    Things seem to be better now than a few years back, certainly not worse.

    If you say so. What do I know?

    It probably seems to be better as the whole background has shifted towards normalising being a nasty small minded racist. So rather than a small number of high profile racist thugs like tommy two-names, we instead have a large backdrop of many hundreds of racists across twitter, facebook, BBC, GBeebies, Daily Mail and whatever other media you look at.

    It certainly seems like that looking at it from over here. Rather than being immersed in it 24/7.

    Which begs the question why has “stop the boats” apparently spectacularly failed to inspire voters to back the Tories?

    And why are there apparently no more EDL marches, if we are all racists now?

    ****’s being bankrolled but being a whiny gobshite racist troll can’t be half as profitable or fun as being a free-agent actor from an acting dynasty. Oh well.

    Fox hasn’t lost any of that money. Jeremy Hoskin has. He’s the money behind the Reclaim Party and is funding Fox’s nonsense and has already given him a million (in 2021) and continues to pay for it all.

    Whatever the state of the size of or the influence of the far right, it certainly pays well – which if we’re being honest, is what Fox is doing it for. That and he’s an attention seeking parasite, obvs.

    The man seems to be a narcissistic, racist tw*t. Best ignored on every media platform. The more people engage with him, the more his ego is fed – much like the 3year court case.

    Well. I genuinely don’t wish this one anyone, especially children but it’s not entirely unexpected I suppose.

    Yes, I’ve been through and it’s not pleasant at all, it almost destroyed me in fact. Twitter wasn’t around back then but I’m not sure id have thought this post was a good idea even of it had have been.

    That might need translation – lost custody of child?

    ^^ Sorry, I don’t assume to know the full facts of course but it seems Piper has a new guy on the scene and the child involved here might need/ want medication Fox doesn’t approve of. That’s the “poison” reference Fox makes. I’m not sure it’s entirely over custody as such, more about “he’s *my* kid and will only ever do what*I* want.” That’s a shit position for the kid to be in whichever parent is taking that tone.

    Mind you, it’s mostly irrelevant, sort of anyway. The fact Fox decides to post this on X is basically the last thing a genuinely worried parent would do imo, no matter what you thought of the situation. More so when you know that every tweet you make will be dissected to the atom even if related to a trivial matter, which this obviously is not. I can’t think there is a family lawyer in the land that would have said it was a great idea to vent on X.

    The only real person to suffer here is the kid, high profile parents breaking up must be bad enough but to have a play by play on twitter…

    I’d say you could take that a step back and say having Fox as your father would be generally a pretty terrible state of affairs through making some very difficult decisions for you and having incredibly challenging relationships with everyone and everything in your world (other parent, your school, any medics, your friends’ parents, your neighbours).

    Come out of that unscathed and you’d be doing well.

    Apparantly he’s been court, ordered to stop mentioning his son’s ADHD diagnosis & his disbelief in it.

    He was accompanied by his girlfriend, Liz Barker. Liz believes the moon landings were faked, and has previously stated she doesn’t buy the whole theory of human evolution from apes. (“No. I think we come from another race.”)

    Well, they seem to be a perfect match for each other. One can only imagine the conversations over the breakfast table. 🙄

    I posted ☝🏼before reading about the issues with Billie and their kid. I sincerely hope she gets a restraining order against him, and a no-contact order as well.

    A couple of sentences in that last twitter screen grab,

    Oh, I really hope that’s the outcome of **** around and finding out. 🤣

    Laurence Fox ordered to pay £90,000 to two people he called ‘paedophiles’

    TBF.

    I reckon the copper is probably quite happy dealing with a pathetic incel attention seeker who couldn’t punch his way out of a wet paper bag. And wouldn’t dare try. All he has to do is avoid feeding the troll

    Much rather that than confronting a knife-wielding crackhead.

    I’m amused that Mrs Justice Collins Rice said  in her judgement that Fox possessed “an unfastidiousness about objective factuality”.

    Or some of the other “patriots” solemnly celebrating St Georges day round whitehall. I liked the way he was more concerned about the other idiot waving around a flag than fox.

    Perhaps he should have just stuck to the lawsuit against them for calling him racist rather than insulting them back.

    Ok he lost that as well but it would have been a bit less expensive learning experience for him.

    That video of the little posh boy cosplaying at being a football hooligan is priceless 😂

    If he ever found himself within half a mile of a proper ruck he’d be curled up in a ball, crying like a baby

    Credit to Lawrence Fox though, he has done a rare thing. He has been the subject of STW threads where everyone is in agreement. He should be proud of that.

    Supposedly Jeremy Hosking funnels a decent amount of cash to his “party” and I think the problem is once you have gone down that rabbit hole how do you get out and back into a sensible job especially if you have been making a decent living from it?

    I guess Fox could apply for a job playing trump as an idiot and claim the last few years was method acting preparation.

    In retrospect that is even more fitting – panto standards for a panto dame/villain.

    Obviously he’s cosplaying being an English football hooligan but he’d exit stage left at the sight of a real ruck (see comment above).

    But even that is fitting – as most English hooligans also do a runner when the proper continental ultras turn up (or the Carabinieri). And those who stay usually get a pasting – mainly because they are too chubby to leg it. 🤣

    Yes, he’s sold himself to the devil that’s for sure.

    Most people would never have made such a bargain though and I think that’s pretty telling.

    As you say, he’s pretty much burnt all his bridges now. Only recent acting thing he’s been is playing Hunter Biden for the MAGA lot in the US.

    It gives me no pleasure to say this, genuinely, but I can’t help think he will be a news headline one day for intentional/ accidental drug overdose or similar.

    Fox hasn’t lost any of that money. Jeremy Hoskin has.

    This is very true.  Hosking should be explaining why he’s spent so much cash on promoting a sad, shrivelled she’s-turned-the-weans-against-me example of a useful idiot.

    I think the problem is once you have gone down that rabbit hole how do you get out and back into a sensible job especially if you have been making a decent living from it?

    Bread and circuses, only with less bread.  It didn’t take long for the Tory gobshites to start parroting the lines as they became normalised.

    There will be another idiot shouting stuff who’ll be sponsored to be morally repugnant in a minute.

    Looks very much to me that the Police were told not to react to dickheadery and make anyone a martyr, because if you shoot your mouth off at a copper like that you’d normally get a warning and then arrested for breach of the peace

    Perfect, wry understatement! I’m making a note of that for future reference! 🤣

    I read something by Billie recently, and it’s very clear that Fox is making life very difficult for her and the kids.

    I’d like to hope Fox moves to America and ends up bleating and whining on channels like Truth Social which have little relevance outside of the Republican echo chamber.
    Or else shut up in a small room sat on the dildo of consequence with a ball-gag in his gob, on a permanent drip-feed.
