Don't forget Starmer's failure to prosecute him when "everybody knew about him".

Ha ha.

Like this from Gilly. Hope she's got time to teach him "embargo" as well.

That looks decidedly grim for him, just as the last decade has been for his victims. I have just read this piece with very little control over my jaw.

His career will be the least of his concerns. Hopefully.

Twitter is teaching me the new rule- women have to report sexual offences immediately to the Police, or else they're automatically lying. I don't know if this applied to victims of Jimmy Savile, mind.

We have a winner. These women were "horny", according to Clem.

And a nice sighting of "the real issues". Nobody has investigated PPE scandals, apparently. Mr Mike Gallagher must have inside info.

And Nick Brown isn't "absent", but otherwise Ian is spot on.

To be honest, for me he’s always been in the cunt cupboard. I was never interested in him when he was”acceptable”, and had forgotten all about him.

Huge, if true

Didn't the Sunday Times investigage PPE?

A presumption of innocence is wired into our legal system, but that doesn't equate to freedom form investigation.

Also Andrew Tate (With friends like .....).

You can add Tommy Robinson, Neil Oliver, Tucker Carlson and Laurence Fox to the list. We’ve yet to hear from Piers Corbyn and Andrew Bridgen.
I’ve heard from two unrelated sources working on TV shows with no axes to grind that Brand has not been practicing abstinence based recovery for past two decades.

The same police who weren't supposed to investigate things when Boris and pals were engaged in their number 10 piss-ups.

The brains trust think we have the attention spam of a mayfly.

And yes we all know you’re innocent until proved guilty in a court of law so ‘not looking for him’ is a good phrase.

A fair Tweet here giving Mr Brand the benefit of the doubt

"presumed innocent". That has been known to be a contentious issue round here...

Laurence Fox is posting some utter crap on X. In one post he claims to have dirt on lots of celebrities and he says that he will dish the dirt if any of these celebs get 'all high and mighty ' about Brand. Isn't this exactly how people like Brand get away with stuff for so long. When Brand was at his peak any actress or studio worker who made accusations about him would have seen their careers come to an abrupt end.

Fox also seems to be opposed to trial by media with people being accused of things with very little evidence. This is the same Laurence Fox who frequently labels people as paedophiles without having a shred of evidence to back up his claims.

Foxy is sitting on credible allegations of rape and sexual assault, is he? I see he’s a « only the police can investigate » guy too. But he’s not going to tell the Police, but might stick what he knows on social media, right?

Any contradiction here?

How did he manage to spend 9 years working on a police drama series without gaining a basic grasp about how the legal system works?

I think it's already there.

Perverting the course of justice?

Brand must be looking at his phone this evening and thinking, "not right now, lads."
