TV STAR Laurence Fox has stepped out for the first time since\u00a0he was suspended for his vile on-air rant about a female journalist.<\/p>\n

The embattled Covid conspiracy theorist was spotted at a London protest days after claiming no "self-respecting man" would "climb into bed" with journalist Ava Evans.<\/p>\n


\n
\n<\/p>\n

The former actor, who was axed from his presenting role on Thursday, joined protesters near Honor Oak Pub in south east London on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Photographs show Fox wielding a microphone as he was flanked by police officers at the event.<\/p>\n

Protests at the pub frequently erupt into violent clashes between demonstrators and the trans community. <\/p>\n

It comes days after the former actor sparked outrage during a live interview with GB News host Dan Wootton. <\/p>\n

The live discussion about PoliticsJOE reporter Evans was sparked by her views on why the UK shouldn't create a 'minister for men' to tackle a mental health crisis.<\/p>\n

In a BBC Politics Live episode on Monday, Evans said the issue impacted all people and such a role would \u00a0"make an enemy out of women".<\/p>\n

This prompted Fox to bite back during his GB News segment which resulted in a vicious, personal takedown of Evans.<\/p>\n

"We're past the watershed so I can say this\u2026 show me a single, self-respecting man that would like to climb into bed with that woman\u2026 ever\u2026 ever," he said.<\/p>\n

"They're pathetic and embarrassing. Who'd want to s**g that?"<\/p>\n

Evans later said the segment made her feel \u201cphysically sick\u201d.<\/p>\n

She said on a JOE podcast this week: "I just think it speaks to a wider power dynamic that is sort of falling away now but definitely used to be there in the last few years."<\/p>\n

Hours after his comments were broadcast, GB News formally suspended Fox from appearing on the channel.<\/p>\n

A statement read: "GB News has formally suspended Laurence Fox while we continue our investigation into comments he made on the channel last night.<\/p>\n

"Mr Fox's suspension is effective immediately and he has been taken off air.<\/p>\n

"We will be apologising formally to Ms Evans today."<\/p>\n

Piers Morgan also slammed Fox's comments, saying: "Ava is a very talented journalist and delightful person.<\/p>\n

"Fox is a disgusting piece of misogynist trash."<\/p>\n

Wootton was also later suspended along with a third presenter Reverend Calvin Robinson.<\/p>\n

On Friday morning,\u00a0GB News boss Angelos Frangopoulos\u00a0apologised to Ms Evans for the comments, stating they "should not have gone to air".<\/p>\n

Ofcom\u00a0said it would launch an investigation after an onslaught of complaints.<\/p>\n
