"We Elevate People Like Jimmy Savile!" Andrew Neil On 'Vulgar' Russell Brand
Vložit
- čas přidán 18. 09. 2023
- Piers Morgan Uncensored is joined by former Editor of The Sunday Times Andrew Neil to react to the allegations Russell Brand is currently facing and the questions that need to be asked for media outlets historically platforming controversial people such as Jimmy Savile and Brand.
Andrew explains that the UK has a weird knack for elevating people who are 'not talented' and are flawed characters, using Jimmy Savile as an example. Andrew also adds that his 'vulgar' performances were enough to warrant concern alone, outside the rumours of how he treated and spoke about women as well.

"It isn't trial by media" Eeeeeeerh looks a lot like it
I get the impression Andrew Neil doesn't like Brand.
Russel Brand is trash
Yeah Piers really dropped the ball on this one... Where was the debate here? It was just some guy on a rant against Russel Brand unopposed.
By that criteria, you do like Russel Brand. Simplistic.
@@Th3Ey3 Andrew Neil is a heavyweight, you can't expect a wimp like Piers to debate him. 😂
What are you talking about? I was making a comment about Neil. I've never liked Brand's comedy. @@goncaloamaral7846
Idea that Murdoch journalism is real journalism is fucking bizarre.
He actually said that with a straight face aswell.
What a joke
The idea of social media journalism is even more bizarre
Please explain how the Times and the Sunday Times does not measure up to your high level of journalism.
@@sbor2020 he’s obviously one of these people that Russell brand would love to be his wingman
After all this chatter.
What happens if Russell Brand isn’t guilty of anything ?
That's it - it's a zero risk attack.
Unless people demand change and a better system that protects both accusers and accused.
He should sue his accusers and publish their names if he’s proved innocent. Nobody regardless of sex should be hidden. False accusations of rape should carry the same jail term as the crime itself.
Seems pretty unlikely, let's face it. He could sue Channel 4 and The Times though... their lawyers will have gone over everything in in advance to make sure the stories they heard stood up. I would be willing to bet money that Brand will be in no position to sue either Channel 4 nor The Times.
It's not just that they don't care, this is a premeditated orchestrated attack so they do care and if he is innocent (which I believe him to be) they will be a tad put out, however they know that he doesn't need to be found guilty in a court of law just in public opinion which they think they have full control over with their obfuscation/manipulation and insidious exploitation of the masses deliberately inculcated ignorance or the true state of affairs that ironically they the MSM are supposed to hold in their purview! js
@@dellwright1407 - There is already evidence of tampering with witness accounts though! js
The reality is that no one is surprised in least about these revelations. Russell Brand has always been a first class creep.
Trouble is you can't believe a word main stream journalists say anymore.
But random conspiretards on the internet are the very epitome of Truth, I suppose?
Because they’re not journalists , they’re activists
@@AlexLee360Spot on.
That's good, nobody should be believed without solid evidence that is seriously tested. That's why people should believe even less people like Russell Brand
Why you watching it then
Guilty by the media. Disgusting broadcast tonight. Have we learnt nothing from the Benjamin mendy case?
No, the allegations have been put in the media by the alleged victims. It's up to the police and CPS to decide if all this merits a court case - its in court that guilt or innocence is established.
What about the 10 women. I support them. As I’m a survivor. Some of ur words are pretty vile tbh
From the Harvey Weinstein case?
….media doesn’t pronounce guilt…courts do…we can say whatever we like outside of court.
@@kirstenwright3755What about them? They could be lying for all you know. I think you're instant judgement on Brand as guilty is even more disgusting. You don't know anything and you have happily condemned him on some anonymous women's say so. Thank gawd you aren't a judge as you'd have no end of innocent lives rotting in jail due to your narrow mindedness and toxic feminism.
Andrew Neil whom I admire and respect enormously is absolutely spot on in what he says here.
Can’t bare the odious narcissistic cocky and arrogant Brand! He is neither funny or a pleasant man. Hate the way he looks and hate his voice. Ludicrous how he has managed to be elevated by swarths of fans thinking he is somehow wonderful. Says a lot also about the type of person who follows him on social media and finds him funny and wonderful. Whether he is guilty of what he’s been accused of remains to be seen but with four women claiming this and more coming out and from what we know of him, all well documented, none of this would surprise me in the slightest. Let’s hope the authorities feel there’s enough there so he ends up in a court of law! That should take the smirk off his annoying face.
This is the same Andrew Neil who under his editorship of the sunday times allowed writers to publish aids denial propaganda in the early 90s. The same Andrew Neil who was involved in a sex libel case with a prostitute, dubbed "Randy Andy" back in 89/90. Fortunately for him all this "sleaze" happened before social media, but there are still a couple of articles online (scottish herald) that cover it. He may well be right about Brand, but his santimonious hypocrisy is a bit rich to say the least.
@@Volcanic47 Plenty of public figures have admitted visiting prostitutes in the past because this is not rape, not an extreme cruelty to another human being and not a crime.
robbierosss. that's wishful thinking. who cares what you or Andrew Neil think about Russel? It's irrelevant.
@@rayf2127He’s not being prosecuted for going to a prostitute 🙄
I didn't realise brand was found guilty.......
Nah, that happens in a court... we shall see if it goes that far.
@@dellwright1407 weird, the way everyone in the media is speaking, sounds like he's guilty to me🤷🏻♂️
All I hear from mainstream media is that he has been accused not that he is guilty
@@MasterRace777 My guess is he probably is... had a feeling this was brewing for a while. He was all over the TV in the UK and then all of a sudden left, don't think that was an accident.
@@dellwright1407His political Stance changed. He moved away from the left and mainstream ideology propagated by the establishment
That is out of order comparing Brand to Savile… they celebrated him as a Rock star before and he could well be innocent like Spacey. The culture has changed but so has Brand so it’s a bit out of order having a character assassination 15yrs later…
I mean, the main requirement of being a man whore like Russel, is to be characterless in the first place.
Spacey is not innocent. I doubt anything will happen to brand
Piers is attacking Brands character for tv as if that's his real persona. Imagine seeing Piers with his children at the funfair and attacking him on sight with the perjury case he was involved with 12 years ago¬!!
He would hit the wall because it's totally out of order! But he is doing exactly that to Brand.
@@mho2508he's defending the principle that this approach is wrong.
@@mho2508 I’m saying he could be innocent, I don’t know, he deserves a fair trial - doesn’t mean they get to character assassinate him, comparing him to Savile, calling him talentless & unfunny - totally out of order
This is a unwarranted attack. Absolute garbage, just like they did with Johnny Depp.
Team Russell!
Woo really after 10 women coming forward. It’s sick
Haha! Team Russell when you probably don't have a clue whether the accusations were true or not
@@sugarray-ys9jc don't care. 10 years later? AFTER the whole "me too: movement? Shady as phuk. They wrote checks for statements. Nothin but thirsty gold diggers. I have no sympathy for them. Team Russell ✊🏻🤨👍🏻
@@kirstenwright3755 all hungry for money too. Why now? Why not over a decade ago? Why not when the "me too" movement was HUGE. I'll tell you why the "reporters" offered money for ANYONE who would give a negative testimony. This happens all the time.
So deluded brand is a wanker. Watch dispatches he even sent texts to woman saying sorry for trying to rape them. He doesn’t like the media brand been because he is caught out. He is a narcissist.
They’re are strong similarities between Savile and Brand in that they make a joke out of everything and appear to be hiding their true self.
Funny thing is Andrew Neil was on jeffery Epstein black book so he’s the last person to comment on this 🤣
So was Trump.
And photo'd with young asian girls in Thailand, the sex tourist.
@@mypillowguy445so was Matt Groening
I find it hard to believe it's been under investigation for the last 4 years and he's never been tipped off by someone during that time considering there's lots of moving parts and people involved.
Bunch a bs
He was tipped off before it even aired. His video came out first before any allegations was set
@@DavidSmith-zd2iv Yeah tipped off by the newspaper / media a few days before it got released. 4 years is a long time to keep an investigation like that a secret without someone somewhere leaking any information.
Hes known its in the offing since 2017. Why he fled to CZcams. It was common knowledge in the UK comedy scene, even I heard the rumours as open micer
@@DavidSmith-zd2iv Well ex's, friends etc would've told him about journos asking questions - he even mentions it in his last video.
"There should be more of this (kind of journalism)" What? More trials by media before even going to the police? Absolutely insane. He lost me there.
Cool. Let’s get rid of journalism and free speech then. Go live in a communist country.
"Trials by media"?
IF You equal true journalism with nitwits letting it rip on social media, You must be joking.
Try again.
Surprise, surprise... arrogant ignorance is clearly alive and well...
AND, so is Your apparent disdain for any potential victims in this particular case.
@@lena-mariaglouis-charles7036ye, social media has completely killed critical thinking.. Everything is black or white with these fools.
I will regain my trust in journalists once I see an investigation on Epstein's clients list. And no, I'm not talking about social media
Agreed. It’s not the media’s job to enact vigilante justice. Especially under these circumstances. Ridiculous.
Beware of anyone who speaks with hate in there heart.
THEIR…
Seems your heart hates hatred.
I love Adam Curtis’ interview with Brand. You can tell Brand is desperate for his intellectual approval and Curtis just dissects him as a nothing more than a Narcissist posing as a jester to his face. You can hear Brands blood boiling, because he’s so desperate for Curtis’ approval.
And yet Brand has done far more to create awareness of Curtis' subject matter than he has himself. Don't get up from your armchair, your servent is on the way.
Approval from the BBCs conspiracy expert.
And to think all this time I've been trying to make my own mind up who and what are/is funny when i could've been checking with Andrew Neil!!
@@funnyflix895 My point was that comedy is subjective and that Andrew Neil saying someone isn't funny doesn't mean anything. I found Russell Brand's comedy hit and miss, but you have to keep in mind that all context was removed when they clipped up his routines
I wonder if Channel 4 will be releasing a well-researched documentary on the "grooming" gangs any time soon ?
Of course not
Wouldn’t that be trial be media as well then…dope
With Hydrant and MET now involved you can be certain this is well researched. Channel 4 exposed, the police took the reins. Exactly what happened with Harvey. Bravo to C4.
He's admitted indecent exposure on tape for his Radio 2 show. Let's hope the law catches up with him.
We also elevate people such as Kobe Bryant who was allowed to continue playing for the Lakers while under investigation for an allegation that was made contemporaneous to the incident (Benjamin Mendy and Mason Greenwood fans take note!).
The allegations were credible and there was physical evidence. He issued a public statement acknowledging that there had been no consent once the victim withdrew her cooperation from the police investigation (causing the case to collapse), and Bryant was rewarded promptly with a $billion contract with Nike, which still has a range of Bryant goods, I think.
Compare and contrast with Brand, whose publisher and manager have broken ties, along with a charity he was associated with. YT has demonetized, of course.
The message I take from this is that Bryant was deemed valuable, but Brand isn't. What a joke!
, whose publisher and manager have broken ties, along with a charity he was associated with
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh dear Poor russ my heart bleeds
Bryant was a talent that was hard to replace..Brand has always just been a attention whore, very different.
Have to take note, Kobe had sold his soul to the devil by selling out to the system. Made his money and no doubt joined the powers that be to hide from conviction.
Bryant,whatever his crimes DID have talent.The point Andrew Neil made was that Brand WASN'T worthy of elevation because he didn't have the talent. Two different things.
@@vortex63 The point is that Bryant was a confessed rapist who continues to be feted and rewarded financially, while nothing is proven against Brand, who has been cancelled nevertheless.
I don't care what point you think Neil was making. The above is the point *I* am making.
Wonderful another hit piece on Russell... People have no shame
People are well aware, that the media are pushing this for money not because it's true or we like to see it.
Brand is more popular right now than ever before, because he's now fighting for US and we're behind it!
He had no shame when dating exclusively girls u18 as over 30yo for years? I don't care about the age of consent in the UK that is disgusting! He had no shame when literally laughing about the deaths of thousand brave Ukranians while running ads for brands owned by Russian fertilizer company? You lot will idolize everyone who shits on mainstream media like sheep, because that's what you want to hear. How do YOU have no shame? He might be innocent, he might be guilty, we don't know that but jumping into his defense is no better than accusing him without facts. Saying Russell Brand is corrupt, vulgar and tasteless is not shameful at all, and it's not a hit piece, learn to digest information please.
Please! Slobbering over Brand is very unbecoming.
First time in ages I've agreed with Andrew Neil.
"We elevate people of no talent - people of no redeeming value whatsoever"
Agree absolutely. Sad isn’t it..
Ironic we have Neil being interviewed by Morgan. Two talentless gatekeepers.
...obviously speaking of himself.
It's true and was definitely worth noting, but if you were the Royal Family, that's exactly who you want in the spotlight. Someone who can never criticize anyone credibly, because they themselves (Brand, Saville) are so ethically questionable that if they got on a moral high chair it would do nothing but provoke laughter and mockery.
Yes because humans are pretty garbage in general if people would just be honest about humans
Should have loved same energy about Jeffrey Epsteins case , please !
IF it’s true WHY do they Wait sooooooo long. He wasn’t hiding. I’m so sick of these allegations and the cancel culture. I want to cancel a few myself but These allegations are so LAME and over 20 years old. Stop already. It makes it worse for people who actually been a victim to step up and speak at all.
1) Sleep with a celeb
2) Make no DNA evidence with police at the time
3) Wait a decade until that celeb is huuuge and rich
4) steal money
So you are saying these aren't victims and that real victims under the same conditions should speak up? Historical crimes exist for a reason
Yes did people wait before testifying against Harvey Weinstein. Why in your opinion?
@@DailyCorvidbe a celeb. Use your power, abuse women. Be defended by weaklings who want to be you.
@@jackwalker5266when he's tried and locked up for these accusations then they will be victims until that time they are accusations and he is innocent... understand?
Even if he isn't found guilty the job has been done by the media
Great aint it
No its not great, if your not guilty until you have your chance to defend yourself in court. @@millwallholdings
I'm subscribing to Russell Brand on rumble
Ah yes, the media has greatly damaged his career. And you know what people do when their livelihood is ruined by lies and slander by media organizations? They file defamation/libel suits.
Ever wonder why Brand isn't doing that, if he's so squeaky clean and innocent?
Similar characteristics to Saville he was facilitated and enabled to behave like this, society have lost values, this guy is talking sense
They should have taken their evidence to the police, this was a media lynching.
People are acting like this is the first piece of investigative journalism they have ever seen and that they have never been grateful for certain things to be exposed by these very same investigative journalists!

Color me shocked that Piers would be holding a torch for the lynch mob.
The vast majority of so called journalist's these days simply read out other people's opinions from a teleprompter or autocue and then proclaim to be investigative 😂
Like you do you mean 😂😂
@@millwallholdingsWhat do you mean? He is perfectly right.
I dont believe it's right that a woman can accuse you of a crime 10 years after the fact. That opens up a lot of room for legal abuse.
Even a 16 year old?
Imagine people like Harvey Weinstein, Danny Masterson, they would love this
And btw there are statue of limitations but that is waived away when a person has multiple criminal allegations of the same crime or serious offenses
The fact she didn't get DNA evidence stored away at the time SPEAKS VOLUMES FOR HER MOTIVE!
Especially women who queued up to have sex with Brand & 20 years later feel disgusted with what took place.
@@DavidSmith-zd2ivWell said
2003 -2023 20 years after the fact.
Nonsense from Andrew Neill. Russell Brand was very popular and had great ratings for someone supposedly "unwatchable". This sort of 'investigative journalism' and the ensuing trial by media is utterly biased and extremely vulgar.
Great stuff. Get a guy in who hates someone. Very objective.
What he said made perfect sense and that is why it went straight over your head. But you still have Tucker Carlson, to get the "truths" you want to hear. I note this pair of full blown fascists are both rootin for Putin in their efforts to drag down liberal democracy.
@funnyflix895 Exactly all the free speech warriors freak out at people that think differently than them.
FREE SPEECH DEMOCRACY! What, you hate me and want me dead?! Silence these voices, they are threatening!
Can't have it both ways weirdos speech is not free if you attach consequence but that is too much for your heads to handle hence why Elon still bans Alex Jones, he does not believe in free speech at all, he has boundaries and consequence just like most of them do.
"I'm not comparing Russell to Jimmy Saville" but you just did . Outrageous, Piers should have pulled him for that.
He said he wasn't comparing them for what they did. He didn't compare them for what they did. He compared them for how they had been elevated whilst being talentless
We should make sure to compare him to Assange, it's far more fitting.
@@JohnMoran Lol..Brand is nothing like Assange, Brand just regurgitates the same poo as Dore and numerous others..he should be compared to R. Kelly or other celebrities.
joanneguy. Pierce himself keeps comparing him to Harvey.
Hahahaha journalists doing police work - priceless
Harvey Weinstein got taken down by journalists
Journalists doing ANY work is a miracle imo!
@@DailyCorvid I'd prefer it if they didn't do any 'work' and just have a permanent duvet day.
They seem to be journalists doing journalism! I think people have forgotten what journalism actually means.
Maybe somebody should wake up the police and remind them they have a job to do?
That fact that Brand is revered at all proves how debased our society has become.
This is called defending the basic human rights of a person to be presumed innocent until proven guilty, maybe you will understand if the tables were turned on you and you were falsely accused.
@@thoughtsofwisdom1223 Our actions have consequences. Brand is suffering from buyers remorse. He’s only got himself to blame.
Guilty by the media.
I can see Russell brand in PRISON for a long time for this ! So sad, we all got fooled, just like with Saville 😢
Journalism doesn’t exist anymore
God warns us throughout the Bible against the spirit of lust. Brand is dealing with it's destructive nature.
Questionable morals? Probably? This being a total hit job to shut him up? You better believe it.
Questionable morals definitely. Just like Jimmy Saville wrapped himself up in charity work Brand has wrapped himself up in the conspiracy theory world - both smokescreens for wrongdoings. You fell for it, like many others.
I keep asking this but why would they?
Soon as he said that the left are maniacs, and that identity politics is mental - they dived in.]
How dare you not agree with our novel cult!
Hell will be filled with these maniacs.
@@DavidSmith-zd2iv The conspiracy theory is just a rhetorical device to take the spotlight away from the sex offences. Brand left the mainstream a few years ago because he knew his time was up.
10 women can’t be wrong. I think it’s awful people would ever support him. What if one of ur daughters was R by him. Disgraceful
It would be better if investigative journalists presented all the details to the Police to investigate, and only published the outcome of a trial, but their only concern is selling papers not treating people as innocent until proven guilty.
They have an obligation to turn over any and all evidence to the police.
This goes for anyone, in any way of life
I agree with that but you're right, they want money
Better for who? No media people have morals lol..msm or social media. If nothing else its exposed him as a creepy weirdo..what's wrong with that!
There is definitely politics behind why these people are coming out after years to accuse Russell Brand. Someone provided courage and must have opened their eyes to speak up against what was done to them. It is a good thing but must have been supported by strong people who despise Russell.
It’s not investigative journalism if it’s so one sided! The dispatches piece doesn’t even consider Brand’s side of the story. True journalism is about exploring BOTH sides of the story and certainly not about allegations from unnamed sources 🤦🏼♂️. Ffs, this is utter nonsense!
Until there's actually some evidence besides he said she said well Russell's innocent
History proves that, in times of mass-alienation, charlatans pretending intellectual authority, who at other times would be immediately recognised as mediocre fakes, always find it much easier to become widely-accepted as authentic saviours. Brand even tries to look like the traditional image of Jesus.
I dont think Russel even has such aspirations as being an intellectual authority to begin with... this is so off the mark
@@knightheaven8992 So could you please explain to all of us with fully-functioning critical faculties, what exactly Mr. Brand has lately been broadcasting to 6 millions + subscribers, if not his pretence that he knows better than the medical profession, academics, scientists, political leaders, journalists, etc. ?

Why doesnt andrew neil explain himself as to why he is on a certain persons flight logs
It's strange, he was the Channel 4 BOSS during Brands heydays, in fact I seem to remember that Andrew Neil fed into his career build and basically PROMOTED THIS MAN knowing everything he knows now.
This is bias, baggage from his own past he is trying to opportunise - and blame Brand. Fraud.
@@DailyCorvid during brands heyday like you said he was probably on board with alot of their views now he has jumped ship he has rocked the boat and they want their pound of flesh
I don't think he was on the flight logs (I think he sued someone for saying that) but I think he was in Epsteins 'little black book' ie. phone/address contacts
Bring legal charges or shut up. Why accuse people in public instead of going to police? This isn’t justice, this is a witch hunt. . .
Sure, journalists can and should follow leads and investigate stories for the public good. My concern is that powerful people, corporate elites and in powerful politicans seem to have direct line to certain media to be able to order this sort of "investigative journalism". I am not 100% sure that happened here, but it wouldn't suprise me.
In my country media goes with titles like ''Antivaxer Russell Brand did this and this....'' but when there is serial killer that is vaxed, they just say ''There is a serial killer'' LOL.
I'm not saying he is innocent but they try to blame unvaxed people for everything LOL
Not unvaxed people - more like people who don't do exactly what we tell them when we tell them to do it.
Vax was just the latest. More to come with these maniac lefty bigots.
Anrivaxer?
Its not that difficult to understand media is all about headlines using lines like antivaxer will lead to more clicks its part of their game and people fall for it all the time.
You really think Brand is not vaxxed? 😂😂😂
He's vaccinated. He's just playing to be dumb to appeal to his audience.
Everything Andrew said was spot on.
The main reason J Savile got away with it was Kier Starmer when in charge of the CPS deemed him too popular to prosecute so no action was taken until after his death we knew in 1977 there was a problem as they changed the age of people going to TOP to 18 to try to mitigate what was going on with the young men and women who attended the shows.. The BBC has constantly protected those they deemed to valuable for the company and covered up their actions even getting rid of those who complained and smearing their reputations so no one would believe them instead saying it is because they lost their jobs they are accusing famous people of these acts.
Is there any proof to this comment "too popular to prosecute" sounds like pure bullshit and i would love to look in to it. And no i won't do my own research because i didn't make the comment
Russell was a massive drug user but he remembers everything perfectly, its quite piss weak to jump to his defense just because he says things you agree with.
It is actually piss weak and evil to condemn a man without evidence. People are defending him because 'trial by media' should never be allowed to occur.
It seems you are quite happy to let it thrive so I'm guessing you think whatever someone says about another person must automatically be fact.... my god, talk about simple..

If that’s true then Brand should sue for liable and defamation. If it’s all B.S. and fake Brand will have no trouble winning. UK liable laws are pretty brutal, you need absolute truth to publish these stories.

Russell brand says corporate media want to silence him but hes got 6m subs, no one is trying to silence him.

Nobody cares what he says on his podcast... it's raping women and the sexual assaults that are the problem.
Bang on Mr Neil
No one elevated Russell, he elevated himself
Hardly?
You cannot elevate someone who isn't loved by the public@@tilatsiddiqui3969
Has Andrew Neil gone senile or is he just bored since he departed This Week? Not sure why it's equating RB to JS. Such a LOW blow there, Andy.
And the temerity to DARE to tell the general public what they SHOULD find funny. And to think, I rather enjoyed his mockingly patronising, yet obvious tongue in cheek tone on This Week. Yet here he is, in all his BOLDNESS (spurred on by Piers, no less, to have a good 'ol dig! Get stuck in mate!) to tell us what we should and should not find funny. Oh dear. Who died and made him (and all the rest of the self-righteous media mogul presenters) the HUMOUR POLICE?
he is right to a certain extent. I'm a fan of Brand's YT channel but his previous incarnation was vomit-inducing for me. Just talking vulgarly and acting like a ponce.
Andrew’s anger, jealousy and hatred towards Russell gave me more assurance that this is a well intended, objective journalism solely to seek justice 👀
WHEN IS CHANNEL 4 BRINGING OUT AN INVESTIGATION ON WHAT WENT ON AT EPSTEINS ISLAND AND ALL THE SLEAZE BAGS THAT WERE INVOLVED?
Neil is correct about the pernicious model of celebrity worship we've adopted here in the Anglosphere which effectively rewards and elevates the dominant, narcissistic personality, the leader of the gang. The worst aspect of it is how this feeds into our broader general culture and sets the tone, so that every office in the land has become a Poundland version of this dynamic in microcosm. A teenage high school canteen with competing personalities vying to be top dog. However, I would disagree that such swaggering egos lack talent, something which at best eludes definition. The fact is these people are found by the masses to be 'entertaining' precisely because of their narcissistic personality traits one might argue, and such dark charisma comes at a price. Such personalities strike those very instincts within us which, ever since martyrs were thrown to the lions in the Colosseum, demand satisfaction. In a commercial environment, Brand was doing precisely what he was paid to do, to entertain. AS with a nice side-salad, the respectable figure, the moral figure, may be good for us, but alas that isn't often what we want. We find them 'boring' and we do need entertainment to feel alive I'm afraid. Civilisation is a delicate balance and hard to get right.
Andrew Neil speaks the truth. Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross should be VERY ashamed of themselves for the way they left lewd messages on Andrew SAchs's answering machine about Brand's relationship with Sachs' granddaughter.
Yeah. He should definitely go to prison for a long time for that😂. Piss off
This just shows a pattern of behaviour that was always prevelant
If it goes to trial will not look good at all and with so many people that have stories including exposing himself in front of a minor, he's gonna need a real good spin doctor and lawyer
When you think of Depp, everyone lept towards his defense but more importantly no other accusers existed
eh...sachs grand daughter had her rehab paid for by brand long after that happened and he said sorry to her and she belives him, he literally saved her life and she knows it
And in what universe does leaving a disrespectful, lewd message on an answer machine, equate to rape?
Drop me out, you simpleton.
@@jasalexander-hain2601She only needed rehab because of what RB and JR did!!

Honestly, this does look like a case of honest old-school type of investigative joirnalism. And I'm no fan of the modern mainstream media, just to be clear.
I appreciate Piers' take on covering this story. So far stayed very impartial, didn't jump to add onto the public humilitation of Russel, but also didn't undermine the weight of the accusations by the alleged victims.
Totally agree! So far on this story, Piers has done well at staying impartial
Most naive comment ever.
@JohnMoran Why is it the most naive comment ever? And do you mean the comment was the most naive comment ever put on to youtube? Seems unlikely....
I am not on any side but I have seen a few of his podcasts and found he brings up some valid points about big pharmaceutical and other big corporations and I knew he had lived a sordid rock star lifestyle in the past and was thinking that something like this might happen,
I was blindly supporting Brand till I looked further. Just listen to him swoon while interviewing Jimmy Saville of all people!
Women who come out with sexual allegations *decades* after the alleged "fact" should NEVER be taken seriously in any society regulated by the right of Law; in any society that values Justice and has an ethical foundation of some kind, for that matter. On the contrary, they ought to be immediately placed under scrutiny for defamation.
You say you have been molested (or worse)? Why didn't you report the crime immediately? What is your justification for waiting 10, 20 years or more? Where is your hard evidence? Wounds? Bruises? A formal statement from a hospital? Where are your witnesses? *Credible* ones, not a bunch of other women like you who "forgot" all about it for decades, only to pop up now and cry "me too!". Can they prove they *actually* witnessed the fact? Can you prove anything at all, for that matter?
99% of the allegations made by "me too" and similar movements turned out to be utterly fabricated. Women accusing men of sexual misconduct are at the top of the list in every statistic of false reporting of crimes, everywhere in the Western world.
And don't even get me started with "most women don't report sexual crimes for fear of not being believed and for fear of being shamed": women's allegations are taken at face value, nowadays; where do you think we are living? Afghanistan? In the Middle Ages?
When you get too close to the truth...
Media stopped short on Prince Andrew funny that.
Where were you? The media went bananas on Prince Andrew... he avoided a court case by paying Virgina Giuffre off to the tune of $10m or whatever it was. So at least there was some justice by recompense to victim. Let's hope justice can be done in this case too.
Please get educated before you post lol
If the person accused is named in the press
Then so sould be the accuser
There’s something very British with these celebrity predators who flaunts their sleaziness. It’s the British class system with the extreme liability laws, making those money and power almost untouchables!
True. We know the bulk of his detractors have history of underhanded behaviour. They don't really care if someone is a monster or not, like in the case of Jimmy saville their spiritual God
Yes he was never funny or told a good joke but his life is now about to be broken. If a man says that a female comedian or footballer touched him inappropriately nothing will happen, yet a woman says something about a male and he is immediately assumed guilty
It's a crying shame how very correct your statement is.
When are we going to have a documentary on Cyril Smith? That's been quietly swept under the table.
Savile had access to Thatcher and the Royals. holy crap.
i used to have a lot of respect for andrew neil but since covid where he showed he has fascist tendencies, i dont support him anymore.
he's a little tyrant alright. Though I was never fooled by him.
This guy is exactly the reason why media is disgusting. He is proud of the article. They know exactly what they are doing and what will happen.
Who are they? The media haha
Yeah excellent investigation work to be prod off
Not to me they aint Love to see them going after this Druggie creep
If the article turns out to be correct then it is something to be proud of, at worst it has proved he treated women like crap.. although he already admitted that so..erm.
@@rossleeson8626i'm guessing "they" means the media outlet who published the story. Not a literal generalization
Very true, Brand isn’t funny, he just comes out with shocking stuff and idiots laugh at him. I thought Brand and Ross were a pair of cnuts for their phone call to Andrew Sachs and nothing they’ve done since has changed that view.
Heartbreaking: The worst person you know just made a great point
Stand by Russell ❤❤❤❤
This has all the makings of a hit piece. Andrew just seems bitter and jealous of Brands success.
Unlikely to be jealous.
He's doing his deep state job as he always has done.
It's about everyone else, isn't it? Brand cultists won't accept that maybe ... just maybe ... Brand is a wron' 'un! Maybe because he thought right wing conspiracist nutjobs are more gullible and idiotic!
The lonely old man doesn't like him, never has.
Can't you come up with a better take down of Andrew? Or do you actually believe that?
Andrew Neil rocks.
Everyone should take a deep look at themselves and ask themselves “What did I find funny during those days?” “What did I feed and was it love?”
Fantastic work piers , impartial investigative journalism 👏🏾
Bewhahaha
didn’t sound impartial to me
@@LeScandal I was being sarcastic lol
@@ivanmcclean2868Clearly 😂
I stand with Russell Brand!
Rather you than me
@@jamesg8175So you're content to let innocent people (so far) get lynched and ruined for no reason? Nice to know.
So do ten other women lol
@@wukongsun6223 - Good for them!
@@nemosays6337 mhm lol not so much for RB
I never liked Russell Brand with his Charles Manson vibes and unhinged views.However it appears that many women found him irresistible and willingly followed him to the bedroom. I'm pretty sure this type of promiscuity is rampant in the entertainment industry and beyond. Apparently there is a fine line between investigative journalism and an orchestrated witch hunt.
Huw Edwards wasn’t treated this way
Your interview with tait opened my eyes to tge media ....make sure they dont after u next piers
I think he'll be fine, he's walking a narrow middle line which is fair. He's traversing two worlds.
@@Footloose_the_movie at the moment 👀
Since when has being 'vulgar', 'vile', 'lascivious', 'salacious' or whatever other term people may call Russell Brand, equated to that same person being a rapist or sexual deviant?
This disgustingly pious and puritanical attitude Neil has about Brand is sickening. If we are to consider his pathetic viewpoint seriously, that would see Jimmy Carr imprisoned tomorrow, as his act contains a plethora of paedophile and rape jokes.
Talking about something and actually engaging in it are two different things. Brand is a natural flirt and always has been. He has been painfully honest on every aspect of his character, even the uglier side, and this whole situation is clearly an attempt to end his public profile.
What rape victim waits for a decade before telling anyone about it.... and what rape victim who wants to report the rape, heads straight for Channel 4 and not the nearest police station?
Anyone who actually believes there is an ounce of truth in any of these accusations is obviously a simpleton.
Great investigative journalist 10 yrs too late 🤦 doing this in 2013 would have been relevant, doing it now in 2023 is spineless
How about doing 'decent journalism' on Epstein Island and their customers...
That's right Piers Morgan, Russel Brand has a huge fan base, because we find him hilarious, Russel elevated himself, he pulled himself out of addiction, developed a comical act adored by many, but most of all, these days he's an activist, counterculture, offering a platform to shed light on everything politicians and journalists want to sweep under the carpet. He has a brilliant mind and helps many work their way out of active addiction. Using journalism to influence public opinion, against Russel, is all you can come up with. Yes Russel has been been vulgar, so what, he isn't a hypocrite. As it stands now, Russel Brand is innocent until proven otherwise. No you can't compare Weinstein and Saville to Brand. They are worlds apart
Speak for yourself when you say “we find him hilarious”. Not everyone does.
@@Jamiesuz11Well, anyone with a sense of humour does, that's why he has so much support - not yours though clearly. I hope you are enjoying your 'Hi-De-Hi' boxset.
@jennyeshed1045 Spot on 👏👏👏
You’re right, Russel has a brilliant mind and has turned over anew leaf in recent years, but, don’t ever for one second think that during his days of extreme hard drug abuse and pushing every boundary that he would not be capable of the crimes he’s accused of; hard drug users do all kinds of terrible things, even to their own families.
even if russell is never charged with a crime afraid his career has taken a serious hit and may be entirely ruined⚛😀
Yeah like prince andrew
He’s got plenty of money 💰 so don’t feel too sorry
How can anyone suggest that criminal proceedings should stem from investigative journalism, when a man has now lost work because of speculations made in the news? They women should have gone to the police in the first place. Whatever you think of Russel Brand, he deserves to defend himself through due process.
Another hit job, just like Andrew Tate
You can believe that and you may be right but i'm guessing that you don't actually know, just like I don't know. So if that's the case, stop pretending you do know
The police haven’t arrested him
I didn't say that they had
