Laurence Fox, the leader of the recently established Reclaim Party—whose name plays off the idea that culture has been captured by the politically hyper-correct and needs reclaiming—has announced he is running for mayor of London.
Calling the decision “slightly daunting, but needed,” Fox told the American Thought Leaders program in a March 4 interview that he’s running “to say it’s important that we have a full debate within society” on political correctness and freedom of speech, and to ensure that “one set of views is not silenced or cancelled in order to not offend other people.”
