Laurence Fox ordered to pay £180,000 over 'paedophile' slur.
Colin Seymour, also known as drag artist Crystal, said he felt "vindicated" after the right-wing actor-turned-activist Laurence Fox was ordered to pay £90, 000 in damages for calling him a "paedophile" on X.
He said he hoped his victory "emboldened" other people to take action against those who defamed them on social media platforms.
Fox was also ordered to pay former Stonewall trustee Simon Blake £90,000 for calling him a paedophile as well.
