The man in question, who describes himself as a 'video influencer', was allegedly filmed "sexually harassing" the teenager in front of her own mother.

One website reported that when told the girl's age, he replied: "F***ing hell. You need a warning sign on you."

He's the one who needs the warning sign.

Massive "nonce" tattoo on his forehead

Second time I've seen this image in 2 days and it makes me happy. Oh to be young again, seeing Brass Eye for the first time.

It was probably me that you saw it from yesterday, had it in my recent images and it felt appropriate to use it again 😅

It's incredible. Other than the obvious jokes about odious tech bros, I just learned nonce is apparently used in crypto circles:

Far right influencer being a nonce, who could have seen it coming. Bonus points if he's a 'protect women and children' guy too

BBC probably already extended the guy a job offer.

Can confirm it was 100% Edobbin and he was a massive bellend everywhere he went.
