Laurence Fox slams Romesh Ranganathan and, as ever, Fox was the one who ended up looking stupid.

It comes as London Mayor Sadiq Khan tweeted: “Tackling violence against women and girls in the capital is one of my biggest priorities as mayor.

“Last year, City Hall’s #HaveAWord campaign urged men and boys to challenge sexist behaviour and misogynistic attitudes. Now we’re giving them the word to say: #Maaate“

Tackling violence against women and girls in the capital is one of my biggest priorities as mayor.

He followed that tweeting: “If your friend’s language or behaviour was crossing a line, would you know how to step in? My new campaign, Say #Maaate to a Mate, is a single word to stop misogynistic language in its tracks. Get involved.”

It was picked up by comedian Romesh Ranganathan who made the point during his set. It was a serious point, mixed in with his usual brand of amazing humour.

Maaaaate, he literally is. This though was not, this was a piece of advice at the end of the show in support of women.

Lots of comedians make a serious point in their shows – I've seen it done by Greg Davies, Jason Manford & Lee Evans, to name but a few.

If you think there's calling out your mates for harrassing women is wrong, that says far more about you then it does Romesh Ranganathan. https://t.co/1SSbLdp7cM

Romesh is a hero for this. Taking a break from a set to get an important message out to the masses.
Some lads will need to hear this. Comedy clubs, sports clubs, pubs, that's exactly where this message should be heard. https://t.co/7akwVyPq3n

He also shared this under the same hashtag #Maaate writing: In the 1940’s, males faked their age to fight in WWII. In 2023, males pretend to be female to win sports.’
