I've been saying "there should be enquiries!" but hey HarperCollins had one! and oh look, no consequences for the abuser, silencing for a woman speaking out.

"Around the same time, the children’s section of HarperCollins brought in a new head, Cally Poplak. After hearing concerns about Walliams’ alleged inappropriate behaviour from staff members, Poplak initiated an inquiry in late 2023. At least five female members of staff discussed their experiences and managers were told about the sexual relationship Walliams had with the junior employee. The investigation wrapped up in 2024 with no consequences for Walliams. For one woman who spoke to the inquiry, it was the end of her career at the company. She was reportedly given a five-figure payout and signed a separation agreement with a strict non-disclosure clause."

Emboldened by their criminalization of so-called "extreme" content, UK legislators say they're coming for camming next, calling it sex trafficking. 34 UK MPs released a report calling for the complete criminalization of cams and livestreams.

Heck yeah, Lucy Beaumont! 💪 This is how you do it. You listen, you take it seriously and you speak up for those who don't have the abilty to do that for themselves (and damn the consequences).

This interview is heartbreaking. Lucy Beaumont has revealed she was one of the main whistleblowers who reported David Walliams. She’s never worked with him but his former runner raised his concerns with her and she listened youtu.be/wiuOCjS62JI?...

People saying using AI to code is the good use of LLM I welcome you to move and live here we have TEN DATA CENTERS in Indonesia and all of the residence are currently experiencing clean water shortage. STOP. USING. AI. FOR FUCK SAKE.

The day after Russell Brand is sentenced to 10 years, the story - long rumoured and injunctioned until yesterday - about Little Britain star David Walliams has now dropped. Read with caution, it is very upsetting. We need a reckoning with 2000s comedy. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Comedian and former Britain’s Got Talent judge alleged to have groomed fans he met when they were as young as 15 and harassed women in the workplace over a number of years. He denies the allegations

One surprise I learned during the many years of reporting on various disability issues was that the disabled community isn't particularly as enthusiastic about the Paralympics as the media are. It's for the very reason that it gives the public a false sense of the real life struggles

In 2014 a woman accused Brand of assault. He sued her for harassment. The judge - despite acknowledging that she might have told the truth - ordered her to never speak to anyone about this, including doctors, therapists and police. Judges should not have this power. taxpolicy.org.uk/2026/11/07/r...

Russell Brand’s secret injunction: the order that silenced his accuser

The never-published High Court order Russell Brand won in 2015: a lifelong gag on his accuser, Sylvie Berki, that bars her even from speaking to the police.

I still think it’s wild how quickly these monstrosities popped up all over the world and immediately blighted the earth. We get told how difficult it is to build anything beneficial to communities but these things are good to go in a few months. It really amplifies the amount of bullshit we get fed

My point is EVERY woman you've ever met has one of these stories and it's probably not even in the top ten of this sort of shit that's happened to her from creeps. I know it isn't for me.
