Summary

Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Laurence Fox, actor and political activist, about being cancelled after his appearance on Question Time, why he started the Reclaim party to run against London mayor Sadiq Khan, and why the fall of the labour red wall might be a sign that identity politics is on the decline. First Laurence discusses what it’s like to be a victim of cancel culture and how he fought back. Laurence also describes the current decline of London and why people can’t even criticize knife crime without being called a racist. He also discusses how the Labour party is more focused on white guilt than the white working class. Laurence also gives his perspective on the Meghan Markle Oprah interview.
