‘Absolutely bananas’: Stephen Fry attacked by ‘woke mob’ over Christmas message

Spiked Online chief political reporter Brendan O’Neill reacts to the “woke mob” going “absolutely bananas” over Stephen Fry’s Christmas message where he condemned anti-Semitism. The actor and broadcaster called out the surge in anti-Semitism in the United Kingdom in his heartfelt Christmas message. “What is my message this Christmas? Simple truth that we are all brothers and sisters. It’s naive, but it’s as good a message as any other,” Fry said. Mr O’Neill condemned people who took offence to the actor’s message and slammed Fry on social media. “They called him a narcissist, they said he’s a genocide apologist in reference to Israel’s war with Hamas,” Mr O’Neill told Sky News host James Macpherson. “They really went for the jugular with Stephen Fry and these are the kind of people who pose as anti-racist, who think everything is racist.”
