Fox said he is “really happy to talk” with the charity. For him, white privilege doesn't exist as a useful concept. It's orf! He drains his glass of beer. As we know, there is no snowflake quite so snowflakey as a self-styled scourge of snowflakes.

This new role as a political party leader, he admits, is rather a change from his previous life.

How does it feel to be the most hated man in Britain?

Simon Blake, the chief executive of Mental First Aid England and the deputy chair of Stonewall, announced last Monday that he is suing Fox for defamation after an exchange on Twitter. To me, Fox, 42, is an emblem of the new political cleavage, or 'culture war', between those who believe that Britain, and more specifically 'white people', are at the root of all evil, and others who maintain that we can, and should, be proud of our liberty and our history. He rails against what he calls 'permanently offended millennials' and imagines that if there ever was a foreign strike against our country, they would simply say: 'I find your submarine attack really offensive.'.

'Our country is now in desperate need of a new political movement which promises to make our future a shared endeavour, not a divisive one. Brushing the vitriol aside, he said: 'You wouldn't think I was 'the most hated man in Britain' if you walked down the street with me. The name is not yet registered with the Electoral Commission. She harangued him, labelling him a 'racist bully' and also again called him a 'privileged white man'. To Fox, it is nothing less than the defence of 'Western democratic values – which he describes as 'the stuff we had around dinner tables when we were children'. Furthermore, Fox is the sort of passionate defender of free speech who would be outraged if you mentioned he’s looking increasingly dishevelled these days, and is probably best interviewed on the finer points of Enlightenment history before lunch. According to Laurence, he has already raised £5m, including sums from former Tory donors. Truly a land of hopelessness and ingloriousness, and I myself will take to a pub car park to fight anyone who ever attempts to “celebrate” this particular phase of our national history. 'This is authoritarian – I don't believe his promises on testing or the competence of the government.

In his view, it was her comments that constituted racial abuse. What could be more anti-establishment?

Reclaim has already been described as ‘UKIP for culture’. What is his solution? By now, you may feel we are racing ahead of ourselves, so let’s sling another chair leg on the fire and treat ourselves to a recap.

Fox readily admits that he is privileged, but does not see the reason to reference his skin colour. In fact, bringing up Farage in this context is even more pertinent, since I agree with Fox on one thing — there is a space opening up for a new right-wing party in Britain.

It’s like Bruce Wayne deciding to run for Gotham City council on a continuity platform. Laurence Fox on Good Morning Britain earlier this year. Cut to six months later, to find you soaked to the skin 24 hours a day by the cry-laugh emoji, snatching 10 minutes’ sleep – standing up – before it’s time to tweet something historically pointless again, and sobbing your heart out as some random BBC executive takes nine hours to expire out in the razor wire of no-man’s land. Reclaim raises £15,000 in one day to challenge Laurence Fox over name 12 Oct 2020 News The charity Reclaim has raised over £15,000 in 24 hours as it attempts to prevent the actor Laurence Fox from using the same name for his new political party. I would retort that Trump’s success owes a lot to the American system of primaries, not to mention the fact that Trump infiltrated an already existing party. It’s ALL amazing, and you have to love it all, the same amount, and not make disloyal judgments that some of it, maybe, was a bit of a shitter for some people.

), 'Once this is done and this battle is done, I will definitely take off the cloak, put it in the drawer in case it's ever needed again, and I'll be back acting again.'. There is a mission statement, in which someone who used to be number two to Inspector Morse’s former number two declares that our public institutions have overreached themselves. Having spent two months of a plague summer arguing over such matters as Proms songs, we move into a plague autumn for more of the same, with neither side having managed to move their trench so much as a quarter of an inch. LAURENCE Fox's political party that has vowed to "fight the culture wars" has raised £5 million in donations just hours after its official launch, the actor claimed today.

He is still fuming after a tense confrontation on Wednesday with Alibhai-Brown on Jeremy Vine's Channel 5 talk show. He recently spent a day publicly attacking the actor Rebecca Front for “cancelling” him, on the basis she had blocked him.

On Sunday, Laurence posted a single picture with his fists pushed together so the new inkings read “Freedom Space”. The actor, singer and now politician rejects such a thought.

Trying to break the duopoly, even to the point of becoming a minor party with enough MPs to make any sort of a difference, is almost impossible.

Reclaim can only make the cultural divisions that we suffer at present even sharper. So, winning the second world war, of course, but also stuff like getting conquered by the Normans, and syphilitic kings screwing over their underlings, and the enclosures and the religious torture and the executions and whatnot. Over many years it has become clear that our politicians have lost touch with the people they represent and govern.

Sunday 11 October 2020 08:37 Laurence Fox has been threatened with legal action over his plans to set up a political party called Reclaim. Significantly, the actors' union, Equity, was forced to apologise after calling him a 'disgrace to our industry' and claiming he'd been given a platform to 'bully and berate women of colour' for debating the issue with a Question Time audience member. Fox voted for Jeremy Corbyn in 2017, before switching to the Conservatives last year, explaining that he could 'never vote for an antisemite'.
