Sky’s Sophy Ridge on the Russell Brand story is 90 seconds very well spent

Of all the responses to the developing Russell Brand story, this one feels particularly important.

Brand faces accusations of rape and sexual assault said to be from a period between 2006 and 2013 – all of which he has since denied.

This is Sky News presenter Sophy Ridge giving her particular take and it’s 90 seconds very well spent.

I don’t know what happened with Russell Brand. He denies criminality.

But I DO understand why women might not report rape to the police
