Seeing a lot of 'It's always the ones you most suspect' comments re Russell Brand. Let's stop that. Sometimes it's the ones hiding in plain sight. But sometimes it's the ones hiding in the shadows. Your allies, your heroes, your friends. Don't be fooled into thinking predators are easy to spot.

Comedy is still full of men like Russell Brand, not even close to being as famous or influential as him, but still protected, lauded even. I hoped the documentary and investigation might open that up to scrutiny, but it never did. It is still happening

More to the point, it's not a reasonable thing to say before we take *any* action whatsoever. A gig is not a human right.

'Vaguely plausible dinner party talking points stretched out into a whole book' is a banger of a book title but sadly too self-aware for its intended audience

Thanks Mike (I think?)! Part 2 will talk possible solutions so maybe have a listen next Wednesday to feel a bit more hopeful - or at least more energised!

That's unfair, Bec. Lots of them are also trying to restrict access to abortion. These losers can multi-task.

HARD agree. Always winds me up when people in positions of power talk about supporting and developing new talent and somehow don't include PAYING THEM, the thing that would support and develop new and diverse talent the most.

I know pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but if there’s one person I wouldn’t want to be the judge of who goes into locker rooms, it would be the man who openly boasted about walking into dressing rooms of underage girls

When will Govt learn you can’t out-Reform Reform - you end up simply legitimising their toxic narrative. To see off populists, Labour needs to invest in public services & local communities, making a real difference to people’s lives - levy a wealth tax & use it to improve people’s lives *now*

I think what I object to most in this article is the implication that we're doing anything meaningful to combat income inequality. The non-dom millionaires SAY they're leaving us but they absolutely won't.

Sickness and disability benefits SAVE money. It's far cheaper to pay ill and disabled people a small allowance than look after them in hospitals and institutions or rescue them from crisis. Cutting benefits just adds to costs elsewhere in Government.
