Laurence Fox isn’t backing down any time soon.
Actor Laurence Fox said this morning that ‘woke’ people are ‘fundamentally racist’ and blasted the singer Lily Allen for telling him to stick to acting.
Fox – who railed against identity politics on Thursday’s Question Time – told Julia Hartley-Brewer on Talk Radio that the country is tired of being told it’s racist.
The host had asked him about Harry and Meghan‘s decision to step down and what he thought of claims made by some of their supporters that the Duchess faced unfair scrutiny due to her skin colour.
It’s refreshing that someone is finally standing their ground against the cry-bullies of racist wokeness. That someone is finally saying what the rest of us have been thinking. That someone, finally, isn’t going to bend the knee and apologise. Thank fuck!
‘What they are accusing you of is what they are,’ he said. ‘They are everything they accuse you of. The wokist are fundamentally racist.’ He added: ‘Identity politics is extremely racist.’
Yes! Yes! Yes! Absolutely. He neatly skewers the rank hypocrisy of Lilly Allen as well, so bonus points there.
The full interview is here. Well worth a watch.
“…blasted the singer Lily Allen for telling him to stick to acting…”
One would be tempted to respond by telling Lily Allen to stick to singing, but having once heard her attempt, I feel that is yet another something of which she knows absolutely nothing.
She is as vacuous as she is talentless.
He will be hounded out of his industry for daring to tell the truth. I hope he has enough wealth to sit it out.
Maybe. It hasn’t harmed Jon Voight’s career. Or Dean Cain’s career.
Or we buy his new album and keep him pointed at our enemies…..
I definitely will.
Doubt if I’ll like it, but if everybody bought one, it would be a wonderful message to send. Get “woke” go broke. Speak the truth, make a mint!
There does seem to be something in the air.
We’re mad as hell and not going to take it any more.
He does seem to have struck a chord with the public. Look at how fast the actor’s union did a 180 when they realised public opinion wasn’t on their side.
