@@pip1723he was a senior presenter and should at least have good morals which he clearly does not have and the public is paying his huge salary. I certainly think the public should know.
The memory wanes as you get a little older, I believe. You become more centred, more focussed …. on yourself . Tom is bigging himself up as a second rate Douglas Murray !
The police are saying no crime, but what the police always mean is they do not have sufficient physical/witness evidence to prove a crime should the accused plead not guilty. It looks very like the guy with the £35k doesn't want to assist the police.
That guy presumably has a drug and possibly his own mental health problems , and too young to know what to do. We’re they not 2 consenting adults ? Were the pics taken when the boy was not an adult?
The police could investigate without the potential victim cooperating, if these photos go back to when they were 17 and were sent online then the evidence will be there for them to prosecute. It's the crown who prosecutes not the victim. Unless they don't want to investigate, in which case they won't find any evidence which might be there. And to be fair to all sides, a proper investigation if Edwards was innocent would clear his name.
This doesn't, to me, have anything to do with age of consent but a charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, which he certainly was to age 18. In such cases it's not unusual for the minor to not cooperate, nor is it necessary for them to do so if there is a criminal investigation/ charge involved. How could it not be illegal to either incite to produce or purchase pornography from a l7 yr. old on the net? Is it likely The Sun DIDN'T take legal council who then DIDN'T review their proofs add the third mistake of the parents either lied or had no evidence. Comparison to Jimmy Savile keeps coming up.
7 new allegations of Huw's behavior towards colleages have surfaces. This case is quite Similar with Philip Scofield and somehow Hue is portrayed as innocent
I've heard more than enough about "poor" Huw Edwards's depression and mental health problems. Media outlets taking a soft approach to one of their own is all I see, added to the BBC covering its own ass first. Nigel Evans, Cliff Richard, Bill Roache et al didn't get this kid glove treatment.
So they can extort money from us. It's not News.. Its a secret club of degenerates. The victims are what matter. Such arrogance is disgusting. Yes evidence is coming. These Elites all benefit from this institution.
He had been receiving help for his mental health for some number of years all this has now caused a mental breakdown, it sounds to me as if he never wanted his sexuality to come out obviously bi sexual but the Police say no criminality here so where do we go from here no where until he is well enough to speak for himself
What is disgusting is the privatisation of Thames Water and the fact that incompetent management will mean that the public will have to pick up the multi billion pound tab
I like Tom Bower, a very intelligent man and when ever is interviewed is ALWAYS shown respect because the interviewer knows full well he knows what he is talking about. Spot on about the decline of the BBC.
Tom Bower gets things wrong these days because he's elderly and stubborn, he refuses to see situations any other way than how he wishes to narrate them; he has been told "yes, sir Tom," and kowtowed to for so long because of his connections with the Palaces that he blinded by his own arrogance. The man is fallible, and his aging "intelligence" is corrupted by stubborn hubris.
@@Bernaren60 add to that another 3 young men have come forward claiming similar or the same allegations. For all you or I or anyone else knows there are more who are going to come forward, some of whom may push Huw into criminal activity. The Sun whether you like it or not had a duty to give the family a voice, especially given the fact the BBC did NOTHING for 8 weeks! Given they have a history of covering up their behaviour or their stars, it was absolutely in the public interest that this became public. Ask yourself this, if it was your 17 year old he'd been contacting, and paying for photos, what would you have done? If you turned on the news and kept seeing the man who took advantage of your son, or daughter, despite the fact you'd made and official complaint....again to the same company that has covered up multiple scandals of it's staff. Bet you wouldn't be sat saying what you are would ya?
What it reveals to me is the fundamental celebrity power that anyone in radio or TV can wield over an admiring public. One only has to witness the fawning accolades given to anyone who says they are "in TV" to realise the potential for giving in to the overpowering urges of power and sex constantly on offer. Heaven only knows what the history of many a rockstar might be.
Surely, if Huw Edwards was entirely innocent he would immediately be on TV vigorously defending himself and preparing a very strong case for defamation.
I agree with your guest as the BBC have followed the sun on this as it never should have been out there in the 1st place Well done the press for killing another presenters career for nothing
@@fionagregory9147 If he was a drug taker then he was vulnerable and needy and it is he who has the mental health issue and this would have been clear presumably from talking with him.
@@T5Zplayer Don’t need it. I don’t take advantage of people under 18. Schofield might have a spare one for you though. Also I’m not making any criminal accusations. HE was in the public eye and presented himself as a moral person. His morals hardly matched that in real life, especially what he reported on. The BBC seem to be full of scandalous cretins living on public money so he should be looked into fully. If he does have indecent images of a 17 yo, that’s illegal. No smoke without fire as the saying goes.
Most people suffering severe depression have to tough it out at home, or on the street. In this case Mr. Edwards has been confined to hospital. With such a shortage of hospital beds now, am certain there are patients with certifiable maladies or injuries who could be making good use of the one he is occupying, apparently for as long as he feels unwell.
Tim Daley was the wrong choice for the job, and now it has became clear that there is nobody in the running who is going to be the right choice for the job.
As Jom Davidson said on this channel. If it was a bin man caught in this compromising situation, would his district council employer be culpable? No. So why should the BBC be responsible for one of their emotes kinks?
Because he's a public figure on a huge salary who is extremely hypocritical (devout christian, attends church every week) and he is not allowed to bring his employer into disrepute, his contract of employment will look very different from that of a bin man...duh.
Surely, innocent until proven guilty must apply. We know nothing of the circumstances, huws mental health, why the mother accepted all this money before publicly making accusations, rushing to judgement is never a good idea!
If he hired and paid online to an OF sxx worker, there’s no naive victim. Silly behaviour of a horny old man, but no grooming of a naive innocent. the younger person was on an adult content sales site, which they joined themselves, and set up payments.
People in the public eye or in powerful positions and paid huge amounts of money should be held to a higher standard of behaviour. Time we stopped putting popular or famous people on a pedestal. We as humans need to have people we can look up to and trust. So easy when the standard of behaviour revealed is below moral and decent then mental health, vulnerability and private life behaviour is to be accepted by the public as an excuse.
@@jackiemartin9737 Hmmmm..............Edwards is just a BBC journalist...........and I havent seen anything criminal, homosexual behaviour maybe, but that is not a crime.
Such compassion for a creepy immoral hypocrite is heartwarming. Let’s have such compassionate forgiveness and support for anyone else in the public eye and service who does something equally interesting in their private life! I did not notice this happening for the wife of the MP who killed herself as a result of allegations. The BBC and immoral middle aged white men sorority is up and running! It was ever thus. Very effective. Will we be seeing Huw back on our screens soon? I hope not!
They only seem to think about television, what about the wireless (radio), drama, orchestras and choirs? Was Edwards the 'Senior Announcer'? " This is the BBC from London, a message from Broadcasting House has just announced the death of the BBC " cue solemn music. Television (which I can't watch) on all channels has become obsessed with celebrity and award ceremonies.
Any parent of a seventeen year old can tell you that their child does not yet have either the decision-making capacity or resilience of an adult. In this case, there is the added complication of drug addiction, which greatly increased both the vulnerability and suggestibility of this young person. Tom Bower has said here that, because this was not illegal, it is essentially none of our business and that Huw Edwards career should be unaffected. However, we have a situation here where a man in his late 50's paid a vulnerable youth who was young enough to be his grandchild for sexually explicit photos. That is sleazy and immoral behaviour that most people would find reprehensible. The reason why it is a matter of public interest is that we are forced, by law, to fund Huw Edwards' huge salary. The fact that he has been the anchor of the BBC''s coverage of all recent major events, including the Queen's funeral and the coronation also gave him an enormous amount of soft power. If he behaves like this in private, the people who pay for him and are expected to believe everything he says have an absolute right to know. Tom Bower and every other commentator who have said '...it wasn't illegal...', as if that somehow makes everything alright, should be ashamed of themselves.
Gb will lose my support if they continue to defend this. Disgusting behaviour. And if they think I believe he just sat around discussing the weather till he was 18, well. Just happens Skype or whatever doesn't record.
Why has this become a scandal ? He met on a dating site where you have to be 18 years . The 17 I'm assume was a drug user prior to his interaction with Hew, his mother went to the news paper instead of Police so what was her motive ? . People are killing themselves daily due to this form if bullying . His private life is nothing to do with anyone else
that stuff about dating site and drugs is speculation, unless/until the sun shows some evidence to support any of what they've said which they've yet to do. the sun carefully concealled his id; any 'bullying' took place elsewhere, especially online and also from sniveling moaners like campbell, vine and co who, despite being paid a packet for their 'pains', can't take a bit of virtual agro
His private life is now revealed and he's a dirty old pervert. If it was someone like Nigel Farage all media including the BBC would be relishing in it.
@@ChildofGod-g8fAccording to Private Eye magazine DW bullied and was s*xually harassing younger male colleagues when working for a tabloid. Then this morning ,his ex boyfriend wrote a lengthy Twitter thread accusing DW of seriously disgusting behaviour including illegally recording two male colleagues having s*x.
I follow this channel but after a lot of personal deliberation, what has he actually done wrong? Apart from possibly deceiving his wife and maybe low moral values, has he broken any laws?
the allegation is he has been helping to fund a young man's crack cocaine habit by giving him £35k over the past three years in exchange for compromising pictures. If there's any truth in it, it's terrible behaviour even if he's not broken the law.
@@ChildofGod-g8f something about moral standards and taking advantage of a vulnerable person who possibly had his own mental health problems . Not sure whether the photos were taken before he was 18 or not. Other people in public service get skinned issues that are personal and between consenting adults. Never seen so many middle aged white guys riding to the rescue
And the winner is 🏆 GBNEWS, i have ten RUclipsrs from around the world that keep me posted on the latest news and you were the first to let me know hue Edwards was the (bleeeep) . Many thanks 👍🎉
They were not children. They were willing participants. It was his money to do with what he will. Simple, he cheated on his wife. Ergo its a family problem. I have not had any exposure to him at all, but my real and objective opinion.
Mr. Edwards will be vastly missed by those who don't appreciate ambulance chasing cavalier jurnos and readers with too much makeup on. I don't believe he will return to television.
It used to be 'affairs' with younger women - apparently, mid life crises go online for sex with teens, perhaps other sexes.... strange needs ppl have...

If he hasn’t done anything wrong why is he so depressed ?
Tom Bowers talking about something else other than Harry and Meghan who knew 😅
Gb will lose my support if they continue to defend this. Disgusting behaviour. And if they think I believe he just sat around discussing the weather till he was 18, well. Just happens Skype or whatever doesn't record.
Why isnt ITV still being slated has that been forgotten?
Transparency is futile in this Demon infested world!
Where's Wootton 😂
Dunno. Ask Martin Branning…
He will be back next week. On holiday in New Zealand at present.
@@sketchbambam5693IYKYK 😉😂
Why has this become a scandal ? He met on a dating site where you have to be 18 years . The 17 I'm assume was a drug user prior to his interaction with Hew, his mother went to the news paper instead of Police so what was her motive ? . People are killing themselves daily due to this form if bullying . His private life is nothing to do with anyone else
that stuff about dating site and drugs is speculation, unless/until the sun shows some evidence to support any of what they've said which they've yet to do. the sun carefully concealled his id; any 'bullying' took place elsewhere, especially online and also from sniveling moaners like campbell, vine and co who, despite being paid a packet for their 'pains', can't take a bit of virtual agro
Police cover things up, remember Muslim rape gangs? Good on the mum for going public, I'd do the same if it was my child.
His private life is now revealed and he's a dirty old pervert. If it was someone like Nigel Farage all media including the BBC would be relishing in it.
Ass long as people keep paying thier licences the managers of the bbc will be faceless.
Turning off GB news thought GB was going to be different???
What?
@googlekillsfreespeech4370 A certain someone is missing. Trending on twitter. Many allegations against him.
Full salary and all health benefits paid up till pension yes or no..... come on tom it may not illegal.....but is it morally right
Absolutely! Not to mention creepy, but then Tom lived in the golden age when such matters went past with a nod and a wink to a blind bat!
GBNews need to look at their own staff, we all know now.
What?
What?
Great to see Dan Wootton acting in line with Gbeebies values…
What's he supposed to have done?
Dan is on holiday but back next week.
@@ChildofGod-g8fAccording to Private Eye magazine DW bullied and was s*xually harassing younger male colleagues when working for a tabloid. Then this morning ,his ex boyfriend wrote a lengthy Twitter thread accusing DW of seriously disgusting behaviour including illegally recording two male colleagues having s*x.
Will GB news re-employ Dan Wooton, and are they publicly investigating the luridcallegatioms if his ex-partner Alex??
@@africareigns 😂 The Markle claws are growing ever long!
If you don't want to be judged, stop virtue signalling!
No comment on Dan Wootton then? Shocker, hypocrites.
What did he do??
@@ChildofGod-g8fHe's a conservative... the worst of all crimes 🙄
Dan Wootton is my favourite presenter on GBNews and he also has great teeth.
@@scottbrower9052 Wrong, that's not what I'm thinking or talking about at all. I guess you haven't seen the allegations yet, but you will soon.
@@Melanie_Star So you know all about some scandal involving Dan. Then let's hear the details, sweetheart, since you're so dialed in.
BBC is not responsible for one employee's private life.
Gosh, a voice of sanity in the wilderness.
Good point. Except he can be classed as a civil servant l suppose. That's debatable though.
Everyone knew what Saville did inside the BBC
They are not responsible....at all.
It's not one though is it. It's a waste of money. A big money pit for all the top brass.
I follow this channel but after a lot of personal deliberation, what has he actually done wrong? Apart from possibly deceiving his wife and maybe low moral values, has he broken any laws?
Oh it’s ok then 🙈
the allegation is he has been helping to fund a young man's crack cocaine habit by giving him £35k over the past three years in exchange for compromising pictures. If there's any truth in it, it's terrible behaviour even if he's not broken the law.
Maybe not illegal but definitely immoral.
If it's not illegal it's none of our business ....
@@gw2891 No, I never said nor implied that!
Tim Davie, how complex is it that a highly paid presenter paid public money for dic pix on the public dime while you did everything to suppress it?
Hey guys,where's Dan?
One of their own at GBN is surrounded by allegations. Suspiciously quiet about this. 🤫
They have lost their patience.
All the intellectuals around the world now need to unite.
Another one trying to defend Huw Edwards ? Jeez .. some moral compass these people have .. "it's not illegal, so carry on!".
Don't know him at all. But if they're of legal consenting age at best he's guilty of infidelity. That's simply objective.
Thanks for spelling his name properly unlike most people.
@@ChildofGod-g8f something about moral standards and taking advantage of a vulnerable person who possibly had his own mental health problems . Not sure whether the photos were taken before he was 18 or not. Other people in public service get skinned issues that are personal and between consenting adults. Never seen so many middle aged white guys riding to the rescue
And the winner is 🏆 GBNEWS, i have ten RUclipsrs from around the world that keep me posted on the latest news and you were the first to let me know hue Edwards was the (bleeeep) . Many thanks 👍🎉
This man just suggested that he isn't human.
They were not children. They were willing participants. It was his money to do with what he will. Simple, he cheated on his wife. Ergo its a family problem. I have not had any exposure to him at all, but my real and objective opinion.
We don't know that he actually had any kind of relationship with the young man in question - it seems to have just been pics.
Porn under 18 is child porn it's against the child protection act
What about dj Tim Westwood ex bbc star questioned again today over allegations
I really really cannot listen to this "HYPOCRITE" Tom whatever his name is.
No one seen tictok at GB news ?
They are all pissing in the same pot ,the pot we paid for .
Yeah but Tom you have sold your soul to GB News UK - so you know
Mr. Edwards will be vastly missed by those who don't appreciate ambulance chasing cavalier jurnos and readers with too much makeup on.
I don't believe he will return to television.
Yup! I too have appreciated the mask he was wearing !
It used to be 'affairs' with younger women - apparently, mid life crises go online for sex with teens, perhaps other sexes.... strange needs ppl have...
I’ve not paid the license for years. My life is no worse for that!
Well.. I mean.. you watch gb news on RUclips.. Kinda suggests your life is pretty empty
@@seanjones180 speak for yourself
@@seanjones180 Nah, it's good stuff.
Mr. Bower has really lost all my respect, why is everybody on Edwards ‘side’? There are four young people who are ‘suffering’ because of all this. Sorry I cannot listen to this anymore. I really thought GB news were more than this?
they are; they interviews wide range of people with differing views, bower being but one
Well. This didn't age well.
Alastair Bruce is definitely fantastic at the royal events
Huw Edwards a saint according to Bower?? I think it’s just bad journalism Dear Tom
Where's your Dan Wooten... tweet tweet
On holiday in New Zealand.
