6 months ! 6 months suspended sentence! What a farce! If it had been someone unknown, they would have got a prison sentence. Absolutely disgusting! No justice!!!

People being locked up for upsetting people!!

[qhnhoed]

He's caused harm to children for the rest of their lives, and he has got away with it. I can't understand the justice system any more, feel sick with what's happening in this country.

[DeadDave]

The look of arrogance and defiance on his face says it all.

[ninjasixrr]

What is it with people who work for the bbc!

People like him classed as victims of illness by the justice system in this country, that’s why judges go easy on them? What do you think?

[RobertTaylor-swwj]

Bow your heads in shame for not checking on your staff,

Judge needs to be looked at here. . . Something stinks

[grahampestridge]

Protect our children give out real sentences this won't prevent similar crimes shame on the justice system looks 2 teir get imprisoned for texting or being in the wrong place.

[Shona-oy]

As a supposedly upstanding person his sentence should have been severe. He should have known better. However he did know that the old, white, establishment men would have his back so he carried on regardless. Despicable conduct. Enough about his mitigations, WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN?

[Manike-ubnw]

Such arrogance 😮 Unbelievable. Wonder what other skeletons he has hidden in his closet!🤔 Anyway he has fallen from grace. Pride goes before a fall

[paulc]

I said to my Dad when Huw Edwards admitted is crimes that he wouldn't go to prison while my Dad said he would. No justice done. Makes me sick. Huw playing the mental health card as well. Pathetic.

Nice early retirement, millions in the bank and a golden pension. But of course there isn’t 2 tier everything.
