At last!

Further details below but key quote

..... welcomed the charges and said: "Andrew and Tristan Tate are accused of some of the most serious offences, including multiple counts of rape and human trafficking. It is time they face justice

NotSpaghetti, as long as the brothers are held in custody, I'd be quite happy with a two year wait.

NotSpaghetti Tue 21-Jul-26 08:19:35

Could still take ip to 2 years!

The Tate brothers were hoping that Trump will support them as he has in the past but it seems the White House are distancing themselves from it all, as they should.

To know what sort of ‘men’ the Tates are you just need to know that Farage and Trump are supporters.

So true. That says it all!

On my Facebook feed, someone posted a photo of the older Tate dressed in a purple pedal pushers, a matching rugby style sweater split to half way to his waist and leather(?) loafers withut socks. Beside it they posted a photo of a fashion model in an identical outfit, right down to the shoes, obviously from some fashion shoot or magazine advert. The outfit looked so much better on the model.

It occurred to me that one of the ways of dealing with this obnoxious pair would be to laugh at them and make fun of them. If I had the knowhow, I would repost these matched photo with a comment like 'Looks better on a woman' or 'dressed like a lady'.

I would imagine that the one thing that would get under the skin of these nasty bits of whatever, would be make them objects of humour.

2 odious influencers of young men with their twisted misogynistic ideology. Lock 'em up and throw away the key.

According to their lawyer "They are both innocent of all charges."

Re my previous post, I was inaccurate. Mr Farage did not say that Mr Tate was a role model, he said that Mr Tate was " an important voice" for young men.

I suppose is easy is say things like this if you possess no moral compass whatsoever.

I agree with all here, vile creatures (not men) how they keep ‘escaping’ the law I can’t understand. They are such bad roles models for young growing lads, they are just so horrible words elude me without swearing

Tuliptree Mon 20-Jul-26 08:04:32

But the ‘bad decision ‘ re the photo was compounded by his praise of Andrew which is actually more damning.

Sorry GG13, my comment was somewhat obscure.
In March 2019 Farage was photographed with Andrew Tate when Farage made comments along the lines of 'great examples for young men'
🤢

OK 👍

The photo with a Tate and Nigel Farage was taken in 2019 and posted on the Tates website/Facebook with the caption Brexit Baby I guess that is why it didn’t come up in my Google search, as NF was not a MP at the time.

Bad decision for Nigel, as I imagine this photo will come back to haunt him.

I do hope that there will be a trial and these two get there just deserts

These two vile specimens are responsible for infecting so many young boys minds online with a terrible hatred of all girls and women as well as the heinous crimes they commit against girls and women.
They should have been imprisoned years ago but predictably misogynists in positions of power have let them walk free.

JaneJudge Mon 20-Jul-26 07:48:42

Great example for young men? 🤬

BlueBelle Mon 20-Jul-26 07:48:05

Farage was ( been quite recently) a fan

NotSpaghetti Mon 20-Jul-26 07:47:29

Did the White House end the Tate Brother's travel ban?

Humm - I still can’t find a reliable source on a photo but the quote is genuine

There are photos of at least one of them with Donald Trump Junior in 2017...
Can't find it as yet.

Here us Farage "mingling" though.

Chocolatelovinggran Mon 20-Jul-26 07:36:53

GrannyGravy, I think there are photographs of Mr Farage with one of these gentlemen. Mr Farage, I think, spoke of them as role models for young men, at that time.
Sadly, I agree with those who doubt that the extradition will happen, as Mr Trump is involved.

Tuliptree Mon 20-Jul-26 07:36:18

Farage called Andrew Tate ‘an important voice for men’. He appears to have been silent on the subject since and there are no authentic photos of them together . It will be interesting to see if they are extradited .

petra Mon 20-Jul-26 07:30:07

There’s not a cat in hells chance of him being extradited to the uk.
Everyone with power are swimming in the same cesspool as these two.

M0nica Mon 20-Jul-26 07:01:10

Its all very well arresting them. Several administrations in various countries have done this over the last few years, but when is one of the arresting authorities actually going to put them on trial?

This news was on most of the main news channels, but as I said, there are so many charges but, as yet no trials, that yet another set of charges isn't really news anymore.

Aren't they said to be heroes of the
manosphere?
With which British politician have they been photographed?

What a strange question 🤷‍♀️

According to Google there are no photos of the Tates with any U.K. MPs.

As they have been condemned repeatedly for their lifestyle, attitudes to women, bad influence over young boys along with the multitude of rapes, assaults, kidnappings etc., no right thinking person of any political persuasion in their right minds would want to be snapped with them 🤦‍♀️
