    ^ Don't forget that his wages are paid by the public purse, same as any poltician. A lot of people want to know how their taxes are being spent.

    But yet there is no possibilty to vote in/out BBC staff, they are enforced on us. I think that changes things.

    Chitty's attitude to lawbreakers seems very inconsistent.

    The full list of allegations against Huw Edwards

    BBC presenter has been accused of sending cash to a vulnerable teenager in exchange for explicit pictures

    By
    Telegraph Reporters
    13 July 2023 • 7:45am


    Two BBC employees, one current and one former, have become the latest to come forward with allegations against BBC presenter Huw Edwards after his identity was revealed by his wife on Wednesday.

    BBC Newsnight reported new claims from staff members who said they had received “inappropriate messages” from Edwards, “some late at night and signed off with kisses”.

    Both said there was “a reluctance among junior staff to complain to managers about the conduct of high-profile colleagues in case it adversely affected their careers,” Newsnight said.

    The allegations are the latest aimed at the BBC’s highest-paid journalist who is receiving in-patient hospital care for “serious mental health issues”.

    After Edwards was named as the presenter at the centre of the allegations, multiple BBC colleagues and high-profile media personalities spoke out to support him.

    The Sun originally published claims by the parents of a concerned youth, who said a household name had paid their vulnerable child thousands of pounds for explicit pictures.


    Since then, a lawyer for the young person said this was “rubbish” and insisted nothing unlawful had happened.

    In the days since, three other young people have come forward in the press to make allegations about the presenter, who has not been named.

    1. Teenager ‘used presenter’s cash to fund drug addiction’
    On Saturday, July 8, The Sun published an anonymous interview with the mother and stepfather of an apparently vulnerable youth who had been exchanging messages with the unnamed BBC presenter.

    The parents alleged that their child was 17 when the relationship started and had been sent £35,000 over a three-year period for explicit images. But on Monday, a lawyer acting on the young person’s behalf denied these claims.

    2. Young person ‘felt threatened by abusive messages’
    A second individual, understood to be in their 20s, claimed to BBC News that they had made contact with the unnamed presenter through a dating app. At the time they did not know who he was.

    The young person said they felt pressured to meet up with him but never did. When they hinted online that they had contact with the presenter and may name him, he is claimed to have sent them abusive messages.

    The BBC claimed it had “seen and verified” the chat.

    3. Presenter ‘broke lockdown rules to meet youth’
    A third young person came forward to claim in The Sun that the BBC presenter allegedly broke lockdown rules to meet with him.

    It was claimed that a 23-year-old travelled across London to another county to meet them at their flat in February 2021 after first meeting on a dating site the previous year.

    It was also claimed that on the day of the alleged hour-long meeting, during which the unnamed presenter and the 23-year-old “just chatted”, the presenter sent a gift of £250 to a PayPal account. The Sun claims two other payments of £200 and £250 were made afterwards.

    4. Presenter ‘sent creepy Instagram messages’ to teenager
    A fourth young person claims they were contacted on Instagram by the unnamed presenter, who sent love hearts and ‘x’ kisses, it is claimed in The Sun.

    The unnamed fourth person, who said they were 17 at the time, called the messages “creepy”, “looking back now”. They said they were “taken aback” by the sending of a love heart emoji.

    DAILY TELEGRAPH
    as the philip schofield meme i posted illustrated, the bbc and his employee funded lawyers got together to discuss damage limitation tactics and advised the hypocritical perv to quickly check into a madhouse and claim severe depression and let his poor wife face the press, whilst he conveniently plays the hard done to victim and disappears from view. what a fucking coward. he certainly wasnt seriously depressed 6 days ago presenting the coronation ceremony in scotland to viewers.

    meanwhile he has just (2 days ago) been awarded a huge pay rise that will conveniently fund his already wallet bursting pension, all at the publics expense.

    fuck him. he is no better than jeffrey epstein, using his position and his wealth to exert influence over those lower down the pecking order.

    From what I've read he's basically signed up to an OnlyFans of a 17+ year old. Pervert yes, should he be ripped to shreds on the internet? Yes. Lose his job? Well he's not going to be taken very seriously ever again so maybe.

    But not illegal*

    I don't think anyone gives a flying fuck about farage, but if a sitting prime minister was in a position of vulnerability like this, I'd expect any British news service to be all over it like a cheap suit.

    Huw Edwards felt "very angry" and "very let down" by the media coverage of the allegations, his former colleague Jon Sopel has said.

    Speaking to ITV's Good Morning Britain, Sopel - who was until recently the BBC's North America editor, said he had been in touch with Edwards before he was hospitalised.

    "He was very angry, I think felt very let down by what happened in the Sun, furious with their coverage, not overly impressed with the BBC's coverage either."

    Sopel also said coverage of the allegations "got ugly", adding: "I think it became a feeding frenzy. I think it was a competition to see who could go further the fastest."

    Those unfamiliar with British culture may have been left wondering how a story about a 61-year-old news presenter could create such a huge media frenzy.

    As the BBC's most senior news anchor, Edwards has been a fixture of some of the UK's most historic national moments, such as announcing the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

    Now questions have been raised about his conduct, following five days of speculation and mounting claims published across Britain's media - including by colleagues at BBC News.

    For those of you reading outside the UK, here's an article explaining it all - Huw Edwards and the media scandal gripping the UK.

    Sky news was all over it until today when he was named and the cops said nothing illegal. A quick mention and then it was onto mortgages.

    Still didn't mention Boris's missing WhatsApp messages though...

    Well, good at 'diverting' the fkin morons, anyway.

    It doesn't seem to take much, just combine 'BBC' or 'Labour politician' and 'paedophile' and you're pinging all week.
