[News] Huw Edwards

[Live by the sea]

Seems like there’s more stuff to come out , apparently even his own colleagues at the BBC weren’t happy with some of his behaviour towards some of the younger female staff .

Yes he may well have problems with his mental health but I don’t think it’s great that he’s left his wife to deal with all this .

As we Americans would say , Man up .

I’m not being unsympathetic to his issues but millions of soldiers went through far worse in various wars seeing their colleagues killed in front of them and they had to get on with it , they couldn’t ask to be hospitalised because it was effecting their mental health .

Yes mental health is a big issue and it’s good that people and organisations are much more aware of it but unfortunately it seems to be like many things in England it has been taken to the extreme by some people as a means of shirking responsibility for one’s actions.

The timing of going into hospital as soon as this story broke is very convenient that’s what I’m saying .

My lips are sealed.

Terry Hall?

With all due respect - your country has incidents of teenagers shooting other kids at school very regularly. I’m not sure we need ‘mental health’ advice from your basket case of a country.

Also walk round any American city and you see a huge mental health problem not being dealt with

I agree , there are lots of people that do need help and have extreme issues . That doesn’t mean everyone.

Voices of the First World War: Shell Shock

Episode 33: The First World War was the first time that the psychological trauma of warfare was formally recognised both by doctors and society at large. The condition became known as ‘shell shock’. Hear about the varying experiences of the men who suffered the condition.

One word makes it clear that what follows is idle speculation...

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Terry Hall?

Certainly not.

I would say who but then the person who told me the story's identity might be determinable.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Kelvin Mackenzie (I know) has waded in with his size 10s, confirming it was a male, whilst trying to take the moral high ground for the Sun.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Well colour me stunned

So maybe they line about not getting any money from The Sun was true. Other bits of the empire? Not so much...

it called the dogs of schofield so expect to see similar tactics used with other questionable types

Nicky Campbell the other morning allowed C@ntin McKenzie to be a guest with his pro Scum agenda.

A key party to the orchestrated lies against the Hillsborough dead, and sustained for years afterwards.

I put him on a par with Bill Archer.

 

[Si Gull]

urgh

Urgh indeed. 'Man up!' is probably what they say just as they're about to blow your head off with their legally held (for self defence, of course) weapon.

Apparently, Dan Whooton is missing in action.

I haven't opened a copy since they were famous for being proud of coercing young women to take their clothes off for money.

 

[Billy the Fish]

Not commented on this yet as it was so unclear as to what's actually gone on.

As far as I can tell Hew has paid a load of money to some lad on Onlyfans, and tried to meet them. This just stinks of the parents of the other party trying to cash in on the schofield situation. Onlyfans exists to sell content, there's no case to answer.

I think people are conflating details of schofield with this, it's muddied the waters IMHO. Schofield had a case to answer because of the grooming element. In this case I can't see that it's anyone's business what Hew or an adult content provider spends their money on.

 

[Beanstalk]

urgh

Yeah, I thought we'd moved past the very very very basic entry phrase for fragile masculinity, but clearly wrong. Even in the context of the post, where the poster feels that Edwards has hidden behind his wife and mental health, that the man has been hospitalised it is wild that the poster expects him to just get up and get on with it instead. Regardless of your thoughts on this "situation" surely we've learned by now that mental health is not something you can just "man up" about?

 

[Billy the Fish]

Putting this on a separe post because it'll get jumped on I'm sure.

It's interesting that all of our resident addicts of left wing twitter have taken exactly the same line on this subject as they did on the schofield thread i.e turning it into into some kind of left v right thing without taking into account the subject matter. They haven't got an original thought in their heads.

Even if the parents received no money, out of a parents understandable angst about their loved one having a Cocaine habit, they're thrashing around looking to blame and destroy someone else.
