Laurence Fox
(Picture: Getty Images)Having failed in his bid to become London mayor, a bored Laurence Fox has decided to spend his time tweeting absolute nonsense.
He has previously moaned about England players taking the knee, sang about his hatred of face masks and shouted at traffic lights.
And this time, the former actor has been roasted for posting a Venn diagram on the site which left people scratching their heads.

The diagram shows 12 dystopian novels overlapping and suggests that society as it stands represents an amalgamation of the worlds depicted in these books.
Books he chose included Lord of the Flies, 1984, Clockwork Orange and a Handmaid’s Tale, despite the fact that we are not even close to some of the themes these novels explore, like societal surveillance and... being stranded on a desert island.
And people said just that, as they rushed to inform him that he was being ridiculous.
Some people told him that he didn’t know how Venn diagrams worked and others thought he hadn’t read the books he had included.
Venn diagrams are fun https://t.co/I9s4VKUhbU pic.twitter.com/PB8BZDpX77

i mean very few of these books have any similarities at all (not that laurence would know likely having read a grand total of 0). they all have some sort of dystopian theme and that’s it. and to call the current state of the country dystopian is hilariously pathetic… https://t.co/MYf3JNOOdP

The man’s fully misunderstood Venn diagrams… and literature. But I’m not going to lie, the “You Are Here” section would make an absolute belter of a book. https://t.co/8sWSqIfwj3

Dear Mr and Mrs Fox,

Have you considered getting a refund from Harrow? Clearly the school failed in both English Lit and Maths. https://t.co/vasklBQ7RV
In general, people couldn’t believe Fox seriously thinks that we are living in a mash-up of 12 extreme dystopian situations.
If he does, then surely he’s a complete snowflake...
