After UK Defence Secretary Michael Fallon resigns after admitting to PM May that he touched up a journalists knee (dailymail.co.uk), the ongoing furore seemingly proves—if such proof was needed—it’s not just the heights of the entertainment industry “monsters” have climbed the greasy pole from which to perch and reach down for a grope:

More Tory MPs are named in the “dirty dossier” of alleged indiscretions as new sex claims emerge and the ENTIRE document is published in America (dailymail.co.uk).

“The full list of Tory MPs on a ‘dirty dossier’ of claims about their supposed sex lives has been published in the US. … The document, which was compiled Tory aides and leaked to the press following the Harvey Weinstein scandal, contains several serious accusations against the politicians.”

Said aroused Members of Parliament “sex lives” not always being indubitably consensual causing senior Tories to worry it could be more controversial than their expenses:

“Tonight, a woman who claims she was sexually assaulted by an MP during a work trip abroad accused Parliament of failing to act during an interview with ITV News. Zara (not her real name) told political correspondent Paul Brand that the MP forced himself on her in a hotel room despite her ‘making it clear’ it was not what she wanted.”

With most being male but 54-year-old Home Secretary Amber Rudd fingered by the list too, but suggestively only because:

“Home Secretary Amber Rudd was put on there only because she had a relationship with [42-year-old] Eton-educated Tory MP Kwasi Kwarteng after her divorce from AA Gill.”

Leading some perhaps to imagine that was a lot of tangled limbs and probing parts as both clambered up said greasy political pole.

With two Labour Party MPs also under investigation for groping (bbc.co.uk), seemingly the “Nasty Party” (Tories/Conservatives) concluding a randy goat with a whip must be sacrificed to make it all go away:

Tory MP Charlie Elphicke suspended after “serious allegations” (bbc.co.uk).

“Mr Elphicke, a former party whip who has been the MP for Dover since 2010, has denied any wrongdoing.”

The 46-year-old tweeting “The party tipped off the press before telling me of my suspension” and that “I am not aware of what the alleged claims are and deny any wrongdoing.”

“The party has not provided any further detail about the nature of the allegations, and did not reveal who had made a complaint about him.”

But likely worried if he too had made any comments to Andrea Leadsom about putting hands in a muff to warm them up: Michael Fallon quit “over lewd comments made to Andrea Leadsom” (theguardian.com).

“She is reported to have objected to lewd remarks he made at a parliamentary meeting six years ago. When Leadsom complained of cold hands, Fallon allegedly replied: ‘I know somewhere you can put them to warm up.’”

While for Kevin Spacey, after police decide to investigate sexual assault claims from his stint as artistic director at London’s Old Viv (theguardian.com), his house of (re-appropriated) fruity cards is tumbling down:

“Amid mounting concerns about the actor’s inappropriate behaviour, bosses at the streaming service have announced the leading man and producer, who played disgraced president Frank Underwood in the political drama, will no longer be part of the sixth and final season.”

With them also pulled the plug on Spacey’s upcoming movie Gore, currently in post-production.

With NYPD likely thinking up an operation name to rival Knacker Yard’s Cocklaw Kaguyak:

NYPD says it is building rape case against Harvey Weinstein (msn.com/Associated Press).

“New York City police said Friday that an actress’ rape allegations against Harvey Weinstein are credible, and if the movie mogul were in the state and the accusation more recent, they would move to arrest him immediately.”

Actress in question being Boardwalk Empire’s Paz de la Huerta who has accused Weinstein of raping her twice in her apartment in 2010.

Harvey Weinstein rape charges in Paz de la Huerta case ... highly unlikely (tmz.com).

“Law enforcement sources tell us there are problems with the case. The fact that it's more than 7 years old creates issues, including memory of events. Our sources say the case is made even more difficult by the fact that the actress had repeated interactions with Weinstein between the first and second alleged rape.”

With de la Huerta saying she told her therapist about the rapes but with law enforcement aware of a correspondence in which the therapist recollects the 2010 session but that “the therapist’s recollections do not show a lack of consent sufficient to prove rape”.

And it has emboldened others who, like Rose McGowan have long alleged abuse:

Corey Feldman on The Dr. Oz Show

Corey Feldman names two of his alleged sexual abusers (cbsnews.com).

“On ‘The Dr. Oz Show,’ Feldman named former co-star Jon Grissom and showed his photo on air, claiming the man sexually assaulted him in the 1980s.”

And phone Santa Barbara law enforement on air with OZ to officially report, then importantly clarifying later on Twitter that’s Jon Grissom, not John Grissom in effort to stop actor John with a h’s Twitter being overwelmed with vitual weekend pedophile hunter hate.

“Grissom is the second man Haim has named. On Monday, Feldman told Megyn Kelly on ‘Today’ that former child talent manager and convicted sex offender Marty Weiss was one of his former abusers.”

Grissom too being arrested in 2001 for child molestation charges for which he served time in 2003, but is now currently on the lam, despite still seemingly his Facebook and Myspace with pictures of him with Corey Feldman and the late Corey Haim still “taunts it and flaunts it”.

Updated 10th November 2017

With another friend of the late Corey Haim coming forward shortly after—albeit to the pay sources for tips National Enquirer, but picked up by most other tabloids and gossip sites too—to name name in a story the “it’s what all guys do” details of which were already much reported:

Charlie Sheen “categorically denies” raping 13-year-old Corey Haim on the set of the movie Lucas after claims made by a friend of the late child-actor (dailymail.co.uk).

“According to the National Enquirer, a now deceased Haim had told others about how he was allegedly raped as a minor by Sheen, who was 19 at the time, while filming the 1986 movie. Former actor Dominick Brascia claims Haim disclosed to him what happened between him and Sheen. Brascia went on the record about what he says Haim told him before he died in 2010 at 38-years-old. ”

With the now named Sheen, who “categorically denies” it—allegedly being the one who had “convinced him it was perfectly normal for older men and younger boys in the business to have sexual relations, that it was ‘what all guys do,’” on the set of Lucas.

But it was also reported LAPD are not investigating Feldman’s—and presumably Brascia’s—allegation:

“The LAPD announced that it was dropping Feldman’s case, as the statute of limitations had expired on the former child actor’s report. ‘It’s done,’ LAPD spokesperson Drake Madison told The Hollywood Reporter.”
