Met Police 'triaging' calls about Russell Brand following conviction

MP Dame Caroline Dinenage has re-iterated her concerns about the fact Brand was able to post videos online in the build-up to and during his trial to his millions of followers.

"This does continue to be an issue that he has made money throughout the process on his social media platform," she told BBC Breakfast.

"It just felt very odd that during the height of when there was a police investigation and some really serious allegations in the paper, that he was able to go online to his two and a half million followers, denying everything and putting his side of the story forward.
