Don’t really like him very much but this whole “trial by media” thing is getting out of hand. Character assassination channel 4 programme this evening, 4 anonymous women claiming he did bad things to them decades ago, no complaints made to the police. It stinks. I hope he sues Ch 4 and the Sunday times.

Personally speaking, I can't stand the guy.

I used to moor close to that person's £4 million riverside house. I idly decided to watch one of his youtube videos and he was presenting as an anti-capitalist ! What a fucking hypocrite. 4 million subscribers on youtube a perfect house by the Thames and you're an anti capitalist? Silly celebrity. Anti capitalists live in sheds not palaces. On the other side is a riverside garden. Anti capitalist ho ho ho. Just another tinpot Thames TV celebrity. There are lots of them.

Very unpleasant ... an enlightening piece in the news this morning suggested the accusers felt "safe to speak out after being approached by reporters".
Where's the due process in this ... has more akin with the stocks.

I should add (and I'm sure most would feel the same) I would support victim's of assault being encouraged and supported in making their complaint and having the evidence tested in court.
If Brand is an abuser I would hope to see him prosecuted and convicted and victims supported.
But this is pretty appalling EVEN if he is proved to be guilty (and how could that be fairly done now).

Its all a bit ugly.
Tempting to think this has been arranged by someone with PR knowledge.
Interesting to see what happens here.

Rog At one point, an alleged victim stated she was abused, but then a few mins later stated she jumped into bed with him after the event. The police would probably write off that particular accuser. If a court were to find wrong doing, fair enough, lock him up, but if he were to be found not guilty the accusers and the programme producer should be locked up. This is Kevin Spacey all over again.

I don't like him, therefore he should go to prison.

In the modern age of internet and trial by facebook one could find interesting situations occurring.
For example you could get someone who knows they are going to get problems deliberately putting it out there that they may have committed offences. This could have the effect of undermining any future trial.
The Brand geyser used the words "like ashes in my mouth" to describe the pain of being a celebrity.
If this is the case I don't understand why you would carry on. Get the first million pounds then retire to a life of simple obscurity.
Why pursue a life of fame if you claim not to like it?
Maybe its like drugs.
I don't like the bloke at all and I have encountered him close up but I still would not wish bad things on him.
If he's a cunt and has done bad shit then thats got to be sorted out but it is entirely plausible its just another #metoo thing.
The bloke is a dick everyone knows this but is he a victim or a perpetrator is the obvious question.

Watched the prog. Yeah, nothing to see here. Move along.
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
There absolutely will be more on this. I expect quite a few more will make themselves known. If the sex attack clinic that the girl who unequivocally says she was raped attended also preserved the physical evidence he is already fucked. So to speak. Russell appears to have already as good as admitted it via text.
Just have to wait for further inevitable allegations and court appearance.
For those of you uninterested in watching the C4 prog, here's a brief summary.
C4: Four women say you abused and raped them.
RUSSELL: Well I used to shag a lot. But I told you about it.
C4: One of them was a schoolgirl.
RUSSELL: It's a MSM plot to smear me because I'm successful and they don't like me. I is innocent I tells ye.
C4: They?
RUSSELL: I'm too close to the truth.
THE ELITES: Only now, at the end, do you understand...

Maybe buying one of the nicest riverside houses in Bucks when you are a chav pleb uppity tosser with a mockney accent annoyed the wrong people. Should have stay in down Hampstead heath way.
The bloke is a celeb twat. They do anything for publicity. Anything.

Of course! It's all a publicity stunt. Funny how you always see through these things.

I bet it is though.
The days of Nax Clifford and Jimmy Savile are over.
What we are looking at now is the mastery of facebook. They know their shit.
He'll be fine. Terrible cunt but nothing bad happens just keep taking the money.
I suppose mental health wise it could be a bit nasty. Maybe sailing around the world could work.

To be sure, even if he ends up in the nick he'll still be rich, and he'll still get comedy club bookings when he gets out, and there's always the legions of adoring fans on yootube. Not really a problem.
