<\/p>\n

Laurence Fox has said he stands \u2018by every word of what I said\u2019 after he made a series of derogatory comments on GB News about journalist Ava Evans<\/strong>, including asking \u2018Who would want to shag that?\u2019<\/p>\n

The GB News commentator, 45, refused to apologise for remarks that he made during Tuesday\u2019s episode of Dan Wootton\u00a0Tonight. The broadcaster has formally suspended him for the tirade.<\/p>\n

In a lengthy post on social media, he wrote: \u2018First of all, don\u2019t take a pop at @danwootton for something I said. That\u2019s not fair.<\/p>\n

\u2018Secondly. I stand by every word of what I said. If a woman wants to go on television and belittle male suicide, she is totally within her rights to do so and not apologise, just as I am totally within my rights to say that I wouldn\u2019t want to shag a hyper offended 4th wave feminist and not apologise, just as people are totally within their rights to be offended by my stating I would run a mile in the opposite direction from women like her, should our paths cross in a bar.<\/p>\n

\u2018It\u2019s called free speech.<\/p>\n

\u2018I realise that the new woke world is low on laughter and high on offence, but it\u2019s still worth trying to find the lighter moments in this joyless new cancel culture which has been created for us.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2018This lady has said on air that she wants men to be \u201cfrightened\u201d and \u201cterrified.\u201d Tumbleweed from the media at her premeditation and malevolence. Because it\u2019s not a man saying it. Which rather proves my point.<\/p>\n

\u2018You are totally entitled to find my mockery of the insane hypocrisy in this world not to your taste, but that\u2019s me, and I will continue to be me, as a wise man once said \u201cBe yourself. Everyone else is taken\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u2018So you keep trying to cancel away in your state of permanent offence, I\u2019ve been cancelled already and may well be again, but I don\u2019t care one bit, and I will keep defending my right to have an opinion on issues which concern me.<\/p>\n

\u2018Without free speech and the presumption of innocence, we are not free. We aren\u2019t quite communist Eastern Europe yet. We may very close, but not quite there. It\u2019s still worth fighting for.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2018So if you are expecting a grovelling apology, I suggest you don\u2019t hold your breath. I won\u2019t ever apologise to the mob.<\/p>\n

\u2018Have a lovely day.<\/p>\n

\u2018In this self-censoring world, speak your mind.<\/p>\n

\u2018Live strong and free.\u2019<\/p>\n

The post finished with a fist emoji.<\/p>\n

The 45-year-old\u2019s non-apology comes after he made a series of derogatory comments\u00a0about political correspondent Evans, which left her feeling \u2018physically sick\u2019.<\/p>\n

In the interview aired on Tuesday night, Fox said: \u2018Show me a single self-respecting man that would like to climb into bed with that woman ever, ever, who wasn\u2019t an incel.<\/p>\n

\u2018We need powerful, strong amazing women who make great points for themselves. We don\u2019t need this sort of\u00a0feminist\u00a04.0. They\u2019re pathetic and embarrassing. Who\u2019d want to shag that?\u2019<\/p>\n

Evans, who works for online news website Joe, saw the segment, shared it on X and wrote: \u2018Laurence Fox just did a whole speech on GB News on why men apparently won\u2019t shag me?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018I feel physically sick,\u2019 she added.<\/p>\n
