It's difficult to comment without knowing the nature of the allegations but the video smacks of "they're out to get me" and like his PR has told that offence is the defence.

Russell Brand? Very much a 'yesterday's news' person. If this is it, what a fuss about nowt!

I'm not clicking on that individual's page, be it YouTube or anything else ... please could anyone give the gist of what he's on about?

The cost of living crisis was just a joke, prices are being reversed a few years, and the difference we've paid in the meantime will be paid to us in a lump sum.

(Please).

My sudden flash thought: video evidence of Prince Andrew doing something illegal....

It can't have been him as he was in da pizza hut at da time

DyslexicPoster · 15/09/2023 23:07

Not aliens then? Thank fuck for that!

Just the normal powerful dickhead abusing his power and being a dickhead then. As it ever was

ArtyStripedSocks · 15/09/2023 23:07

Weird how his name has disappeared from Twitter trending

ScrambledSmegs · 15/09/2023 23:08

Talk about an anti-climax.

Maybe we should be demanding more of our broadcasters if this is the biggest news story of the year 🧐.

It feels like Aldous Huxley's A brave new world, where the population is kept distracted from things that matter by entertainment.

Because everyone went to bed feeling disappointed 😆

TomatoSandwiches · 15/09/2023 23:09

Well.... this was disappointing.

Good night.

He was sent a letter and email from a news outlet, he says they say some whacky things including “very serious allegations” about his promiscuous behaviour that he says witnesses can refute, he says it was always consensual. Also he says the media is basically trying to control him and his free speech

His sets used to sometimes include how he liked to have “weird” or rough sex. Sounds like he will be hit with rape allegations

MsLavender · 15/09/2023 23:09

He's basically denying anything illegal and alluding to the fact it's a set/conspiracy etc

Can somebody summarise? Husband is snoozing next to me so I can't watch it!

Show quote history

He’s saying he has been made aware of allegations, some are minor, some are very serious. That he has always been honest about his past promiscuity, and it was always consensual. He then gibbers on about how evil forces are attacking him because he speaks the truth. Sounds very Trumpian.

Figures ... I thought he might have announced he was going to have a bath, and that really would be worth hearing!!

ArtyStripedSocks · 15/09/2023 23:09

And they'd better have 100% got this right that he's definitely committed heinous crimes rather than just being a bit of a creep, because these are peoples lives being destroyed.

ATerrorofLeftovers · 15/09/2023 23:10

Well that's a let down, I was hoping for a major political scandal that would bring down the government. Not 'male celeb behaves badly' 'shocker' for the eleventy billionth time.

I managed about 60 seconds before I had to turn it off as he was rambling but essentially that there are accusations being levelled against him that are serious and he denies them and that although he was promiscuous his relationships were consensual...... apparently.

ThingthatgoesFFSinthenight · 15/09/2023 22:59

Well we have had politicians lying and breaking the law. Serious corruption in government. National treasures being found out as acting in immoral and dubious ways, nurse killing babies, massive fires, floods, record topping and frightening signs of climate breakdown, ongoing beginning of WW3, China spying on us and insider in Government helping them, Tussian threatening to nuke us, secret Chinese police stations, schools built from crumbling concrete, … I could go on.

It’s really difficult to even contemplate what might be bigger news than any of those. It HAS to be imminent Alien invasion. It’s the only sensible conclusion.

Yet the consensus us it's Russell Brand, whoever he is.

I agree entirely with you.

It had better be aliens.

MsLavender · 15/09/2023 23:10

Everyone in comments section of video supporting him because obvs a set up etc but doubt Dispatches would release this unless they were very sure? I don't know.

Puzzledandpissedoff · 15/09/2023 23:11

Ah - many thanks to those who repiled Flowers

Still not sure how this would class as major news though ...
