Russell Brand, once an award-winning comedian and Hollywood actor, has been sentenced to more than 10 years in prison for rape and sexual assault. The judge paid tribute to the ‘determination and bravery’ of the women who came forward in the case, and described Brand as a sexual predator of ‘staggering arrogance’. Police are investigating two further additional rape allegations and have urged all rape and sexual assault victims to report what happened, ‘no matter how long ago it occured’.

  • So if that's going to be a difficult lesson for you, perhaps skip this one.

  • You'd hope that this really encourages women to think if you can have justice

  • in a case like that, someone so powerful, so protected, then maybe I can have justice too.

  • They retain the right to say no and to demand justice from the criminal courts

  • when sexual predators like you, Ross Brand, act without their consent.

  • The events that Brand was charged with happened back in the noughties.

  • Here we are all these years later.

  • It's taken a long time to come to court, but it has come to court.
