Laurence Fox has issued a half apology his sexist rant aimed at a female journalist during an interview with Dan Wootton on the channel.

However, he said he still expects to be fired from GB News after his on-air tirade.

In a 15 minute long video posted on his account on Twitter/X, he said: “What I did say, was ‘I wouldn’t sh*g that’ and all that sort of stuff, which is not right and it’s demeaaning to her, to Ava [Evans] so I’m sorry.”

However, he also said he maintained the sentiment of his comments and that he still was angry about what he said was Ms Evans “demeaning” male suicide.
