biblical it is:

Judas ( he is the villain reader) answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.

I thought it was 'is it I Abba?' BUT abba in this case means more dan " My farder" and I think is unsuitable for Judas' lips

er We do KNOW that the statue outside the beeb is BY Eric Gill and not OF Eric Gill innit?

Even at the time 1930s The moe-dellz who were posing for Gill knew what he was up to. He would of a day, sculpt whilst wearing a monks tunic.
" sat for Gill and got the full treatment" wrote one star. He had the habit whilst working of hitching up his monk's habit to reveal - ALL. Money involved I suppose

Zacs, strange and unfair as it seems you cannot libel a dead person. That's why so many 'shocking revelations' are published when the person has died and can't answer back

It is difficult to be surprised ... horrified once again yes. This degenerate organisation that imposes a compulsory tax on your access to on line, satellite, and digital TV is giving your hard earned to child abusers, and has sheltered and nurtured them for generations. It is time to remove the charter that they abuse. Another victim corrupted using public money.

Togo, no employer has a crystal ball.

[Togo]

Some turn a blind eye though. Protecting their own for decades, and playing holier than though. Meehh.

"‘ Author If only they would ban music by kiddie fiddler Michael Jackson’"

Michael Jackson was tried twice for this offence and cleared both times. He was also investigated by the FBI for ten years but was never convicted.

[Hopkirk]

An innocent man wouldn't pay out $200 million hush money.

Michael Jackson paid $200m to as many as 20 sexual assault victims http://dailym.ai/1PaxTrv via https://dailym.ai/android

Every huge organisation like the BBC, ITV, every police force, NHS, councils get complaints of inappropriate / negligent, criminal behaviour on a regular basis, the majority are crank or malicious.
It would be wrong for the employer to react with a knee jerk. It could be criminal to name them before they are either charged with a criminal offence or found liable in a disciplinary hearing.

[Zacs-Master]

Seriously, what's going on here, moderation wise?

[douglas9401]

I just hope it's not Fiona Bruce, I'd be gutted.

[fiveleaves]

If you name somebody on here and are wrong, you could be sued for thousands for defamation, so please don't

[Peter Pedant]

two threads on this
Beeb legal reporting still AWFUL

by 0700 they seem to have paid for decent advice and opened a discussion channel ( no names, no names) - wow! on the subject

naming and shaming BEFORE a charge has been in the supreme court 2022 - and you can't - - name someone under investigation

anyone seen the fly in the ointment?
this is not a police investigation
BUT
same principles probably apply

leading case is Bloomberg v XLC

[mushroom25]

i'm wondering if the "well known top star presenter" is only all of those things if you happen to live in the broadcast footprint of an obscure BBC regional radio station......

[retrocop]

I believe it is now a police investigation so less said the better methinks. ( Or less speculated perhaps)
