January 2020. What is going on in our country? You’ve got a White Male and he gives his Opinion on telly and the guy is Lambasted on Twitter as a White Supremist, a Racist; I think there’s too many that simply don’t want the Indigenous Population of this country to Speak Out, because the Socialists and Liberals will lose control. Actor Laurence Fox said this morning that ‘woke’ people are ‘fundamentally racist’ and blasted the singer Lily Allen for telling him to stick to acting. Fox – who railed against identity politics on Thursday’s Question Time – told Julia Hartley-Brewer on Talk Radio that the country is tired of being told it’s racist. The host had asked him about Harry and Meghan’s decision to step down and what he thought of claims made by some of their supporters that the Duchess faced unfair scrutiny due to her skin colour. As he told her that he believed Britain is a tolerant nation, he said it was hurtful to tell people who initially welcomed Meghan that their subsequent criticism was racially motivated. ‘We’re tired of being told we’re racist by the people we pay for and support,’ he said on the show. Fox also discussed his recent spat with Lily Allen, who told him to ‘stick to acting mate’ after a Question Time appearance in which he accused an academic of racism for bringing up his skin colour. Allen – who was a vocal supporter of Jeremy Corbyn during last month’s general election – said on Instagram on Saturday that she was ‘sick to death’ of ‘luvvies’ like Fox who are guilty of ‘forcing their opinions on everybody else’. She added: ‘He’ll never have to deal with what normal people have to deal with in his gated community.’ She concluded the rant by saying that he should ‘stick to acting mate, instead of ranting about things you don’t know about’. Today Fox mocked her statement, saying that she had a ‘privileged’ upbringing herself and pointing out he doesn’t live in a gated community. He said sarcastically: ‘She’s had a pretty privileged upbringing but she speaks for the common man doesn’t she.’ The musician also slammed ‘woke’ culture, a term that originally was used to positively convey an alertness to oppression but is now also used derisively as a term for those who argue that white privilege stops people like Fox being able to see racism. Today, Fox said that it was the woke who are actually guilty of racism against the white people they accuse. ‘What they are accusing you of is what they are,’ he said. ‘They are everything they accuse you of. The wokist are fundamentally racist.’ He added: ‘Identity politics is extremely racist.’
