Kevin Space Invader

Those are credible reasons for why someone would not remember it, but his statement would simply then by summed up as, "I don't remember doing it, but it sounds like something I would do" which is pretty damning in itself and lends credence to the accuser.

The statement I saw didn't say that. Do you have a source for the statement you saw?

So with Spacey implying it's something he would do in one hand, and the accusation in the other Spacey's statement is what lends me to believe his guilt. He indicts himself in the way no mere accusation can.

I would have to suspend my disbelief to believe his statement though, people just don't make statements like that apologising when they have any doubt they might be guilty.

Yes they do, for the reasons I explained in the post you read. I'll quote it here for convenience:

"If he's innocent then his choices were extremely limited because he's presumed guilty as that's now the custom.

1) Say that the incident never happened. Since he's presumed guilty, he'd then be villified even more for victim-blaming, harassment, trivialising sexual assault, re-victimising the victim, etc, etc.
2) Say what he said: that he has no memory of the incident but that he apologises anyway for any offence caused."

False memory is a matter entirely unrelated to Spacey's credibility however.

No it isn't because it provides a plausible explanation for a scenario in which one person remembers something happening and another person doesn't. That's very relevant to this situation.
 
Did anyone see the nonce finder general Tom Watson pontificating on sexual harassment in the Commons yesterday? Who the hell was the bint in the short skirt and fishnets with her boobs hanging out of a low cut top filmed just behind him, adding some more Beny Hill `esque comedy to the show? :)

Seriously, buy a magazine and spend some time by yourself, get it out of your system.

Neither would help because he's presumed guilty, but the second option is arguably less bad.

What could he have done that would not have raised your suspicions?

Remain silent, flat out deny it and more importantly not deflect the issue by "choosing to lead a gay life from now on". If I was accused and didn't do it, I wouldn't be saying I was drunk, don't remember and I am so sorry etc.

Did you see it? I was quite amusing. Maybe she's looking for some harassment...*

* No I am not suggesting it is ok to sexually assault a woman because of how she's dressed. But really, is this the norm for Westminster these days?

Looks quite well dressed to me. Certainly nothing to raise eyebrows over.

My wife often wears dresses, fishnets and boots to work, shes a lawyer. I dont mind. :)

So you think this is the correct image for the UK Parliament to project to the world, some bint looking like a two bit hooker portrayed by TV camera to the world stage whilst the Commons debates harassment? The floosie should never have been allowed in the chamber dressed like that, it's madness, but given Bercows wife's penchant for skirt round the arse, legs akimbo, ex nightclub alcohol glazed eyes photo opportunities for tabloid hacks it's hardly surprising standards have fallen so far.

What the hell are you talking about? I can literally see a thigh covered with tights and a bit of cleavage.

You are the very definition of a misogynist calling a woman a "bint" "hooker" and "floosie" based on a small clip of a tiny part of her body - You don't even know anything about her.

I have seen these dress sense rebelling young women solicitors, (and some male ones who look more like college lecturers), a trend of the last few years, I am not sure it does any favours to the image of the legal profession ;) But as I would never contemplate employing a female advocate I suppose I am being disingenuous again ;)

She couldn't look or act more professionally.

Your views are outdated by 20 to 30 years, its not a trend. :)
 
A single accusation against Spacey and the internet explodes - multiple and many against the President (Trump) and it's all swept under the carpet......

Amazing what you can do as the "most powerful man in the world"
 
Those aren't fishnets. She's not inappropriately dressed, not since the 1850s anyway. I'm more concerned with whether she can do her job than what she wears doing it. Clothes-wise it troubles me far more that BoJo can't tie a tie without it coming down to his knees.
 
Well, whatever they are she hasn't got the legs for them or the breeding to know where and when to display her overly ample assets :) Johnson deliberately utilises his image of unkempt and bumbling, I am sure it's carefully cultivated, but he too needs to smarten up, a good Sergeant Major could lick him into submission and shape (at least dress wise) in a few weeks :) As an aside the one thing that struck me about the attention Spain and Catalonia has received is 90% of those seen protesting or on camera generally look well groomed, well dressed and well mannered. Like the Italians they are a stylish nation.

Anyway, who is the woman behind Watson, and what's her job?
