I jest, personally I don't think he was into the kids but was weird.....but I could be wrong. I tend to go with Macaulay Culkin opinion on it as he was a kid at the time and had no financial aspect to gain.

Still, no family should be sending their kids to a millionaire's mansion where they sleep in his bed......massive and obvious red flag.

I'd argue that public social and moral critique of a public figure held up to be some sort of past national treasure is just as valid and note that this can quite rightly lead to various individuals and institutions creating distance between someone without any illegality needing to be involved.

If I'm a brand (of the corporate type) and the sordid details of someone I pay to be associated with sleeping with hundreds of women, some borderline children come out in the papers without legal challenge, along with everything else plus actual factual reminders of how cringe and creepy I used to actually be come to light, I think I'd know what I'd do.

He has right to reply – give an interview. Follow up statement. Get the lawyers involved if untrue.

I'm afraid all I hear so far is... silence.

I kind of have some sympathy with this view.

But what do you do?....Brand seems to be, or have been seedy but probably legal. I think the consensus is that Savile wasn't.

I think there's a lot of political tribalism around the situation....which is mainly what I'm reacting against.

However, if claims have been made that he's broken the law raped and/or shagged kids then sure, that definitely should be investigated...But he's innocent until proven otherwise.....Similarly if these claims are found to be untrue then something should be done about that.....making false claims with no consequences isn't good either.

He has replied, hasn't he? He's said that he's done nothing illegal.

You (and many others) assume that anyone who is wrongly accused of something must inevitably instruct m'learned friends. Do you have any idea how much it costs to sue the likes of The Times and Channel 4? Millions. Then months and months of legal process, with no certainty of a good outcome and - as I pointed out to Wisbech, but inevitably he knew better - damages in UK defamation cases are notoriously low. A far more pragmatic - and realistic - approach would be to continue to deny all accusations and say "so sue me" or "so charge me".

I'm just surprised that Wisbech accepts that it is Russell Brand. He doesn't think names mean anything or that photographs of people represent them; he doesn't think that acts proven to be perpetrated by people mean that they actually perpetrated those acts.

Doesn't sound as frustrating as the 1970s when a fumble at a bus stop was the height of ambition.

If he was certain that these claims are untrue and that defamation could be proved he would have no worries about the costs of bringing an action. They would be sure to be awarded to him, alongside the damages.

'Nothing illegal' is fine, but isn't exactly the best line of defence now is it.

He put out a statement to get ahead of what was going to be published. There's since been a great deal more released and plenty that wasn't covered in the original retort.

Silence.

Brand makes 1million a year from Youtube alone, has a reported 16m net worth, and can make up to £80k a post on Rumble. I don't think that money is an issue for him, and it certainly won't be if there's a case to be had, as the alternative is much worse.

My point about the general right to valid social and moral critique still stands.

You are being ridiculous again. Of course I accept that people can be identified by their names and their photographs.

What I don’t accept is that you can determine anyone’s ethnicity just by reading a name or looking at a photograph.
