    Laurence Fox: “Trans women are biological men”

    Laurence Fox, who recently called numerous LGBT+ people paedophiles on Twitter has waded into another LGBT+ issue; whether transgender people are biologically men or women.

    Seemingly for no reason, (as he was originally calling on people to resist the government’s lockdown policies) actor turned politician Laurence Fox waded into a debate on whether trans women are women after being asked by one user of Twitter, “Do you agree that trans women are women?”.

    He answered the question in the negative, saying, that he believed that trans women are biological men. “They are not biological women and never will be”.

    The question came from a Twitter user Perky Warbeck.

    He also called on the BBC to be defunded after the corporation used its platform to educate children on the importance of gender identity and pronoun usage.

    ‘The world is against trans people’

    Celebrity Big Brother star and journalist India Willoughby responded to Fox’s tweet, saying “I’m a woman. I’m biological. I didn’t choose this. I’ve had to walk through fire to put things right. Merely existing is tough. We have nothing. The whole world is against us.

    “Anyone offering a pat on the head or conditional acceptance after what I’ve been through can jog on.

    “Lost count of how many non-trans people insist that can’t possibly be so. Based on what? Their own life experience? Born in the wrong body is definitely a thing. Wires get crossed. It’s frustrating and disorientating. Nothing fun or titillating about it.

    “Trans people literally can’t win. If you’re a kid they campaign to deny treatments to “protect” you. But become an adult and have the treatment anyway, and the same “protectors” will attack.”

    Drag Queen Crystal is also suing Laurence Fox after paedophile claim

    Laurence Fox is now facing two defamation lawsuits after RuPaul Drag Race UK star Crystal confirmed that she had also engaged a lawyer to sue the actor turned politician.

    Taking to social media, Crystal wrote: “In response to my criticism on Sunday, Mr Fox seriously defamed me, and I have instructed Mark Lewis of Patron Law to sue on my behalf”.

    She added, “An accusation of paedophilia is one of the oldest homophobic tropes and it was very shocking to have that levelled at me, not just by Mr Fox, but also his many followers who believed him.

    “I may have had to endure homophobic bullying as a child, but I will not tolerate it as an adult”.

    Mark Lewis is also representing Simon Blake, the deputy chair of Stonewall.

    “Language is powerful”

    In a defense of his words, Fox wrote on Twitter, “Language is powerful. To accuse someone of racism without any evidence whatsoever to back up that accusation is a deep slander. It carries the same stigma and reputation destroying harm as accusing someone of paedophilia. Here endeth the lesson”.

    He also added, “If the game nowadays is to throw baseless insults and accusations about, then we should all be free to participate.

    “Having said that, I have deleted the tweets posted yesterday, in response to being repeatedly, continuously and falsely smeared as a racist, as they just serve as a distraction to the important work that needs to be done”.
