Just listened to him on delingpod this evening, seems like a good guy. But he did mention it could go all wrong soon and he wanted to test it....
'Speak truth to nonsense'. Poor Shami, a face like a slapped arse.
Tackled the scouse woman winding the crowd up for some old fashioned racist baying too.
with THE MEGAN ,that horrible journo hirsh argument I cant really see the point in tackling,solving overt racism because they,ll just accuse everyone of nudge,nudge, racism,might as well stick to the overt stuff and everyone no,s where they stand
Megan is always going to be the loser in any comparison to Kate Middleton the quintessential fragrant English rose with a purpose, whereas she is a yank without one.
she has done very well though - going to be running the 'sussex' brand in the USA - they will lap it up - I am somewhat miffed at not being asked to help as I am from Sussex !!!
I haven't watched QT for ages but did stumble across it last night and it confirmed why I stopped watching it. Allegedly the program was from Liverpool, but unless everyone has lost their accent in Liverpool it could have been anywhere down south. The only guest that could string a few sentences together and came across ok was the SNP politician, even though I disagree with his politics. It's safe to say I won't be tuning in anytime soon!
I thought the tory bird was auditioning for 'worst dressed tory on telly' now the Maybot has been deactivated.
That jacket was frankly ghastly and you could hear the button clank on the desk every couple of minutes, must have driven the sound engineer mental

On being called out [by irritating fellow panellist Shami Chakrabati] for choosing a man, rather than one of the four female candidates to be the next leader of the Labour party:
“Oh it’s not about women. Jeepers creepers. Sorry. Let me rewind. [Looking sarcastically at Chakrabati] Any of the women. Because it’s really important what gender you are rather than what your politics are…”
Priceless.

Ooh there's a twist.... Turns out the race baiter in the audience is Rachel Boyle a lecturer in race and ethnicity.
She's appeared on the sofa on BBC Breakfast as a newspaper reviewer.

Actors are being called on to “unequivocally denounce” Laurence Fox, after he became in embroiled in a race row during an appearance on BBC1’s Question Time.
Equity’s minority ethnic members committee described his words on the programme as “disgraceful playing to the gallery” and labelled him a “disgrace to our industry”.
The comments come after Fox addressed comments made by Question Time audience member Rachel Boyle, who said the Duchess of Sussex had been the victim of racism. “Let’s be really clear about what this is, let’s call it by its name – it’s racism. She’s a black woman and she has been torn to pieces,” Boyle said.
Fox responded by saying: “We’re the most tolerant, lovely country in Europe. It’s not racism. It’s so easy to just throw your charge of racism at everybody and it’s really starting to get boring now.”
When Boyle described him as “a white privileged male” he replied: “I can’t help what I am, I was born like this, it’s an immutable characteristic, so to call me a white privileged male is to be racist — you’re being racist.”
Responding to the exchange, the minority ethnic committee said it was “extremely disturbed” that Fox had been given a platform to “berate and bully women of colour attempting to discuss issues of race and gender discrimination”. It went on to describe Fox as a “disgrace to our industry” and said he had “occupied a highly advantaged position”, but added that he had appeared to “damn any recognition of that privilege as the very racism he claims is exaggerated when people of colour try to discuss it”.
The committee used its Twitter account to claim he was guilty of “a disgraceful playing to the gallery, a populist tirade, with women of colour being used as cannon fodder”. “We call on all Equity members to unequivocally denounce Laurence Fox and his comments,” it added.

Berate & bully women of colour, when did this happen ?
You must know all you have to do is play the race card to win an argument. Just wait for the demographic shift and see how they think about it all then.
Bendydick cumminbuckets will be demanding his resignation.
That statement says far more about the “ethnic actors minority committee” than it does about Laurence Fox.
He will get work because he’s a talented actor.
Talented actors of all colours will get work
Most of their work will come from producers, so fed up of the committees, they will employ a few tokens just to shut them up.

He said everything that was correct, they are the real racists
Posh Boy gets side-tracked by audience "plant" with basic material, and understandably fails the challenge.
He was absolutely spot on and I hope he doesn't now back down. On a side note, it's the first time I've seen him outside of Lewis - he must of stole a living in that as he comes across exactly the same as the character he plays, meaning he hadn't needed to properly 'act'.
Mr. Fox sees though all this sh1t and we should all do the same,its all B.S
This why political correctness has to be buried once and for all..
Sex attacks on young girls by Asian grooming gangs were ignored by police for fear of stoking racial tensions, a damning report has ruled.
A chief inspector from Rotherham was found to have admitted South Yorkshire Police force turned a blind eye to the harrowing cases of abuse, which he referred to as 'P*** shagging'.
The unnamed senior police officer said: 'With it being Asians, we can't afford for this to come out,' according to the Times, which has seen an advanced copy of the Independent Office for Police Conduct's five-year investigation.

This is massive but I can't find it on the BBC... Instead, highlighting their priorities, they carry this story on their headline page:
The voice actor who plays the Indian character Apu in The Simpsons has said he is stepping down from the role, following years of controversy. But the character has been accused of reinforcing racial stereotypes.

A mixed-race university lecturer accused of being racist by the white actor Laurence Fox has been bombarded with hate messages via social media, she has told the Observer.
Rachel Boyle, a researcher on race and ethnicity at Edge Hill University in Lancashire, clashed with Fox during a TV discussion about the press’s treatment of the Duchess of Sussex.
Since the row, Boyle, 39, says she has received a barrage of online abuse, mainly from people who appear to be of the alt right, via Twitter and email.
“At this stage I’m not worried but I’m going to monitor it closely,” she said. But positive responses to her appearance on BBC Question Time on Thursday far outweigh the abuse and she would “absolutely” make the same points again, she adds.
Playing the racist card and the victim card.

Laurence Fox has been branded a “disgrace” by members of the actors’ union following a heated row on BBC Question Time.
His comments were condemned by a group from the acting union Equity on Friday, who called his words “disgraceful playing to the gallery” and dubbed him a “disgrace to our industry”.
https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/laurence-fox-racism-row-question-time-equity-a4337836.html
From the Mail: One critic urged him to 'find out some more about white privilege', to which he replied: 'I would genuinely rather eat a lightbulb'.

Acting career hits the buffers; singing career doesn't get off the ground; does a Katie Hopkins and gives all the pensioners their first semi in years by being their new favourite controversialist.
Please do give very generously when he starts his begging letters.

Yep, its a long time since you you find someone who isn't "woke" getting invited on to *checks notes* Question Time or appearing on the from page of *checks notes again* The Sunday Times.
Poor little rich boy victim eh.

Fox's reply to the audience woman, accusing her of anti-White actor/singer racism was silly and self-defeating.
Fox should have acknowledged the attacks against Meghan and even that some have been racist but also that:
1) the Sussexes blew their own foot off by, for instance, their silly games around announcing Archie's birth, or
2) the press also attacked Kate at first, and Diana, and even more so Fergie -- all of them White
But he is an actor not a politician, and it showed.

TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Fox was called out by the BBC plant in the audience for being a 'white privileged male'
She was implying his skin colour and gender defined his opinion on the Meghan non story.
Of course she was being racist.
For a minute, let's play along with Ms Boyle 'argument'. I wonder if she thinks Meghan is a privileged mixed race woman? She was privately educated from the age of 2....

You are looking at members of a fairly easy going society who wish to change it to only their ideology. Only their way no other way.
It will be interesting when it clashes with the growing diaspora who will never integrate.
Woke v Book. Taking bets now

The concept of 'white privilege' is that ALL white people are privileged by virtue of being white, even if they are living in a doorway. Wealth is not a factor.

Excellent interview here, over an hour but well worth your time listening, so much that resonates.

Indeed. Listened to the podcast last night. They did well to get him the day after QT aired.
Fox on Talk Radio. 12 minutes. Superb.

I didn't realise until now that the woman in the audience Rachel Boyle was mixed race.
Should I be more woke or does it just mean I don't see a persons colour?

How do you now she was a woman Jack ? Could have bene a transgender activist masquerading as a woman,never know nowadays !
Probably need to ask new people that I meet now, 'How do you identify'.
Might be a touch risky asking a big 6'6" shaven-headed, tattooed bloke in a pub the question.
