There’s a difference between habitual sexual misconduct, and the severity of sexual assault that the DPP will bother prosecuting. Although some of his [alleged - if I must] offences are illegal, unless something even more serious turns up, Clarke’s criminal record will not take a hit. But it looks like the shitcunt will find it very hard to work again. Which will have to be satisfying enough.

If I read it correctly, there are witnesses that he had made secret recordings of “naked auditions”. That’s got to be enough in itself for a criminal record?

Do you think all revenge porn arseholes go to court? The upskirters?
And there is zero chance those videos Clarke made still exist.

Well, no I don’t. But ... yeah, you’re probably right.

Yep, it's a bingo card of predictable phrases, the sleb defence lawyers play book. It would have been a different bingo card 30 years ago, along the lines of 'jealous/vindictive women' 'destroying a man's reputation'. Sadly, the defence lawyers tend to revert to that bingo card even now, if cases make it to court.

His celebrity and the media spotlight mean that the priority won't be to close the file. And he's going to be lucky if, between twenty complainants, there is no evidence that can't be shrugged off.
Of course, he might be lucky, we'll just have to see.

Deleted his recent ITV series off my Sky box that I was looking forward to binging in one go. Disgusted someone I've liked/fancied for two decades is such piece of shit

putting up a hook to hang my hopes upon
"Take one excited, young, female journalist, keen to do a good job, and thrust her into the middle of a room filled with (mostly) powerful men, many of whom are treated – and so expect to be treated – like gods, and what you get next is entirely, sadly predictable."

You'll hear it less often if you stop listening to their attempts to extricate themselves from a situation of their own making

Fuck money. The lunatics in former charge brought fiat money to the brink of hyperinflation because they're idiots. It's the Britcoin now and decent and civilised people deserve to earn a decent wage for their hard work.

New currency mate. The notes and coins we have right now are terribly silly and are from the Jurassic era. Have been played offf the chessboards by crypto. The old notes and coins should be in museums.

Argonia I have you on ignore because you've been spouting an unreasonable amount of nonsensical bollocks lately, but all the people replying to you, confused, means I can't help but notice you're ploughing forward through this terrain of nonsense with real vigor.
I think you might need a break from the boards. Take care of yourself.

Thanks for the advice. Trying to take a break and get some sleep but keep getting lured into the gladiatorial arena for another thrust of the sword like Russell Crowe.
