• The popular actor and political activist, 42, shared the photo on Twitter on Friday
• He wore a badge which read 'I am exempt from wearing a face covering'
• Also appeared to joke by saying, 'After a long period of consultation with myself'
• Packs of two of the lanyard-style 'badges' are available on Amazon for £11
• Masks must be worn on public transport and in shops and supermarkets
• Some people don't have to wear one if they have a valid exemption

A pack of two of the 'badges' similar to the one Mr Fox showed off is on sale
on Amazon for £11.

Rules on face masks include that they must be worn on public transport and
in shops and supermarkets.

Some people don't have to wear one if they have a valid exemption, such as
it causing them severe distress or because of a physical or mental illness,
impairment or disability – and they do not have to carry proof.

Fine don’t wear a mask, have the courage of your convictions but pretending to have a mental health issue to avoid a fine is low

He's clearly exploiting.

But it makes you wonder can any idiot say they're exempt to avoid wearing a mask ? .

Agreed.

Wait until we get a twitter post from an NHS bed from him.....bet he will be happy to wear the oxygen mask.

Yes, they can. Not sure idiot is the correct way to describe them, cunning would be a more apt word.

[Marsh.]

Wow, a grown ass man with children. Embarrassing.

A coward too, if you don't want to wear a mask, simply don't wear one.

[Amy Jade]

He's a disgrace. People who can wear face masks and decide not to selfishly are scum.

Could have just got a sunflower lanyard for 50p from the hidden disabilities site

Being a **** isn't considered a medical exemption.

[Jordan.]

Why did you add "popular" into the first bullet point doesn't seem this childish antic went down well with anyone.

...I read that at some point, he had thanked those who criticised him on social media because that’s the whole point of what puts the bucks in his bank account...very similar to the Katie Hopkin career path...this is from an article in the Guardian...

‘There is apparently money to be made by posh guys ventriloquising the so-called common man – whether they’re slagging off vegans, Muslim women or climate protesters. In the future, everyone will bait liberals for 15 minutes. Fox is now in with the Spiked crew of provocateurs. Alt-left? Alt-right? Alt-dreary. There is a long line of these types, some cleverer than others: Rod Liddle, Richard Littlejohn and Jeremy Clarkson, with Toby Young, James Delingpole and Martin Daubney on the subs’ bench. They present as dissenting voices, speaking truth to the elite. In reality, they just preach to people their age. To call this circle jerk of intolerance a culture war is to ennoble it. Not everyone can reach the ugly heights of Jordan Peterson.

What people are saying when they say racism doesn’t exist is that it doesn’t exist for them. Their own identities are weirdly defined by a form of victimhood they profess to hate. So envious are they of oppressed people that they try to claim that they are too, in the name of free speech.’


...he’s completely irresponsible and completely reckless in how he’s posted about his purchased ‘exemption’ badge...if he was in any way a genuine person with genuine beliefs...then surely he would talk about anxiety issues and mask wearing etc...rather than ...ha, ha, ha, look how clever I am...while his non mask wearing could cause loss of life to someone as a worst scenario...I can’t see any other reason to have posted what he did other than another promotion of his bank account with no thought to any health risk...
