Russell Brand was jailed for 10 and a half years for raping a woman and sexually assaulting three others, and Labour's deputy leader Lucy Powell has called his barrister's cross-examination of the victims — suggesting they must not have been attacked because none 'resisted or screamed or even tried to leave' — shocking and depressing. Powell said she thought the courts had long gone past that culture, regrets Ed Miliband's 2015 interview with Brand, and says more must be done on victim-blaming.
