Couldn’t get over how dull this was -

Dry-Tinder It’s all gone quiet on the Oakie, wankathon front too

Yeah funny that - another one which seemed complete nonsense from the beginning.

    Mad_Cyril Who’s the fella who shat in a Kettle (or something along those lines)?

    Jackmaster.

    Although he was rather (only briefly) cancelled for supposedly being very handsy with people at a few gigs in quick succession. Not sure if the kettle thing was just some additional tidbit chucked on that makes things sound even worse, or to distract from the other stuff.

        Dan BBC News - Russell Brand accused of sexual assault by four women
        https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-66831593

        All years and years ago, with no police charges having gone against him. Just reads like yet another coordinated attempt to take someone down by some people with axes to grind, with the hope that by chucking lots of salacious sounding information together it will cloud people from the fact that there’s likely no smoking gun for any of it.

          A second woman alleges that Brand assaulted her when he was 31 and she was 16 and still at school. It is claimed the actor referred to her as ‘the child’ during an emotionally abusive and controlling relationship that lasted for about three months

          I don’t know what was wrong with Ant n Dec, on a Saturday night. It might be a bit daft, but nobody got raped, that we know of yet anyway.

          As her taxi approached Russell Brand’s home, Alice remembers the driver begging her not to go inside. Recognising the destination, he had started to ask questions. Alice admitted she was 16 and still in school.
          She says the driver replied that his daughter was the same age and entreated Alice: “Please, I’m asking you not to go in there, you could be my little girl, and I would want someone to do this for her.” He offered to take her home without charge, but Alice insisted she was fine. “He had just such a sad look in his eyes,” she recalls.
          Alice, whose name we have changed to protect her identity, now realises that she wasn’t fine. During a relationship that lasted for about three months when Brand was a BBC radio presenter, she says that he referred to her as “the child” and alleges that he became increasingly controlling, and then emotionally and sexually abusive.
          Brand, then 30, sent a car to her secondary school to take her out of lessons and to his home, she says, and asked her to save his name in her phone as “Carly” to deceive her parents.

            Fuckinell, is that in the Times!!!

            Hardly journalism, proper hamming it up. Looks like bait for the pearl-clutchers and internet lynch-mobs.

            Almost undermines the claimants position, which isn’t a great thing

              That’s from the times.

              Yes.

              Sorry. Taking a 16 year old out of school for sex is bad. It’s even worse if you are 31.

                Hang on a fucking minute. Taking a 16 year old out of school for sex is bad??!

                Christ, we’re going backwards!

                  Sit down Mills, news just in…

                  Someone has just texted me that being nasty to benders and people of colour is also bad!!

                  What’s going on with the world???
