 Laurence Fox has been sacked from GB News after a 'disgraceful' rant about female journalist Ava Evans. The broadcaster had suspended the former actor, 45, over a string of remarks about the Joe political correspondent, known as Ava Santina on X, formerly Twitter, including asking 'Who would want to shag that?' On Wednesday, GB News confirmed that it had ended their employment relationship with Fox, and with Calvin Robinson – another broadcaster who had been suspended after supporting Fox. GB News wrote on Twitter, formerly known as X: 'Laurence Fox and Calvin Robinson were both suspended last week pending internal investigations that have now concluded. 'As of today, GB News has ended its employment relationship with Laurence Fox and Calvin Robinson. The internal investigation into Dan Wootton continues.' The decision came just hours after Fox was arrested, it was confirmed. In a statement sent to Metro.co.uk, the Met Police said: 'On Wednesday 4, October officers arrested a 45-year-old man on suspicion of conspiring to commit criminal damage to ULEZ cameras and encouraging or assisting offences to be committed. 'He was arrested in Stockwell and has been taken to a South London police station where he remains in custody.'

In it, five individuals who he alleges are officers can be seen in the background, as Fox gestures towards them and speaks to the camera. 'Coming after Lozza,' he began. Before a voice off camera said: 'Start now.' 'What? Look at how many coppers there are in my house. That ladies and gentlemen is the country that we live in.' He then takes a puff on a cigar, and puts his thumb up to the camera, as he is being filmed by someone else. The video has been shared o){kind=link}
