Read the original article on inews.co.uk (opens in a new tab)Isabel Hardman's column argues that Nigel Farage attacks Labour over Ed Miliband's 2015 interview with Russell Brand while having appeared on Brand's podcast himself in 2024. It goes on to argue that Westminster treats misogyny as normal. Its checkable facts match the coverage of the same event, and nothing in it misleads the reader on any ground an opinion piece is judged on.
Opinion piece: read for false claims of fact and for fairness to the people it names, not for its opinions.
“nine months after police began investigating the comedian over allegations of sexual assault (but before he was charged)”
The column gives the timeline exactly as other outlets reported it. It also separates an investigation from a charge, so Farage's appearance is not overstated.
“Brand’s conviction for rape and three counts of sexual assault”
It names the crimes Brand was convicted of in plain words, matching the court outcome reported elsewhere, instead of softening them to "misconduct" or "allegations".
