"Between *1999 and 2005* "

Let that sink in....Revoking consent after more than 20 foking years.

Evidence of rape or SA? Just their word...

I’m skeptical of anyone who claims a crime was committed 25 years ago and they want to talk about it now. Particularly when it’s a political polarizing figure.

Should a woman go to jail
for falsely accusing a man of GRAPE?

[HereWeGoAgain]

I do not believe that this man did any of this at all.

[llkg]

Ah... UK Police. The same guys who recently arrested a mum and dad for social media posts that disagreed with their local school...

[PrayerWarriorGaming]

Crazy they can arrest someone solely off of word of mouth with no proof whatsoever. Dumbest thing ever.

I don't believe it for a second. They been trying to take down Brand for years now. This is fishy af

Remember everyone, Russel Brand is not suicidal.

[king-galaxiusstravinsky]

You are bold enough to accuse a celebrity of rape. You ARE BOLD ENOUGH TO BE PUBLICLY IDENTIFIED.✌🏿

[MegaRandompoo]

it is interesting how anyone who speaks out about the status quo is swiftly accused of some kind of sexual crime. Almost like its an easy way to sway public perception

[Truthislife]

4 women wait 20 years to come forward? Sorry, not buying it

[everhdt]

He spoke out against the globalist evil.

[pattytracey]

Adult women YEARS LATER! Really? Ridiculous…

[temperedglass]

Can you imagine after 20 years you have to answer to claims like this because some women magically remembered what happened to them. Wild.

[saffronskies]

London's Metropolitan Police Force is a DISGRACE.

[inspector_]

Alleged rape charges from 1999 and 2005? I smell BS!!!

[heddyfusco]

Seriously this all happened 20 yrs ago and all of sudden he is being targeted? The world all knows what is really going on in UK! Shameful what is happening! The entire world knows we are Not Stupid!!!

[MapleMAGA]

20 year old rape charges. It’s hard to take that seriously.

[bastymanguy]

The establishment doesn’t like his YouTube channel

[SuccessMindset]

This is what they do instead of targeting real crime
