WATCH OUT, GEORGE, HE'S GOT A SCREWDRIVER!
Look, he just wants a world where a man who earned everything he ever achieved by the sweat of his own father's surname can receive fair credit for his poor little rich man's burden; a world where he can be recognised for his abilities not just a versatile and multidisciplined unemployable actor but also as a single parent, heroically juggling the incineration of sausages one week in two with red-cheeked bellowing at voicemails from his ex-wife about him lunching out a scheduled custody handover yet again; a world where good old salt-of-the-earth chang is indigenous and not none of that foreign muck.
Is that too much to ask for?

He gave an interview to the Telegraph in 2002 when he was still known as an actor - archived here and mentioned earlier in the thread
In 2020, shortly after his "career defining" performance on Question Time he gave an interview to the Sunday Times
The Interview: Laurence Fox talks Billie Piper, divorce and career suicide - archived
In it he expanded on this anecdote:
But I haven't seen anything like the version of these events in your post. I'd agree with moochedit about editing it.

Given that he no longer has a party, his law firm collapsed when Harry Miller got pissed off he was just using it as a means to promote Andrew Bridgen's anti-vaxx bullshit (and then he subsequently fell out with Bridgen too), it can't be long before his main backer Patrick Hosking writes him off as a bad investment and the money stops coming in. I do hope that moment occurs during this latest bout of "Lozza gets sued for every penny".
On the downside, when that happens it'll inevitably just mean more money for Reform Ltd.

The 'happily getting off with a pair of twins.' Can I just say, no woman that I have ever known has thought, you know what would make this situation even hotter? Getting another family member involved. Think about it for a minute ffs. I bet they were Swedish, too.

Tbf wasn't that impressed by the pink lighting thing either. Had to get to end of the news piece I was watching to gather it was a thing. Reminded me of Rimmer in Red Dwarf ordering red alert..to which Kryten pointed out that meant changing the light bulb

Seems reasonable enough to me. I mean to say, what sort of snowflake society have we created if a talentless member of the privileged classes can't spout an endless gak-fuelled torrent of vile racist, sexist, homophobic and transphobic effluence into the X without being taken to court? This country's becoming more and more like East bleedin Germany if you ask me. 'Sadiq' Khan? I should coco, STASI Khan more like. I mean you take them Zoroastrians...

I was in and around Dundalk a couple of weeks ago, partly to meet mrs scaly's relatives, and partly to relax by a seaside cottage gazing across the bay at the mountains, and enjoying a large variety of waders' calls at low tide 
Bought a national and a local paper, various reports of violent protests and riots around Ireland, mobs outside hotels housing asylum-seekers, and in Dundalk, a former convent now being used to house Ukrainian refugees FFS. There was also a counter-protest a this one, 'Dundalk Welcomes Refugees' seen on more than one placard. Could the loathsome Fox have gone over to Ireland to stir the shit?
My partner's relatives found it all quite shaming, saying "these bigoted people aren't from round here, they've been bussed in from Dublin" and "Ireland's well-known history of emigration makes this kind of nonsense doubly shameful".
Apparently, so they told me, these protests have only sprung up in the past couple of years and - so one of mrs scaly's cousins said - it's been fired up by the lack of affordable housing.
Would any of Irish Urbs on here agree / disagree with this ?

Ireland - newcomers and the far right
Oughterard residents are concerned over a former hotel that may be turned into a direct provision centre. It's a small town and the oppositions to the place are a mix of nimbyism, worries about the impact it will have on the town and outright bigotry. TD Noel Grealish has come out calling...

It's true that the housing crisis has seen a lot of discontent and anger turned towards newcomers lately but there's always been fringe haters, going back to the 80s and more organised types like Áine ni Chonaill of Immigration Control Platform in the 90s.
Hot Press often covered racism back in the day and there's a book from 2002 by Ronit Lentin and Robbie McVeigh - Racism and Anti-Racism in Ireland that's worth a read for a bit of background.
