Asking a rape victim why she didnt take a taxi.

Knob!

He's a tXXt.

I can't stand the man.

Once saw him launch an offensive verbal attack on a surrogate mother, never watched him since, prejudiced little so and so - even stirred me to complain to ITV, no answer of course!

Oh no, looks like I will have to revise my high opinion of him after he and his 4 brothers trounced Holly Willoghby's family on celebrity Family Fortunes.

i don't really get into attacking famous people online - unless it's this arsehole

he really is a fuckwitt of the highest order and have No Idea wtf Ruth sees in him

twat he is

He is such a tit.

That poor girl :(

i want to smack him for her,

he is a class a knob,

grhhh he gives me the rage!

He is an arse. But trouncing holly willoughby and family ? Am sure holly has many good qualities but being quick witted isn't one of them (also am sure it was her who years ago cheated with a mates boyfriend who subsequently dumped mate)

Once again...he gaffs in the most spectacular way!
How many lives can one pillock TV presenter have?
Are ITV going to do the right thing and get rid of him this time...I doubt it

Can't we just shoot him.

I feel so sorry for her. Not only has she been victim blamed, but it's happened live on TV. :( Why did he feel the right to ask that?

Misogynistic arsewipe.

I'm wondering what helpful "advice" he has for John Warbuoy's victims...

I just read what he said and it's just mind-bogglingly awful.

Always been over-rated imo - a legend in his own mind!!

Bet he's a bloody nightmare to be married to.

He's spectacularly thick. And also entirely square - all four sides exactly equal.

Can't we just shoot him.

I'm fairly sure we can't.

This is just the latest fuckwittery to spew forth from his ample gob. He'd barely finished apologising for using disablist language.

I really know nothing about him. Possibly he meant it in a kindly 'it tears me up to know that some women go through this, please keep yourself safe as much as possible' sort of way rather than a 'what did you expect, silly girl' sort of way.

Holmes, 51, introduced the interview, saying: 'She was on her way home from a night out with her friends and walking home - didn't take a taxi.

'It's that old thing, I always say. Why were you tempted to walk home?'

Miss Cant explained she had been with a friend and had walked the last two streets alone to her home as she had done many times before.

She said: 'I thought it would be OK.'

Holmes said: 'But it wasn't.

Well, I think the taxi issue is irrelevant to the fact that she was raped, but I don't see it as blaming her for what happened.

He really is a knob...

There was a piece the other day on thyroid...he constantly interrupted dr steel while he was explaining the condition. At one point the doctor said 'can I finish explaining the symptoms'

Even that didn't shut him up

He's a twat.

The end.

Agrees with thingumy.

Ok. Fair enough. Twat.

Unfortunately, psammead, taxis (reputable or not) can be just as dangerous.

Women are more likely to be raped by someone they know than a stranger.

And rapes by taxi drivers are not unheard of.

Would his advice to John Warbuoy's victims have been "you should have walked home"?

Good point, Dragon.

I don't know who John Warbouys is. I take it a cabbie who raped his passengers?

Yes, Here's the report from his trial It's not easy reading by any means.

At the end of the interview, after thanking her for appearing, Holmes said: 'I hope you take taxis now. Everywhere you go, coming home at night.

John Warbouys is the black cab driver who raped dozens of women in London. The police handled in appalingly and didn't believe the first women who reported him, so he was left free to carry on raping.
