Now, I'm the first to applaud Chuck Berry's contribution to Rock and Roll, but

This is no time to drag WES into the issue.

I find it hard to condemn a chap on the basis of a guess, though. The fart may have been entirely consensual.

Is he not entitled to be considered innocent until proven guilty?

Was Jimmy Savile?

If Berry is not to be criticised for his deviancy, I think we need to reassess the career of Sir Jingle-Jangle.

Different matter entirely if one is actually "in the moment", ain't it.

Talking of which, did you see Laurie Penny making an arse of herself of Twitter yesterday by suggesting that asian women are short and then being properly Twitch-trialled into abject apology for it? Hilarious, it was.
