Just breaking on Sky News that Brand has been charged with a number of rapes and sexual offences. Good.
I hope his victims are feeling vindicated and supported.

Donald won't be happy.

PandoraSox · 04/04/2025 14:15

Good. I wonder if there are other victims who will now feel able to come forward?

Maitri108 · 04/04/2025 14:17

✊Congratulations to those brave women and for all those holding him to account.

I am only repeating what is on the news. I am not speculating on the case.

Amazed it’s taken so long. Bet the scroat thought he’d got away with it with the Jesus act.

"“Now listen, dear interlocutors of the infinite internet ether, before the Twitterati commence their collective fulmination, allow me to elucidate this most labyrinthine of misunderstandings with my customary cocktail of linguistic gymnastics and metaphysical musing. I have, it appears, been once again ensnared in the baroque bureaucratic balderdash of institutional intrigue – a veritable Kafkaesque carnival wherein my every utterance is dissected with the forensic zeal of a Victorian mesmerist examining the ectoplasm of moral panic.

Let it be known, amidst this cacophony of cancel culture and the inquisitorial eye of public opinion, that I remain as innocent as a freshly lactated vegan oat milk latte, steeped in the froth of social consciousness and sprinkled with the cinnamon of misunderstood intention.

So I shall, like Prometheus unshackled from the rock of recrimination, continue my peregrinations through the podcastosphere, disseminating truths and transcendence, whilst being pursued by metaphorical eagles hungry not for my liver, but for likes, retweets, and moral superiority. Namaste and carry on.”"

He's been charged - it's not a current court case.

Why can't he just say

"Oh bollocks"?!

SirChenjins · 04/04/2025 14:24

Excellent news.

Because he thinks he is better and smarter than us... especially us women.

Colette · 04/04/2025 14:26

Best news in ages !

Lentilweaver · 04/04/2025 14:27

Finally. Hope he is sent away.

FvhgvgghhNC · 04/04/2025 14:29

About time.

Lonelycrab · 04/04/2025 14:29

A welcome bit of good news

Sdpbody · 04/04/2025 14:30

About time!!

I always think of the women who were not in the position to come forward.

How many has he hurt over the years and they have had their lives ruined.

I hope he is sentenced well.

He's been charged - it's not a current court case.

proceedings become active for contempt of court purposes when someone is charged.
thats certainly the case in Scotland (where I have a little bit of knowledge about this area) and I would imagine would also be the case in England as well
otherwise you could have people making prejudicial comments right up to court proceedings commencing

ihaterunning · 04/04/2025 14:30

Russell Brand, eh? Who’d have thought it?
