So much of a cunt that his own brother sued him.

Imagine being too toxic for Bridgen....

He disagrees with the “direction of the party”.

Well, understandable, I guess, since that direction is straight down the cludgie.

For quite some time now, it used to be the left that often fractured/splintered into many different parties (or at least campaign groups) based on hair-spitting differences in doctrine & dogma. If the last decade or so are anything to go by, it seems the right is starting to catch up with them.

Looks like he’s lost his deposit!

BBC News: Laurence Fox loses High Court libel case over social media row

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-68132377

Worth noting that whilst the court did not find that calling Fox a racist was true, they found that it wasn't damaging to Lawrence's good name or reputation.

It must smart for such a man of the people to be legally found to be the kind of piece of shit who isn't meaningfully affected by people saying he's a different or specific type of shit

If calling him a racist did not damage his reputation that means that his reputation was already completely shit and incapable of being damaged further.
In other words calling him a racist was news to no-one.

I see he's looking to go down the Tr*mp route of when trapped in a load of shite, keep digging deeper...

Base you career on edge-lording at the margins of decency.

That'll tarnish any reputation.

What a January we've had.

Mone/Barrowman, Trump and Fox - all down by law.

The judgement didn't say that.

Hopefully his next TV appearance will be on 'Call the Bailiffs'.

Just seem him described as 'thick as a submarine door'.

I like it.

If he thinks that he is in the nothing-to-lose territory, he is finally right about something. Twat.

“Actually, I won”.

Now, where have we heard that before ?

Part a shoeing of the Fox wit, part look at the murk behind the curtain.

Shortly after his fateful appearance on Question Time, Laurence boasted to the Sunday Times of having been the only person to have turned up for an appearance on QT “with guitars and shit”. Even now, I am unable to type that without laughing.

Everything he has done since that moment feels like a pose – a way for a middling supporting actor to get four-time-Oscar-winner attention.

I'd disagree, but only in that I think he is that vile and genuinely does believe his shit.

Laurence benefits from huge sums of money every year courtesy of Jeremy Hosking. Having been the third-biggest Brexit donor, Hosking is the mega-rich investor who funds Reclaim, and has given it millions, apparently indifferent to the fact he has barely a vote to show for it. Hosking’s Brexit crusade has pivoted to the culture wars and anti-net zero agenda. To give you a sense of just how deep his pockets are, the MP Andrew Bridgen was last year belatedly forced to declare that Hosking had stumped up £4,470,576.42 in interest-free loans to fund a doomed legal action against Bridgen’s brother for control of the family potato farm. Bridgen was relieved of the Tory whip for comparing the Covid vaccine to the Holocaust, then briefly joined Reclaim, but is now back as an independent. Hosking is still donating to his campaign to retain his seat.

Whatever is going on here, it seems pretty clear that Laurence Fox is just one of the idiot faces of it. Who is this backroom man, lavishly funding one dickhead’s extended breakdown as part of a campaign to buy his way to political and cultural influence, at the same time as bleating publicly about the state of our democracy? Why should Hosking prefer to lead from behind while his paid fool or fools create busywork or diversions? The last recorded accounts for the Reclaim party cover the period until November 2021.

Yes, we should be looking a lot closer at him.
