Any country that doesn't presuppose it's average person is a credulous numbskull is either very ahead of its time or needs a particularly caustic word with its self

Ha, yes indeed. Poor Looza is more ridiculous than Donny Tourette.

Donny was actually quite funny and self aware / self deprecating on that episode. I rewatched it a couple of years ago and was disgusted by the treatment he received.

Some people, such as Jurgen Klopp or Kate Moss, look hot while smoking. Lawrence Fox is not one of them.

I don't think anyone will beat Lauren Bacall in that regard.



But then it isn't the 40's any more.

Quote from: jobotic on May 19, 2022, 01:28:45 PMDidn't they accuse him of being racist (which he is, genuinely or for grift)? He then accused them of being paedophiles.

BUT his argument is that their accusation was ridiculous, so he made an obviously equally ridiculous one back to illustrate that. He wasn't reeeaaallly calling them pedos on the loose.
Calling him a racist is at least defensible as honest opinion (like when Kezia Dugdale called Stuart Campbell a homophobe, happy days). But it's a bit harder to argue that calling someone a paedophile is fair comment ("But guv doesn't his girlfriend look underage?").

From what I can see, the 'libel-proof plaintiff doctrine' relates to the person who has been libelled already having such a shit reputation that it doesn't matter what you say about them - you can't sully their reputation any more.

So I don't know if there's a name for the defence for what, for instance, Alex Jones or Lawrence Fox or David Icke might say, if the idea is that nobody's really supposed to take him seriously so no harm has actually been caused. But if there is one, it's called something other than the 'libel-proof plaintiff doctrine'.

Kankurette

People call him racist because he says racist things. Bit different from fucking children.

He won't be paying it will he? And we won't know who is.

QuoteSo, I got to ask Laurence Fox in person  today who's funding his defamation defence.

He didn't answer, asked me what colour knickers I was wearing, then didn't answer some more.

What's he so afraid of people knowing?

Grim.

Admittedly, I am quite open about fancying the pants off Ash Sarkar but fucking hell.

jobotic

What a fucking cunt (who smells of shit).


Why is he being funded? I mean I know why but he's so fucking shit at everything he does.

Cold Meat Platter

Can't reveal my source for their safety but I know pretty much for sure who is funding this guy.

Spoiler alert

Koch Brothers, or someone similar. And can Fox just not be disgusting to a woman for once?

Sorry to bump the old thread and post about this fucker but today he has been threatening to libel Mukhtar for calling him a racist earlier today.  Mukhtar called his bluff, but Lozza was adamant that he is going to take him to court.  He's been embarrassing Fox all day and then Fox has just lost his rag and called someone else a racist.

It's been very funny.

Quote from: somersetchris on May 19, 2022, 08:21:14 PMYes doesn't Tucker Carlson (and Alex Jones) hide behind this? Apparently no reasonable person would believe what Tucker Carlson says therefore he is immune to libel claims, despite broadcasting on a channel which literally has 'News' as part of the name.

yeah but Fox went to court over their right to lie to their viewers - and won.

TrenterPercenter

Just a lefty on Twitter which is why Fox thought he could bully him with threats, but he picked the wrong person to intimidate and got absolutely ripped apart.

I heard he once abseiled into court...
