Well.

Colour me surprised.

Might as well post this now, which I screen-capped from the BBC News homepage last week. A beautiful piece of accidental juxtaposition by the ‘most read’ panel about halfway down the page, which lasted an hour or so until they reduced it to top 5 stories only.

Incidentally, they haven’t just ‘closed’ their World of ~~Saville~~ Walliams, according to people posting on the various Towers fan forums they’ve gone round with a paint pot and thoroughly erased every last mention of him and his work from that corner of the park.

Seen so many "Tin Foil Hat" conspiracies over the few weeks and they are kicking up even more online at the moment.

The latest is "Labour and the Far Left" are removing as many "problematic white men" as possible as they don't want to be associated with them and their current views in the run up to an election.

Another I have seen getting put around is the likes of Brand and now Walliams (who's next?), are being used as distractions from the Rape Gangs etc because people would rather talk about "Celebs" than "illegal migrants" committing crimes.

Personally I think the guy is funny at times, other times he is a complete idiot and I couldn't care less about watching him on tv or not, he is not my cup of tea for a "Comedian" and some of the "Accusations" seem to be a little "weak" like one about him simply asking a women out to drinks, but because he was 10 years or more older than her, it's being labelled as "creepy and assault".

Now some of the others such as him apparently seeing someone and then practically stalking her to get her information from her agent is a bit of a "no, no" and he should know better.

On a personal note, this is why personally now, I refuse to speak to Women I do not know unless they speak to me first in front of people, I refuse to touch a Women I do not know again unless it's in front of other people, I refuse to be alone in a room with a Women I do not know and if I have no choice but to be in that room alone, I make sure I have my phone recording a video and if they don't like it, they can leave and send a man in.

I am not being accused of something just for a payday which unfortunately is what quite a few women these think they can get by accusing a man, without proof because we live in a messed up world where a women's word is worth more than a mans, and just the accusation is enough for a man to be found guilty and his life to be ruined.

I am don't want to take anything away from real victims they need to be supported etc, but the false accusation crowd and the "just talking to me is sexual assault and rape" crowd are not helping real victims and just making it harder for the real victims.

I wonder who will be next, Mr Blobby?

I saw the BBC even removed the episode of Doctor Who Walliams was in from iPlayer.

Yep just accusations is enough to ruin his reputation, although looking at some of the stuff coming out, it's not looking good for him, but again with men it's "Guilty" as soon as an accusation is made, and even if cleared of everything they are still Guilty.

I wonder why the women in hollywood and similar places never seem to get pulled for their actions, which some say are just as bad and sometimes worse?

Exactly. How the hell anyone in this sort of situation gets a fair trial is beyond me . No jury of his peers will be impartial
