Russell Brand.

This is a hornets nest isn't it.

I'm bowing out apart from to say some of these comments are "going to age like a pint of milk left on the rear shelf of a fiesta parked in the sun for 8 hours".

 

[builder22]

that's quite specific!

Regardless of the outcome Brand has been cancelled all it takes is a few "accusations" and that's it game over.

Look at those who have been accused and acquitted their careers are never the same again.

When you make your living by presenting yourself to the general public as a controversial provocative activist type you are probably going to attract some scrutiny.

I don't know whether Brand is guilty of these very serious allegations, but all I can say is what he did to Andrew Sachs and his granddaughter makes him a nasty piece of work in my book (along with spreading dangerous antivaxx conspiracy theories).

Not these days, I mostly stay inside and play video games.

It doesn't look like he's been cancelled yet. Surely most of his income now comes from Rumble, and I could only see him being suspended there if he actually faces criminal charges.

Whether he'll get the odd part in a Hollywood film like Death on the Nile remains to be seen, but then he'd pretty much given up acting anyway.

FWIW, I agree. I think the Brand defender's milk will smell a lot worse, if you get my meaning.

The mob need a circus and he's the sacrifice.

Easy to forget he's a comedian, considering how unfunny and annoying he is.

But in all likelihood, his tour will get cancelled and YouTube will give him the boot. Rumble might hold out though, they're nowhere near as bad as YouTube.

 

[Ayahuasca]

For false rape

Come again?

Also, he'll be making next to nothing if not nothing from YouTube now anyway as pretty much all of his videos will be demonetised.

 

[Hagar]

Well the police are finally involved and his shows cancelled. I expect we will hear more. There is a saying, those who live by the sword,...

Met Police refers to 2003 allegation, a different year from those so far reported

The new Met Police statement appears to refer to a fresh allegation, not previously reported.

The allegations reported by Channel 4, the Times and the Sunday Times against Russell Brand were based on accounts from several women relating to incidents that were said to have taken place between 2006 and 2013.

The new police statement refers to an alleged sexual assault in 2003.

The Met statement does not identify the accused person, but says the report was made directly to them following the Sunday Times report and Channel 4 documentary about Russell Brand.

“On Sunday, 17 September, the Met received a report of a sexual assault which was alleged to have taken place in Soho in central London in 2003. Officers are in contact with the woman and will be providing her with support.

“We first spoke with The Sunday Times on Saturday, 16 September and have since made further approaches to The Sunday Times and Channel 4 to ensure that anyone who believes they have been the victim of a sexual offence is aware of how to report this to the police.

“We continue to encourage anyone who believes they may have been a victim of a sexual offence, no matter how long ago it was, to contact us.”

You can always keep watching and cancel the cancellers.

 

[bazzastan]

another showing of shutting people out with a voice. mobs

 

[StriderX]

The mob needs their distraction from the morons they elect that have ****** everything up, so yes up the mob.

How do you go about providing evidence for something that happened literally 20 years ago?

 

[Hedge]

You see Roar sees what he wants to see. She smiled so she is bang up for it! Remember this is a guy who said that victims of rape and sexual assault are asking for it when they put themselves in the company of the perpetrator. That or they are lying about the assault or just want a payout.

Do you think your reaction to things is swayed a little by your own personal vendettas? I see your posts in SC and your passionate dislike for the likes of Trump, Tucker Carson, Elon Musk, roar etc.

Would you say that you would treat accusations against people equally until you see evidence or would you say you assume guilt in some people based on nothing but your own personal opinion of them.

I see you are very active in this thread. But let's see how you commented on schofield behaviour.

You only made a couple of posts in there but they had this kind of tone..



"Hmm sounds like the crisis management team aren't doing **** if everything is all over social media.

If there is one thing I've learned its that what you read on social media rarely bears any resemblance to the truth. Not saying he hasn't done everything that is claimed but I wouldn't be taking social media posts as evidence of anything."



" Where have I defended him? I only posted originally because it appeared to be a pile on when it seems to be pure speculation atm. The young guy hasn't said anything yet to my knowledge and its him that will be able to tell if he indeed was groomed or there was any kind of relationship while he was a minor or any relationship full stop.

Then there was some homophobic tropes being thrown in so I replied to them.

I couldn't give a damn about Schofield, I've never watched any of his shows, all I've ever seen are a couple of funny moments on social media when they are working with an Italian chef on their show. If he is guilty of grooming this kid then **** him. It does seem clear he has abused his position and so deserves to lose his job. However some poster are treating him like he's the same as the men who groomed and abused young girls in cities like Bradford. I've not seen any evidence of that yet."


Surely there's a bit of double standards here?
