Louise McSharry

When you hear this, you hear the meetings.

Yeah.

Well, you can hear him attempting to manipulate people, which is what he's really good at.

He's really good at manipulating an audience and he's really good at convincing people

Like his whole thing is like using big words, being really articulate and like manipulating people into believing various things about him.

You know, we're in like, I don't know, the third or fourth iteration of Russell Brand at this point.

And so he's good at this.

And it is like what he says is good, you know, because he does kind of... I don't disagree really with anything that he says.

Yeah.

But he leads like the... He leads with...

in Europe and the United Kingdom where I'm from the age of consent is 16.

So that's like the first thing he wants to establish is like that it was legal.

And then he says, yeah, you know, he accepts that it was exploitative and goes on.

And you watch the video and you can see that people who like want to be on side with him

would be like well he's owning it he's saying that yes you know it was legal but he he accepts that there was a power differential and that that does he knows now as a mature person he's 50 now by the way and that you know that fine yes it was wrong but like we need to remember that he remains accused of three counts of rape three charges of sexual assault and one allegation of indecent assault there are six different women alleging crimes

dating from 1999 to 2009.

He denies them all.

So like this kind of, you know, come to Jesus, pardon the pun, like I'm going to be honest and tell the truth thing.

It's only in relation to one situation where he had sex with a 16 year old and still like, it's gross.

Sorry.
