Mouth Almighty Laurence Fox

[Magicpaintbrush]

What an odious, misogynist he truly is.

GB News suspends Laurence Fox over comments about journalist Ava Evans - BBC News

He said, of female journalist Ava Evans: "Show me a single self-respecting man that would like to climb into bed with that woman - ever, ever. That little woman has been fed, spoon-fed oppression day after day after day. And she's sat there and I'm going like, 'If I met you in a bar and that was like sentence three, [the] chances of me just walking away are just huge." He then added: "Who'd want to shag that?"

That Little Woman??? Why is he reducing her value to whether or not he would have sex with her - firstly what the fuck has that got to do with her worthiness as a human being or indeed her job as a journalist. Secondly, why is he arrogantly assuming that she WANT to shag him anyway, I've no doubt she wouldn't touch that loathsome prick with a shitty stick.

He also goes on to say ""We need powerful strong, amazing women who make great points for themselves." Sorry, what?? A woman made a point you didn't agree with and the first thing you did was mock, degrade and dehumanise her. Stop back-peddling, it's too late - we see you, you sexist prick.

Just seen on BBC they've suspended him.

He makes me 🤮

Still trying to pick my jaw up off the floor after reading that. Appalling man.

He really does think he's some kind of amazing prize that any woman would be thrilled to have. Twit.

I totally agree that he doesn't want women with opinions, if those opinions are different to his!

He’s absolutely revolting isn’t he. He cannot get past seeing women as anything other than shag/not shag.

The “presenter” Dan Wilton also needs suspending. His retort was “she’s a very beautiful woman” where as it should have been -shut up you nasty misogynist.

Gross behaviour, sadly so many men still think like that. See it all the time online, they really don't think that women are entitled to an opinion unless they're perfect visually. So fucking shallow.

The host presenter (Dan Wooten?) also laughing at those comments. It will be interesting to see if there is any fallout for him too.

It reminds me of the Russell Brand/Jonathan Ross debacle on Radio 2.

Wasnt Ross also sanctioned?? Can’t remember now.

Ugh, what a vile, slimy little dick wrinkle that man is

He is just another inadequate little man who, mystifyingly, really fucking rates himself.

Ross was suspended from his various shows for a few weeks.

LF is a nasty misogynist, who fails to hide his contempt for women behind his MRA/Incel type comments about women and feminism.

There are only a handful of current issues I agree with Lawrence on. He is a misogynist, yes. And attacking anyone in this way is unacceptable.

What a squalid and hateful creep. A talentless mediocrity from a famous family. Is he auditioning to be the next Farage?

The host presenter (Dan Wooten?) also laughing at those comments. It will be interesting to see if there is any fallout for him too.

Interesting Wooton is not being held to account by GB News for what he's (allegedly) been up to, but they've swooped in to suspend Fox for this immediately.

He knows she is physically attractive: that's why his imagined scenario was meeting up with her in a bar.
I wonder if there's extra rage at a woman who seems to embrace femininity in hair, clothes and makeup, but then who is completely unsubmissive and not willing to pander to men. I think men feel they've been tricked. They've been attracted and made to think a woman is all soft, and when they discover she isn't, bam. Misogynistic rage.

Obviously the comments about " shagging" and so on are completely out of order.

I disagree strongly with Ava evans comments about " culture wars" and men not needing their own representation because it would be based on "blaming women for everything". There is a certain irony in those comments. Many elements of feminism hold men responsible as a sex class for "everything". Women are always the victims and men always the oppressors.

This is what Intersectionalist identity politics looks like in practice and I think women can be as guilty of it as any other identity group

I would like to say i am surprised but i am not.

Hands up anyone who would shag Laurence Fox. No, thought not.

This is who Laurence Fox is, it should be a a surprise to no-one who'd been paying attention for the last few years. He's like a male equivalent of Katie Hopkins - his whole career is being an obnoxious prat.
Dan Wooten is a gay man currently accused of a history of sexual improprieties, but currently going unpunished by his employer.

Same. He’s grim

Ah, looks like the forum's resident MRA has turned up.

God, he’s a knobhead. He wasn’t even part of the discussion but he just had to have something to say about it.

What an interesting bedfellow a lot of GC women have made their bed with...

They need to suspend Dan Wootton as well, stating there sniggering about it.

@JingsMahBucket agreed. No doubt someone will be along soon to say that you don't have to agree with everything someone says for them to be an ally. Oh wait, someone already did.

Which women? Can't recall anyone who regularly posts here supporting everything that LF says.

Occasionally what he objects to about gender ideology is the same as what feminists object to about gender ideology, although for very different reasons. I'd have thought that was a fairly obvious distinction.
