‘It’s insulting’: Emma Barnett speaks to one of Russell Brand’s accusers

Speaking for the first time since accusations became public, 'Alice', who has accused Russell Brand of sexual assault when she was a teenager, told Emma Barnett on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour that Brand's emphatic denial of the allegations of rape and sexual abuse against him was "insulting".

'Alice’, who had a relationship with Brand when she was 16 and he was 30, says she wants to start a conversation about changing the age of consent.

*‘Alice’ is not her real name and she is voiced by an actor.
