Here’s something you may not know about the Russell Brand trial. All 6 complainants pressed charges only AFTER they were contacted by Times reporters. Almost as if they were encouraged to press charges. But why after 20 years would the Murdoch machine run a huge private enquiry followed by obviously prejudicial wall to wall coverage? A noble quest to right historic wrongs in which a series of groupies who’d willingly performed extreme sex acts had in fact not consented to a handful of alleged other acts? Or was it a campaign to obliterate a genuinely popular voice who took aim at corporate interests and the liberal establishment, platformed Tommy Robinson and unpicked the narrative on immigration, Ukraine, COVID vaccines for a mass audience? I know what I think. Today’s crowing full page spread says it all: We got our man.
