Charged is not the same as convicted. I will reserve judgement.

[TonyV]

PP he has just been charged, not convicted. I would keep your powder dry for the time being.

[TonyV]

maggiebee great minds think alike lol.

[Tashi]

You appear to be saying he is guilty before he has been to Court PP.

[TonyV]

Tashi other thing is that CPS have not even decided yet if a court case is answerable.

I'll follow the advice of the CPS as given in the article and wait and see.

“The CPS reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against Mr Elphicke are now active and that he has a right to a fair trial. It is extremely important that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings.”

According to the article he has been charged and will appear before a Magistrates Court.Seems to me that they think the case is answerable.
