seems to be a lot of people on here defending him despite all the videos of him groping, kissing and being a total perv, even pulling his pants down then sitting on a womans knee, compare all that to the spanish blokeAlways was
I think this is more another example in a very long line of men being allowed to abuse (or worse) women for far too long, and most of the reaction and debate is the seeming steadfast support Brand has from more men than many of us are comfortable with.It must just be me and my lack of interest in celebrities, but do allegations against a B lister really need this circus? He just does not warrant the attention given him
I have always found that the people most uncomfortable with people facing consequences for their bad (or, in this case, horrific) behaviour are the ones most worried about eventually having to face consequences for their own bad behaviour.
“Do we really want to live in a world where any person you have sexually abused or raped can accuse you of sexual abuse or rape!?”
It’s not that status that creates this circus. It’s the face that he “freethinks” and tells disillusioned people how life is stacked against them.It must just be me and my lack of interest in celebrities, but do allegations against a B lister really need this circus? He just does not warrant the attention given him
That works both ways. There are plenty on social media who have already determined that he couldn't possibly be guilty as well as those who think he is.Of course not. All I’m saying is social media has already determined the outcome. Without it all you have is the telly and the next days paper. Social media speeds up the process ten fold and people make their mind up because of it.
What was that thing Einstein said?…
If you say so. I don’t see what is so shocking about it. I have genuinely found that to be the case. I did qualify it was my personal experience. And I don’t even think it is a particularly controversial take about people that are uncomfortable with other people facing consequences for the bad behaviour.I'm sorry dude but that's just bloody perverse. A shocking take, that shits on all your 'mean well' posts.
Where’s my cousin?What was that thing Einstein said?…
I thought the right were obsessed with "protecting children" and yet Brand was fucking a 16 year old and sending cabs round to her school to get her?
Claims which he has in no way denied.

I knew he was an unfunny **** masquerading as a comedian when I saw him on TV occasionally in the 2000s and have avoided any programme with him on it since. Having watched the Dispatches programme, it has reminded me how shit his act was. Why the fuck do people laugh at a succession of lewd comments made in a screeching voice while he waves his arms about. What’s funny about listening to some **** tell an audience what sex acts he wants to perform. There’s must be a lot of weird fuckers around who liked him that enabled him to become a Hollywood star. Just fucking bizarre. Noel Gallagher and Jonathan Ross must feel a bit fucking stupid today.
So you think people that are uncomfortable with other people facing consequences for their bad behaviour are in the right?I do say so. It is shameful. And frankly worse than anything i've seen yet on this, including bigga and ancoats, and that's saying something. Absolute shocker. And not that I agree with the comment you were responding to btw, just that your reaponse is just that low.
In fairness Seb, that in itself in a debate like this, is a horrible generalisation.I have always found that the people most uncomfortable with people facing consequences for their bad (or, in this case, horrific) behaviour are the ones most worried about eventually having to face consequences for their own bad behaviour.
“Do we really want to live in a world where any person you have sexually abused or raped can accuse you of sexual abuse or rape!?”
It hasn’t. If he is taken to court he will receive the presumption of innocence.When did the law change from innocent until proven guilty to guilty until proven innocent?

I think it is a fairly accurate one and not at all controversial.In fairness Seb, that in itself in a debate like this, is a horrible generalisation.
So you think people that are uncomfortable with other people facing consequences for their bad behaviour are in the right?
I genuinely don’t understand why you have taken such offence to my post.
He’s not been stopped from having a fair trial. He’s had the right to reply to the dispatches programme.The Human Rights Act 1998
The act is intended to protect the rights and freedoms of individuals in the UK. One of the most important rights protected by the Human Rights Act 1998 is the right to a fair trial. The right to a fair trial includes the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty
