The former presenter hits out at the way the BBC sacked him, describing it as "a masterclass of pompous faux-gravity".
Danny Baker has admitted his tweet depicting the duke and duchess of Sussex's son as a monkey was "ridiculous, stupid and idiotic", but has insisted he is not racist.
The radio presenter has been sacked after posting a black and white photo showing a well-dressed man and woman holding hands with a suited chimpanzee.
Baker captioned it: "Royal baby leaves hospital."
He later apologised, writing: "Sorry my gag pic of the little fella in the posh outfit has whipped some up. Never occurred to me because, well, mind not diseased," he wrote.
It was Baker himself who announced via his Twitter account the decision by the BBC.
"Just got fired from @bbc5live. For the record - it was red sauce. Always," he said referring to a segment on his show.
