I found this part surprising:
He has also established himself as a wellness guru.
Russell Brand... Why is that name familiar?
He used to be in movies I guess, he turned rapist once he got outed by the news. Then he pivoted right wing, naturally as a way to shield himself from criticism

after a police investigation into allegations made following the broadcast of a Channel 4 documentary
"The Crown Prosecution Service reminds everyone that criminal proceedings are active, and the defendant has the right to a fair trial.
Were the allegations not brought to the police before the tv documentary? Why didn't the police investigate before? If so there should be an investigation and prosecution of those involved in the "non-investigation".
This failure to investigate is an outrage, many people including me listened to Russel Brand in the 2010s, but the police failed to investigate and now has the gall to say "the defendant has a right to a fair trial"? Does the public not also have a right to a fail investigation and prosecution?
Were the allegations not brought to the police before the tv documentary?
I might be speaking out of my ass here, but it could be that the allegations were brought to the police first, but there wasn't enough evidence at the time for the police to file charges, and then the documentary investigation turned up more evidence than the police had.

I'm shocked, I tell you, shocked.
Again?
But he's always seemed so sane and stable?
Certainly not the type of guy they would write a movie about an unstable, unpredictable, impulsive, and self centered rock star with him in mind to play the lead.

Charged with rape again, right? Didn't we-the-people already cancel this idiot once?
This is the guy we should be deporting.
Wealthy immigrant accused of rape and spewing lies at every turn? Deport him? They going to offer him a job leading what ever department he wants to demolish. Probably justice.
He's getting the Trump Gold Card that was announced, not getting deported. That card is just a call for the world's shadiest people to relocate to the US. Perfect, what could go wrong?!
I've been thinking for a while that people that have a sudden right wing or andrew tate sphere turn are really just trying to get with like minded rapist, or whatever they're into, circles. Basically networking and putting out signals.
Its always the ones you expect
