LF. LF then posted an (alleged!!) screenshot of texts between him and DW, showing that DW and he had been laughing about it after it aired.

Basically a mutual throwing each other under the bus! Such charming humans.

Jim Davidson told this joke on Dan Wooton less than two weeks ago. “What’s the difference between a drug dealer and a prostitute? A prostitute can wash her crack and sell it again” Dan Wooton laughed. So is it only different if the woman who’s the butt of the joke has a name? I was personally disgusted, but apparently that was totally acceptable? Am I missing something?

That is vile, having said that not unexpected from Jim Davidson.

jays · 28/09/2023 09:16

Very true!

NigelHarmansNewWife · 28/09/2023 09:17

The only person I know who watches GB News used to watch Russia Today! They were also a Brexit supported and drove round with a UKIP poster in their car. And a woman.

As for Billy Bragg - who is he to police the actions of women? He obviously doesn't understand there are some situations where it isn't necessary to counter what has been said. Any right thinking person can tell LF and DW's behaviour has been abhorrent.

I suppose we don't know who people are on here but I was watching a thread the other day, don't remember what it was, where several people were speaking highly of GBNews. I even thought maybe I should give it a chance. So glad I didn't bother.

I assume the majority on here are women so maybe some women do actually like that stuff.

I haven't seen LF since he was on Lewis but watching that clip he seems deranged. Is he well?

DW I've always found creepy even just doing the showbiz stuff on was it This Morning?

TooBigForMyBoots · 28/09/2023 09:42

I watch GB News, but I don't rate it highly at all. Its a misogynist cesspit with a couple of decent commentators.

It's not a news channel.
