That's a good indicator of how fcuked up the status quo is. Brand, of all people, calls for an ill-defined revolution and the press immediately target him like he's a threat. The same way they targeted the Lib Dems when it looked like they might hold the balance of power before the coalition.

He's an idiot. He's got no right to do that regardless of how he tries to justify it. If they put his phone number on the front of their paper he'd have apoplexy and probably sue but he's got more twitter followers than any newspaper has readers, so how is what he's done any better? And some people on twitter are downright [LIFTED] crazy into the bargain. He's basically just validated whatever happens to that journo.

Whatever moral superiority he ever assumed/claimed he had over the gutter press has just gone completely out the window.

I have no love of tabloid journalists at all, but that is simply inexcusable.

I'm becoming increasingly tired of his 'do what I say, not what I do' schtick.
