Lol so it's all bullshit then.
Investigation just got a different hew to it now lad. Give us blood (not making the obvious paedo joke ill leave that to magic).
The Sun need shutting down if this is bollocks.
Even if it's not bullshit they need shutting down.
Get DS in Prison and throw away the key. #Justice4Huw #HuwKnuwNothing
Huw Edwards should be hanged either way. Better to be safe than sorry. It's what the Queen would have wanted.
Hasn't he supposedly knocked a stripper up and that's why his Mrs left?
I love the fact that this is all so cloak and dagger that they can't even name the law firm representing the 'victim'. I'm going Farrers.
Child and Child.
Another 'young person' has come out of the woodwork.
From a dating site which... again, feels like they're clutching at straws. The first one was probably an OnlyFans.
It is indeed Huw Edwards.
The Met have ruled that no crime has been committed though.
It sounds a bit like he's tried to top himself with that announcement of receiving in patient care for aerious metal health issues now.
And it's all DS' fault.
Trust in me mate.
People at work just couldn't get their heads around it being him as there appears to be some sort of personality cult in play, which I don't get at all. He's mad into church shit and couldn't be bothered to smile when he got his bum out. I'm not sure what other evidence was required.
This story is about one thing which is NewsCorp's attempts to bring down the beeb. They've lost this battle and will probably lose the war.
That's pretty much the long and the short of it. They were [are?] obviously on such sketchy ground that they were afraid to name him or even really comment outside of their editions.
Not like the Sun to run entirely untrue stories.
Meanwhile, in Italy . . .
When this first came out the big convo at work was 'who do you think it is' and I just passed DS' post off as my own info and now they think I'm some ITK.
What's the record number of BBC presenters suspended in one year?
The story appears to be "Huw paid a young man for some nudes and the young man spent the money on drugs, therefore Huw is a wrongun."
Now, I think Huw is an absolute fanny for paying for porn. It's free on the Internet, mate... but I don't see how what he did is a problem. Anyone on Only Fans could be spending their money on drugs. Your window cleaner could be spending the money you give them on drugs. So fucking what?

Wasn't he 17? It also depends on whether he knew the money was funding addiction. He shouldn't go to jail, but he also shouldn't continue raking in a fortune and being respected.
My window cleaner does spend his money on drugs. I saw him once racking up on my garden table.
You sure he wasn't just cleaning it?
Onlyfans presumably also have an 18 and over limit as well.
Is the entire premise of Onlyfans not young people selling content to old pervs? It's funny how this has been portrayed if it is the case, given the amount of free positive advertising red tops give it for women.
The Schofield case wasn't homophobia, he was grooming that boy from the age of 13 (or however old he was). I can only see that this one IS homophobia. Young women sell pictures to older men all the time.
If a powerful and well respected journalist is knowingly feeding a much younger person's addiction just so he can have a wank then he deserves the social consequences that follow. I don't think he should get locked up, but he should obviously face some heavy tutting and unemployment for a good while.
Either that or the younger person was legally making a living and he was legally purchasing their services. One can judge them but not condemn them.
I always wondered about how sure they are they won't get caught given the industry they work in. Can't be naivety alone?
I agree broadly with where you're coming from Spikes, but the reality is that if you're a high profile, higher paid, member of the BBC's presenting team then you're simply held to higher standards than the average Joe. As a result, he'll still lose his job despite there being no criminality involved.
Oh, he's finished, there's no doubt about that and I'm not going to cry for him, he's a rich fucker with a kink for paying poor people to degrade themselves.
But, all the hysteria (on Twitter, predictably) is insanity. He's essentially just paying over the odds for a private Only Fans and none of the seedy cunts paying those single mothers to twerk are losing their jobs for it. They're empowering women, apparently.
We're all bored at work, Spike, but do you really have to argue such a ridiculously niche position.
You're the niche position in this I think.
I haven't looked so I don't know, but hasn't the mental health card softened the anger somewhat? I'd have thought so, as you can pretty much be looked kindly upon having done almost anything if you play that one.
At best, he's had an affair with a crackhead. I think a celebrated national journalist should be better than that.
Don't think flashing the mental health card earns you admission to in-patient hospital care.
