I see the subtle but important distinction evaded you.

The police press release indicates several accusers. https://news.met.police.uk/news/russell-brand-charged-by-the-metropolitan-police-service-495944

You are struggling today Lou. ’Potential’ money extraction by filing a police complaint. That would be short cut to prison. If you have evidence of any of his accusers attempting to extract money in the basis of the allegations they have laid against Brand send it to both the Met and Brand’s legal team. Careful though with the police, filing a false claim risks criminal prosecution.

I described the justice I know he deserves and support him receiving. I have made absolutely no comment on what the outcome of that justice will be. Nor shall I until the verdict is passed down.

And do the conspiracy nonsense starts.

They are no longer ‘allegations’ they are now ‘criminal charges’. There is a subtle but important distinction.

You are confused on ‘innocent until proven guilty’. It does not exist outside the criminal justice system. He’s accused, the police, the judge and the jury must consider him innocent until the verdict comes down. Anyone else can make their own mind up. Just like there are those in this thread who make assumptions on the motives of his accusers. There are however some who habitually rush to support men accused of sexual crimes against women, I doubt through any sense of justice.

So long as he gets the justice he deserves. Trial in open court, the right to legal representation, the right to full and open judicial process.

These are criminal charges brought by the CPS. There is no means for the accuser to extract money from the accused in a criminal trial.

It looks to me like he’ll get a fair trial in an open court where he will be provided with legal representation. Though to be honest I would not be at all surprised if his narcissism gets the better of him and he chooses to represent himself while playing the ‘political persecution’ card. I’m am however sure he’ll receive a spirited defense on the forum.

On that note, he recently ‘got religion’. Polluting the River Thames during his conversion. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/the-unlikely-christian-conversion-of-russell-brand/

“Veterans ...... Wouldn't liberals generally refer to them as baby killers?” No. Good luck to you and anyone you care about dodging cancer. DOGe has cut funding to feeding poor children in America.

Meanwhile in Wisconsin.

So cutting food programs to feed poor kids in America, cutting the funding of cancer research, cutting veteran services, cutting social security services, cutting Medicaid etc To give tax cuts to the hyper wealthy. You’re good with that?

The price hike on U.S. foods to China will be yet one more hit for those Republican voting rural districts. On top of the hit Trump’s destruction of USAid has already delivered.

Removing the extrapolation. Google didn’t appreciate Marco Meier to the extent Marco Meier believed he was entitled.

China has responded: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2025/apr/04/us-business-stock-markets-nyse-blog-trump-tariffs-asian-markets

The UK has no options. As predicted, out on its own doing precisely as Washington dictates.

On top of which he hasn’t yet figured out he’s Trump’s fall guy.

So now the execution of the UK law is being thwarted to avoid upsetting the man-child in Washington?

Cross posting across threads, in an attempt to make me and where I spend my time the subject of the discussion. Refer top of thread for subject you should be discussing.

I’m waiting for you to provide justification for your sorry attempts to make me and where I spend my time the subject t of discussion. Let me help you get back to topic: Trump Declares 'Liberation Day' as Sweeping Tariffs Take Effect

You should try reading posts you link across threads before posting them.

Let me correct the notes you are obviously keeping. I stated, very correctly, that when in the United States I spend most of my time in ‘Westchester County’. I never stated or even implied that I spend most of my time there. Please update the notes in your files accordingly.
