    Weird that Huw was definitely guilty by 'trial by media' but poor old Russ is a victim :huh:

    There is an old proverb ...
    "you can tell a man by the company he keeps".

    Is it true.

    Russell Brand has now been defended by Elon Musk, Andrew Tate, Tucker Carlson, Tommy Robinson, Lawrence Fox, Katie Hopkins, Jordan Peterson & Michael Barrymore.

    Beverley Turner, who else? Most are damning of him

    Let's not forget that Brand was one of Labour's poster celebrities under Ed Miliband

    Yes, so 2 out of about 120 presenters and journalists. They've embarrassed themselves.

    Yes, agreed, and Laurence Fox. Their support is based on their opposition to cancel culture (except Turner who is tunnel visioned on her hatred of Covid measures and lockdown which she apparently shares with Brand).

    No one is calling for Brand to be cancelled. He needs to be postponed though, pending investigation into these serious allegations.

    Can add Dazza Grimes and Sophie Corcoran to the list but they aren’t so much presenters as paid to copy and paste tweets.

    Geldof is no fan of Brand.



    But then most of the people who hated Brand for his politics before they discovered they could call him a rapist seem to hate Geldof, too.

    Was it because Brand called him Sir Bobby Gandalf?

    Brand dated Peaches I believe. Probably not the sort of bloke you want hanging around your drug-addicted daughter with their family history.

    That's because he introduced Peaches Geldof to that twat Fielding when she was 16, who then shagged her for a while.
