Comment on GB News suspends Wootton after Fox comments
Emperor@feddit.uk 1 year agoUnfortunately, I do know who he is as he, inexplicably, keeps getting shoved under our noses (who invited him.on Question Time needs sacking). He’s a privileged dimwit who has, hopefully, now wrecked any chance of him appearing on all but the most disreputable TV channels and, if GB News stick to their guns, perhaps not even there either.

I think I’ve heard the name before but I’ve never associated it to a particular person. What is he was he some politician at one point or something, why is he relevant?

He’s an actor of the Fox family dynasty of thespians. He was probably best known for marrying Billy Piper and his supporting role in the Morse spin-off Lewis. He spouted some “political correctness gone mad” nonsense, then leveraged the outrage to become a mouthpiece for the usual right wing Culture Wars talking checklist (race, gender, etc) as well as Covid and Brexit. It was enough for him to get into politics but he has lost his deposit every time he has stood.
