Russell Brand.

Don’t know if these accusations are true or not, but there seems to be plenty on social media who are insistent there’s nothing to them - as far as I can seen, this judgement is being made solely on political grounds in most cases.

I thought I saw testimony from women who have stated what he did to them. He will say it was all consensual.
Not sure that is a defence - especially if one of the women was 16.
Russell Brand is the same person that had sex with the grand daughter of Andrew Sachs - and then did or tried to phone him up to tell him - class act.

Either way - people who like him will still go to his shows (if anyone will book him) and people who dont approve of his actions wont go to his shows.

Sounds like he's going to be a bit busy over the next few months.

There will be plenty who believe Brand is the victim of a ‘hatchet job’ because of his views but the person pedalling that view more than anyone is Brand himself.

Re: Russell Brand.

Well he may or not be a nice person but is he guilty of serious sexual assault ?

He hasn't even been arrested yet

Neither was Jimmy Savile.

But that's captain hindsight again

IF brand is guilty of sexual assaults then where were all these friends of these victims , the BBC , Channel 4 and have the police been informed

The Dispatches film making team reached out to lots of those who worked with Brand

If they knew what he was up to why has only one talked about these allegations publicly ?

If he's a serial sex offender he's the guilty man but there's a lot of people who have gone missing in action

Exactly the same as with Savile then.

Bob Geldof’s not a fan anyway.

Re: Russell Brand.

I watched the Disptaches on Channel 4 and I' m not sure either way. He does not come off well at all in it.

All of the accusers hid their identity, and on every case he was already in a sexual relationship with them, but they've taken 10 years to make the allegations through the media, nothing has been raised to the police. While I agree its wrong, the 16 year admits it was legal (consensual sex at 16), but claims that in hindsight that she feels the law shouldn't allow it.

They draw on a lot of content from his stand up shows and book entries to corroborate the claims. He has always been open about his sexual attitude and behaviour, and he was voted shagger of the year 3 years on the bounce. 1000's of women were contacted by the media to dig up dirt, and there's videos online of ex partners saying they were contacted by The Times and Channel 4 but their accounts were not used as it didn't fit the narrative. There's a lack of a dissenting voice.

But he was clearly a narcissistic sex addict. They claimed he was bedding 5 girls a day on a working, women from the audience or staff. Things were different 15 years ago. Questions have to be put to the industry, who appeared to allow his behaviour.

There's the conspiracy theorists claiming he was too close to 'the truth', he has been talking openly about things like how taxpayers funded the vaccines, but big pharma have taken all the profits, creating dozens of billionaires. The timing of this does make you wonder, when the reporting against Prince Andrew, Epstein, even Huw Edwards and Schofield, is/was so much softer.

We'll see if police investigate, some of the claims are really serious, which makes it all the more odd they have not reported it to the police first.

Was the reporting against Epstein and Andrew softer? They took a right pasting in the press, and rightly so, because they are disgusting vermin.

As for Huw Edwards, what he is meant to have got up to is nothing compared to what the other 3 have been accused of. He got an absolute hammering for a few naughty pics.

Yes there's a circus around these brand allegations, but i'd hardly say he's copping it worse than the other 3 you mentioned

Epstein was arrested (2nd time!!! in 2019) 4 years on his the client list still hasn't been officially revealed, I wonder why.
Clue, the flight logs of the Lolita Express would be a good place to start!!!.

It wasn't until after his arrest and conviction that Epstein got pelters. Prince Andrew gets a big fat pass.
