Laurence Fox, the Harrow-educated member of a respected acting dynasty, has spent months broadcasting via several media outlets about his disgust at being “cancelled”, and he now – apparently – plans to amplify his complaints further by launching a political party.
The news was broken by The Telegraph’s Christopher Hope.

Fox boosted the news with this bit of hyperbole.
Some people imagined what it might be called.

Is it going to be called BellendsRUs? https://t.co/xR2OfJzBXC

very astute of Laurence Fox to see a gap in British politics for a new right wing party just inbetween Ukip and the David Icke 5G Lizard Appeciation Club

"What did you do in the Culture Wars, grandad?"
"Absolutely nothing, lad."
"Why not?"
"Because it was a bunch of bullshit invented by entitled reactionaries whining about being victims whenever their privilege was challenged, like Laurence Fox."
“Who?"
"Exactly."

The party polticial broadcast will just be 5 minutes of Ricky Gervais saying he identifies as a helicopter whilst Laurence quietly sobs in the background listening to Honey To The Bee by Billie Piper https://t.co/vxqkTyKnxP

Funny tweeter @twlldun thought of an upside.
I think this is good, actually. Think of all those lost deposits going to the Treasury. Call it “Idiot Tax”. https://t.co/Yo1vQf8iiC

And Dr. Mike Galsworthy had another.
This is fantastic news. The Lozza Party can join the new UKIP spin-out Heritage Party just launched and the Brexit Party all chipping away at Conservative Party support from the crazy flank, but with no MPs. I raise a glass to this. https://t.co/ZFyVsA0GLM

We’re just looking forward to the launch.
Can’t wait for their manifesto launch in a Spider-Man suit from half way up Big Ben. https://t.co/2ZRD01drE3
