Laurence Fox Speaks Out After Court Loss: "I Prejudiced My Own Case" | Julia Hartley-Brewer

- In an exclusive interview with Julia Hartley-Brewer on TalkTV, Laurence Fox tells viewers he prejudiced his own case by saying he thought "it's absolutely fine for someone to hold an opinion that somebody is racist."
Laurence Fox has said he hopes to appeal after losing a High Court libel battle with two people he referred to as paedophiles on social media.
The actor-turned-politician was sued by former Stonewall trustee Simon Blake and drag artist Crystal over a row on Twitter, now known as X, in October 2020.
Mr Fox called Mr Blake and the former RuPaul’s Drag Race contestant, whose real name is Colin Seymour, “paedophiles” in an exchange about a decision by Sainsbury’s to mark Black History Month.
The Reclaim Party founder - who said at the time that he would boycott the supermarket - counter-sued the pair and broadcaster Nicola Thorp over tweets accusing him of racism.
In a judgment on Monday, Mrs Justice Collins Rice ruled in favour of Mr Blake and Mr Seymour, dismissing Mr Fox’s counter-claims.
She said: “Mr Fox’s labelling of Mr Blake and Mr Seymour as paedophiles was, on the evidence, probabilities and facts of this case, seriously harmful, defamatory and baseless.
“The law affords few defences to defamation of this sort.
“Mr Fox did not attempt to show these allegations were true, and he was not able to bring himself on the facts within the terms of any other defence recognised in law.”
However, Mrs Justice Collins Rice did not make a ruling on whether describing Mr Fox as “a racist” is “substantially true”, after finding the three tweets in his counter-claim were unlikely to cause serious harm to his reputation.

I've just watched a video of an interview with a mother whose son was attacked, stabbed, and left for dead by nine teenagers. They posted the attack on social media. Their sentence was a £50 fine and an apology letter. Hurty words between adults in this case is worth millions, but a vicious attack on a childs life is worth £50. That just doesn't seem right to me.
I can guess the demographics of both
That's because it is wrong to a normal sane person but obviously not in the contorted machinations of the judiciary
Maybe because it's very, very, very, hideously, egregiously wrong, and totally destructive for a civilised society? Just a guess.
It all depends. Was the victim a White male ?
@@MistralisArracant Or this solipsistic form of "progressivism".
If a judge or the law cannot define what a racist is then how can anyone be prosecuted for being a racist ?
The case was about a defamation claim not racism.
The judge was in fear of defining the word racist.
@@sambaines2Doesn't matter. If this judge says there is no legal definition then all previous convictions of racism need to be declared unsafe.
@muppetboy absolutely agree.
@sambaines I believe Laurence submitted a counter-claim because those three called him a racist first. He responded by calling them pdf files. He wasn’t serious - obviously - but was trying to point out that using inappropriate slurs is a bad thing.
The ‘racist’ slur has cost Laurence his acting career.
The word 'judge' is becoming a synonym for 'politician'.
They are all WOKE
unelected one at that
The word Judge, is just a status symbol to bandy about in upper class society, it has nothing to do with upholding the Law what so ever these days
Then they've been brainwashed, such lame individuals. They're like little spoiled children to me.
@@Adrian-jk4kx Far from it. Don't be a cry baby.

Round of applause from all us Brits!..... keep up the good work Mr Fox
Not all of us. Some of us think he's a plank.
But that's just it...he behaves like he's speaking for all of us, when he's clearly not.
Go and look at other news pages. The comments sections show lots of people don't agree with him.
Just what work is he doing good about. He is terrible.
Yeah, it definitely isn’t from all us Brits. You can’t speak for the country as a whole.
Which planet are you living on. I suspect you think he should still be on that rubbish TV news programme!
I got 4 negative replies... but 431 thumbs up.....ha ha ha unlucky!
Stay strong Laurence. Many of us "commoners", who are the majority and pay massive taxes, are definitely on your side.
Wrong and deluded 😊
That's what makes me so angry. We pay all these public high earners their massive salaries. For what? If the judge (!) can't define a simple word. If all justice system doesn't make any sense, doesn't help us what do we need it for?
👍👍👍👍
I’m definitely on his side.
If Lawrence was sent to prison we would see the real Lawrence - scared of his own shadow
This judgement was total BS! My brother lost his franchise company three years ago because he had seen a Facepoop post with idiots destroying statues and throwing them into the harbour. He commented that he thought they were savages. A so-called journalist picked it up and accused him, on the front page of the local paper, of being a racist, so the company called him in, said he had brought the company into disrepute and forced him out!
These people are despicable!
They certainly were, obviously the Franchise company are in favour of the destruction of our landmarks. Doesn't say much for them. Your Brother had standards and respect. I hope he is doing well!
@@savinggrace70 Thank you. He picked himself up and started his own operation to take business away from them. It has been a struggle, but he has started to make some money again.
Should've chosen his words more carefully. Part of being a business owner means understand the wider market. He did bring the company into disrepute - even if he was justified in doing so.
I have no words. So sorry to hear this.
A very strange story. What paper was this?

Standing by while people lose their livelihoods is something this country is very good at, and their lack of empathy never fails to astound me.
I stand by you Laurence. It’s fantastic that you are exposing a corrupt system.
Calling names is not some noble deed or high endeavour. No 'corrupt system' has been exposed here, just a depraved mind. This fool is an unpleasant former actor. Big deal.

@@helengunter378 for 3 or 4 million? good luck with that
A judge embarrassing the judicial system again. Stay strong Lawrence.
'stay strong' lol he's a multi-millionaire posh boy, he'll be fine. get better heroes
Would I be correct that you are clueless about the law of defamation and section 1 of the Defamation Act 2013 in particular? Also would I be correct that you are also clueless that Fox failed monumentally failed to discharge the burden of proof that he was caused serious harm??
I suggest you familiarise yourself with the law and read the judgment before posting nonsensical comments.
@@andrewtregoning Hear! Hear!
Sorry, Laurance, I think the way you have been treated is despicable. Everyone should have a right to free speech
Hes not happy though when people have their say about him
yea so crazy that a guy who's shaped his whole life around trying to be offensive inflammatory would suffer consequences of it. It's so unacceptable that society tries to hold a standard where people just behave decently towards each other.
Nobody has the right to use free speech to slander or libel someone via lies though. That’s why we have laws against them.
@michaelc3051 that law has been taken advantage of, and it goes one way you only have to look at the riots in London and the slogan from the Jordan to sea, it means annihilation of the jewish people in Isreal yet nothing is done to stop this, and this meaning is explained and has came from the mouths of the muslim and the far left supporters. Yet the autistic girl of 16, who said a police woman looked liked her lesbian nanny was dragged from her house screaming and begging them not to take her was arrested by 6 police officers, and if you misgender a trans person you can get arrested. There was a saying when I was young: "Sticks and stones may break my bones and names will never harm me," and believe me, I know the truth of this saying
Yes, outrageous. You can't say offensive or racist things these days without someone calling you racist. Bloody liberty.
Stay strong Lawrence…. You are so loved by many …. I do hope thing get sorted in your favour…chin up ❤️

Laurence Fox, in those crazy days, you are the voice of reason, and in your dying county, reason and logic is a crime.

Laurence is white, male, over 30 and a proud Brit. Guilty as charged for whatever.
You are loved and respected much more than you know, Laurence.
👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯💯💯so true
If a Judge cant define the term Racist, how can anyone be charged with being racist. Will this be counted a case law ?.
I’d urge you to read up on the facts of this case. You seem to have completely misunderstood
It certainlt looks that way
He wasn't but it was established by the court that calling Fox racist did nothing to diminish his abysmally low reputation and so no harm was caused.
All rightminded, rational people realise Laurence Fox is correct. These judges, as we all know, live in an alternative universe.

Laurence's main fault is that he believes people are more intelligent than they actually are.

Sorry to disagree, but I think Larry is one RWNJ we could do without; he's just there to do his master's bidding.
Well done Sir! It seems crazy that Parliament are passing laws, Judges interpreting laws and police forces enforcing laws that they cannot even define
That's how it's ALWAYS been. Don't pretend otherwise. Also hate speech is a literal crime which is managed to use IN COURT too.
@@lewisjnewmanify The moments gone, nobody believes that anymore
I respect Laurence Fox, for having the courage to stand by his principles and speak out when so many are guilty of cowardice.
Unless normal people stand up instead of cowering in a corner or simply not bother to speak up this will happen to all of us
What do you mean 'normal'. I'm white, working class British. I'd describe myself as 'normal' too. Yet I also think Fox is an absolute fool who is pretty much wrong about everything.
So how do you define 'normal'? Are you saying the only way to be 'normal' is to agree with people like you and Fox?
For me, 'normal' is believing the judicial system is probably more robust than the views of an actor who has got into a world he doesn't understand.

What a sorry excuse for a judge

It's a war on logic and reality.

👍👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯💯💯💯❤
Lawrence's heart is bang in the right place.
He's not from a background that equips one to dodge the pitfalls of the law and legal system so he will have a rough time.
Our legal system isn't fair - it's fundamentally discriminatory towards whites, men and Christians. It is this way because those groups are considered to be the majority and the Courts and Police have long since abandoned the notion of 'without favour' for 'we have to keep the mob in check and can't hold minorities to the same standards of law'.
Basically the law has two tracks now. Total betrayal of the British people and our way of life.
👍👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
You are deluded.
the 'Judge' has, no doubt, received her orders not to define that term. Will be interesting to see if she is offered a step-up soon...
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

@@Petal4822 UK judges have a guide book of Terminology and in that book, racist is automatically proven without evidence for all white people.

In my experience (a Dad who spent 15 years in English Family Courts trying to get Child Arrangement Orders made and enforced) a similar judicial interpretation as discussed here re racism, also exists in respect of fatherhood. A Dad is not in practice an equal parent and is systematically discriminated against because of how judges interpret words and concepts. A Dad is not in practice given equal rights just as it seems white people are not given equal rights under racism laws and the very definition of the word itself. Mum can ignore Child Arrangement Orders with effectively zero punishment and harm done by mum in alienating the child from Dad and Dad's family is barely considered in favour of imagined harm to the child of having Dad care for them equally etc. If Dad ignores court orders he (and the child) are punished with a lack of contact or standing.
Very sad …and wrong
My experience has been the opposite in family court and I am the mother
The term racist is loosing its effectiveness from being thrown about willy nilly.
The term means absolutely nothing now to me .
There’s only one o in losing.
In a court of law, trendy words should not be considered of a different definition
@@BlookbugIVso pleased you pointed that out! Its the one word that drives me crazy people can't get right! 😂 Totally changes the context!
Well done Mr Fox totally agree with you. This county has gone bonkers woke.

If you've suffered no harm and are not racist, then it's going to be great seeing you back in the film industry 👍Any one who refuses you work or management should be done for discrimination. I would apply for as many auditions as possible and keep the results. Film them too.
He was never in the film industry 😂
Discrimination on what grounds? No film or TV series has any sort of duty or obligation to hire him.
Nah. Even if you agree with him, no sensible company will take him on. He's too mouthy and puts them at risk of a damaged image.
If he was really interested in acting again he'd keep away from spouting, just go to work and read his lines.
I seem to recall he was kicked out of school at some point. Maybe he's aleays had a self destructive streak?
He's from a comfortable background. He was a decent and respected actor. Some people would have given their left arm to have some of his good fortune and celebrity. He decided to piss it all down the drain by getting involved in politcal stuff.
He made that choice. No point bleating now he can't get work.
agreed
@@danjames4086Woke lefty’s on the other hand …😂
once something can’t be said, you are already living in a tyranny
??There is plenty that cant be said, and for very good reason. It has nothing to do with tyranny. Someone could go around your workplace saying the most dreadful things about you, trying to get you sacked or beat up or hated by others. There is a law to discourage it. It is called libel law....You can not say what ever you want. It has nothing to do with tyranny.

Much love to Lawrence.
Definition of a racist, Somebody who wins an arguement with a Guardian reader
Very good 👍
If the judge thinks Mr Fox's reputation was'nt hurt by being called a rascist then she obviously thinks he is one. Maybe she needs to look at her own prejudice.
Whilst I agree with your sentiment it appears Mr Fox’s problem was that he wasn’t able to prove to the court he’d suffered loss of income / reputation whereas the other side did.
A lot of people called old Corbyn a racist but Julia piled in on that instead of defending him. Funny that.
Bang on mate.
Mr Fox, please don't emigrate, we need you.
Another misused term is Islamaphobia or homophobia ...a phobia is the fear of somthing..not hatred.
It's all words to shut us up
I agree Islamaphobia & homophobia are not genuine fears, they are bigotry pure & simple.
@@Robert-ux5yk Do you suffer from Logophobia?
'A phobia is an overwhelming and debilitating fear of an object, place, situation, feeling or animal. Phobias are more pronounced than fears. They develop when a person has an exaggerated or unrealistic sense of danger about a situation or object. If a phobia becomes very severe, a person may organise their life around avoiding the thing that's causing them anxiety. A phobia is a type of anxiety disorder. You may not experience any symptoms until you come into contact with the source of your phobia.
But in some cases, even thinking about the source of a phobia can make a person feel anxious or panicky. This is known as anticipatory anxiety.' - NHS Overview/Phobias
And antisemitism? Right?
History demands then for me to be Islamophobic.
Bravo Lawrence. The reason this toxic "progressive" culture has become so dominant is because the vast majority have tried to accomodate it and not make waves, thinking if they don't stick their necks out and not get involved it will pass them by and go away. Lawrence is taking a hit for the rest of us. We need more people to stick their size nines in and make a fuss. Making a few slightly contentious remarks on the radio, being careful not to ruffle any feathers isnt working. We need big characters like Lawrence to make the headlines to raise awareness so that Julia and others with a mainstream channel can talk about and demonstrate the madness and injustice that is going on for all those who really have had enough and getting close to bursting point and need a voice beyond the youtube bubble.
But Julia, you say Laurence could have worded it better, but it was ok for Thorp to say, categorically, he was a racist. The double standards of the left and institutions are worrying and their automatic acceptance that anyone they perceive is from a minority is a good person irrespective of their actions is not going to end well.
Its not left wing to say someone is a racist, why would you think that?
You clearly do not know about the law of defamation or the relevant facts of the case. There were no double standards.
Fox failed to discharge a burden of proof that he suffered serious harm. Due to that failure the statements about him are deemed (in accordance with the Defamation Act 2013) to be *not defamatory.*
In contrast, 2 of the people Fox accused of being a P.... were able to show that such had caused serious harm to their reputations.
Your mum must be very proud@@robbomax1143
Someone once wrote that a "thought crime" was a totalitarian control mechanism
@@robbomax1143 the argument about double standards is interesting, especially in the context of the current lawfare against trump in the US in which trumped up charges are being pushed by activist judges and prosecutors to disbar a politician from standing. In this case, it is clear that the Fox case represents the use of the legal system as lawfare to attack political enemies on trumped up grounds. There are many other instances showing the corruption and politicisation of the justice system. Defending this makes you a disgrace on many grounds, though I very much doubt you care.
Laurance Fox should look at legal action against the judge for not doing her job competently.

I feel sorry for him it's not right
Let's face it, "putting your foot in it" has been part of conversation forever - it is the 'new' victimhood that sets it apart these days. We are getting into a US style of over-litigatiing in this Country. So when will we see the banning of all swearing? Language has a purpose after all.
I agree with you one one thing. He's totally il-equipped to deal with the law.
But maybe that's why he's in this mess? He's probably ill equipped to talk about lots of things, but he talks anyway.
Imagine that in any other walk of life? You get asked about something you don't understand. A smart person says, 'I don't understand that, so I won't comment'. Fox just starts talking. He's put his foot in it about race, gender, women, politics. Surely he can't be an expert in all of these?
Of course he's entitled to his personal opinion...just as much as Alan down the pub. But Alan down the pub doesn't have celebrity status, so can probably spout any old rubbish without anyone really caring.
I don't agree with anything Fox says, but I appreciate others do. So in that respect, he's like any other person. But...they haven't had their face on millions of televisions. His celebrity status has pulled the rug from under his own feet. If he was a 'nobody,' like most of us, he wouldn't be in this mess.
But...he seems to want it both ways. An opinion of his own, but at the same time a large platform from which to voice this, in itself supported by acting and TV. I'm not sure these are compatible.
Look at julia playing it safe 😅
As a Dutchman I see simular behaviour of the courtsystem in other countries. In the Netherlands as well.

I think racism is a very overused word and as such it has lost it’s impact.However that does not mean because people abuse it the actual meaning is in any way diminished. The judge should not assume that She knows how Lawrence has been affected .Of course he has and seriously.
Words and Actions have consequences.
So does the removal of them or the weaponising of them the way woke does. @@theworldaccordingto4555
Now who's making an assumption? It was up to him to prove he had suffered harm; he failed to do so.

Get a grip and learn about the topic before posting nonsense. This was a civil case (not a criminal matter).
If anybody involved in this case could have ended up in prison then it would have been Fox, for his vile claims about others.
Definitely agree with you Lawrence.
The further society drifts from the truth the more they will hate those that speak it .
It’s a disconcerting fact that the people of this country can no longer trust any of our Institutions. Not the Government or Parliaments, not the Civil Service, not the Police, not the BBC or MSM, not the Armed Forces, not the Border Force, not the C of E hierarchy, not the education system, not our Local Councils, not even the National Trust or the RNLI, and I’m afraid Laurence, certainly not the judiciary.
Laurence Fox is brave, he doesn’t sit down & do nothing. He’s trying to get thing’s right & back into order! We need someone with common decency & sense & brains!

You are clearly guilty . Of being the wrong colour , sex and politics.
Well done Lawrence . Keep going . Yes if you say anything these days we are racist .
It is the go-to word, but used so often as to lose its meaning completely, even a judge cannot define it.
Laurence you are absolutely right.
Well done, Lawrence, 🎉for speaking up
I felt like I was listening in on a mother and son conversation. Respect and warmth on both sides, well done to you both.
couple of years ago I was involved in a driving incident over a right of way (I was right!! 😂) which lead to a verbal confrontation. Long story short the lady, halfway thru the incident, started to say that she couldn't believe I'd said that. I had no idea what she was referring to, so was not expecting what happened next. she declared she'd rung the police - to which I replied "what do you expect them to do over a right of way dispute?". I drove off, picked up my wife (who had walked the last part of the journey as no progress could be made) and drove back towards home.
I should have seen it coming. the lady rang the police, stated I'd racially abused her, and I was arrested.
the video recording caught everything APART from that bit. The witnesses saw everything apart from that bit. Of course no charges were brought, but she managed to destroy my day and show her children what a fantastic weapon a false claim of racism can be.
the fact that the audio and video recordings, and the witnesses saw nothing , and that my wife and kids are mixed race, counted for nought. she got away with it. and I have no doubt her kids will do the same.
Laurence, if you ever need a bit of peace and quiet, you can come and stay at my house.
If voting for Brexit made me a Racist, so be it. I’m in very good company!
Actually, since leaving the EU, there are other things which have appeared, which not liking very much, would probably place me even higher on a list of a person with racist views. Again, I’m part of a fast growing number of similarly minded people.
Meanwhile, the country is going to the dogs……
I know next to nothing about the law, but what I am taking from this judgment is, that if you are character-assassinated enough, then you cannot be further slandered, by definition, no matter what you are accused of.
