David Walliams #2

I thought he was. I thought that was why the judge was happy to refuse the injunction. As he was under the appropriate care to prevent him doing so.

No it was because he tried to use laws which were intended to protect people from torture. It also sets a horrible precedent. Imagine if every single person who committed horrible crimes could just say they’d kill themselves if the allegations were made public and that would make them go away.

I mentioned this on the russell brand thread but I’ve been listening to the private eye podcast in the car (didn’t know they did one) and the episode called hot cheeks and cheesecake covers it and is really worth a listen to understand the legalities. Also very good on understanding the AI risk to the internet!

We’ll have to ask Bob lol

There were also reports of them being seen kissing in clubs.

Noel Fielding given Mighty Boot by Pixie Geldof and comedy festival

Spare a thought for Mighty Boosh comedian Noel Fielding, who has lost a girlfriend and a festival in just a week. It was revealed at the weekend that Noel had been dumped by his teenage love interest Pixie Geldof, so he'll no doubt be devastated to hear that he has also been dumped from the...

My son’s primary school has taken all of Walliams books off the shelves and they are in the skip at the back if anyone wants them. Charity shops round here don’t want them.

Any time I have been in a charity shop lately, I notice them on the shelves. I'd say people cleared them out, before last week, and the shops will presumably get rid now, into the bin.

Those poor girls were so let down by their parents

The Geldof girls appeared to have everything but in reality they had nothing. I will never envy the offspring of celebrities, they all seem to end up so damaged and unhappy.

No. The injunction was rejected because the judge wasn't prepared to open a door to every Russell, Huw and David to pull the "mental health" card out of the deck.

What Judge Nicklin did say was that if there was a risk, it was the responsibility of the facility he was in to ensure that he was safe and didn't harm himself. Had he not been in some sort of clinic (or whatever), the judge possibly would have made an order, or suggested that Walliams was assessed and if necessary sectioned (This last bit is my conjecture - I'm not sure what power a judge has regarding anything like this.)

Ah thank you! My mistake I knew the judge had mentioned the facility but couldn't remember in what capacity!

I could be wrong but I don't think they can really run away once an arrest or charge is issued. Gone are those days with so much international cooperation.

Wasn't Gary glitter forced to fly back as nowhere would accept him through their borders?

South east Asia and the UAE are very willing to deport these days. Maybe he'd be safe in Russia or Iran. But I can't see why either of those would offer him an invite.

It would be so hard for he to escape I'm guessing. , He would be recognised at airports, border control, im sure someone might mention who they saw "leaving the country". Interestingly the extradition treaty with Hong Kong was suspended six years ago. I think that's where I'd escape to.

Id be watching his bank accounts to see if he's sending money off shore. Though even with friends here in NZ, they have bank accounts in the Caymans

Ugh I’ve just had rage and messaged one of my boyfriends friends - they’re out playing electric darts and uploaded a pic of the scoreboard where they have called themselves Russell, David, Jimmy… I said I hope you don’t have a son or daughter one day who faces SA. Why are some men so indirectly complicit and still live within toxic masculinity and lad culture? I noticed my boyfriend used his actual name so I’ll let him off but still. MEN.

He would have to live the life of a fugitive I’m not sure he’s cut out for it! There’s lots of countries he could run to that wouldn’t extradite him.

He’ll go to the Philippines or Thailand, buy a secluded villa and have teenage girls on tap I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s already there.

We were just discussing those countries on another thread and the perverts that hang out there maybe he’ll get himself a ladyboy or two to add to the mix.

China doesn't have any extradition treaty with the UK, but that only applies to Chinese citizens. They'll deport a foreigner without a second thought.

Hong Kong is way too small IMO and only really works as a base if you can fly somewhere every other week. He couldn't do much there without being spotted.

A few years ago I would have said Cuba but life is pretty awful there at the moment.

Maybe Libya is looking like the most attractive option

I bet they're, "lovely guys", too, and they probably wouldn't harm anyone, but it's this kind of joke, and the chip chip of it being funny, and not particularly serious that means we're not taken seriously.
I'm sick of men like this.

I’m sure there’s plenty of hidey holes if the bungs right.
