Read the original article on metro.co.uk (opens in a new tab)Metro reports that Labour MPs shouted 'shame' at Kemi Badenoch at Prime Minister's Questions after she mocked Ed Miliband's 2015 interview with Russell Brand. It attributes her remark to her, gives Miliband's own regret and his statement that he did not know of the allegations, and adds Downing Street's response. Nothing in it misleads the reader.
“he was sentenced to 10 years and six months in prison after being convicted of rape and three sexual assaults”
Metro states Brand's crimes plainly as rape and sexual assault, with the sentence and the conviction, and no softening words.
“I was not aware of those allegations at the time about Russell Brand – I wouldn’t have done that interview and I regret doing it.”
Metro gives the target of the attack his own words, so the reader learns he says he did not know of the allegations, rather than leaving Badenoch's jibe unanswered.
“Miliband himself was not in the chamber, as he was attending the Cop31 climate talks in Antalya, Turkey.”
Metro tells the reader that the person attacked was not there to reply, which is fair context for the exchange.
