He’s not the only one, Vern.
Absolutely Uber. Absolutely

He is not the only one who has asked young people for "pictures" either


He is not the only one who has sent threatening emails/ text messages when threatened with being told about.

Those without sin can casts stones...
 
Oh and wasn't Boris supposed to hand over his phone to the Covid commission recently
Why has Nadine Dorries been refered to the parliamentary commission about comments made about her peerage


All seems to be missing from the headlines recently.
Surely a coincidence

Well spotted, Beth.
 
No he has had mental issues for years.

Edwards has previously spoken about his mental health, telling BBC Radio Cymru in 2019 that he was "mentally in the wrong place" when he was physically "unhealthy". He also revealed in a documentary in 2021 he had bouts of depression which have left him occasionally "bedridden" since 2002.

He’s playing the mental health card because he’s been caught out. Wouldn’t be the first one

so it is a mental health issue to have gay thoughts....oh dear that us a bold thought


And as said to Goldhawk...Huw Edwards appears to have had certified mental health issues going back near 20 years. I understand these are severe depression issues, that he has be hospitalised for.

No playing the card here
 
No I said it was an offence to illicit a photo from a 17 year old.

The young person in question appears to say he never asked / illicitly a photo.
So no offence in this case.

Eh ? I really confused now. Surely if he paid the 17 year old £35,000 for some dirty pics then that, by its nature, is meaning to illicit a photo from a 17 year old ?

i honestly don’t get our first statement and it seems somewhat strange to mention gay thoughts as no one has mentioned this before ? Please explain
 
Who said he paid a 17 year old money for pictures.
Not the Met police ...no further action taken
Not the 17 year old...he has denied it.

Oh yes ....the Sun says it must be true then....they were right about those 97 drunken scousers weren't they

Sorry it

Maybe his/her parents are saying it and they are worried about their child. Are you related in some way to Mr Edwards because you seem to be singing his innocence and reasons for his vile behaviour somewhat

So worried about it they waited 3 years to do something

Didn't answer 2 contacts from the BBC.
 
You can be cruel Goldie.

Edwards on his Wikipedia page has recounted his mental health issues.
No he is not playing a Basil.

According to the Met police he has not committed a crime.

His career is over.

His family are shocked and traumatised.

A young boy is also traumatised by what his estranged parents have done.

Did Edwards drive the young person to drugs...we will see but I doubt it.


Murdoch and the sun have sold loads of extra papers.
They have attacked the bbc. We will see how much they are damaged.


It is a horrible Sun induced incident.

I so hate Murdock and the rancid sun

Let's see how it plays out, Beth. Sounds like he was sane enough arrange to pay youngsters for indecent images. And other complaints have come in.
 
I've got your back Beth. It's all a huge distraction. The bloke hasn't committed a crime, he might be weird/perverted but the gutter press that is the Sun newspaper has made this mainstream news. It's all a load of ****e. Some BBC presenter had some naughty pics of a 17 year old lad and it's all over the news. Some rich Tory bitch steals millions of tax payers money in dodgy PPE deals and shes still living it large somewhere without a mention. It's all a ploy to look over there!

I mention Mone often Bob......still doesn’t make Edwards any less of a wrong ‘un
