    On The Guardian website, Mods, so it's green for go!!

    It'll be some comedown if he's guilty. I'd say he'd have to emigrate.

    Didn't think someone could make themselves more unpopular.

    Well done for proving me wrong, Max.

    I never thought I'd see myself feeling sorry for Max Clifford...

    And I was right.

    I like how the meeja are straining to point out that as far as Operation Yewtree goes, Clifford only appears under the heading 'others'... as if it's going to stop people assuming his guilt. They don't want to go upsetting the apple tart as a wiseguy once said.

    Charged with assaulting teenage girls as young as 14 according to channel 4 news.

    Ffs, this is starting to get ridiculous. Who the hell do these perverts think they are! Did they think their celeb status was going to prevent those assaulted from speaking out. Such arrogance!

    God help those victims. They are amazing people to have made statements

    Going by the period of time the charges span ('66-'85) the youngest he could possibly have been when engaged in sexual activity with a 14 year old is 23. He could of course have been a lot older.

    Ps...... the curse of Louis Theroux continues.
    Hopefully the Westboro baptist church is next.

    Just shocked by it all. Didn't ever think he was guilty and now to find out he has been arrested on 11 counts, the youngest being 14. Sick.

    Why wouldn't you think he is guilty? The man is scum.

    I was watching the Louis Theroux documentary on him recently again. He seemed like a slippery man indeed. I thought the whole Simon Cowell thing was funny - making up girlfriends for him and such.

    It's probably too late to prosecute Elvis.

    Too late to prosecute Savile too but people went mental over him.

    Given it's up to 47 years ago, how can they charge with sufficient evidence, I mean, do they purely rely on the victim themselves or what?

    I'm sure PR guru, Max will understand it's not great to have the name 'Savile' pop up 5 times in a BBC report of your criminal charges.

    Elvis's relationship with Priscilla seems pretty consensual, and it appears that she was chaperoned for a good part of their early relationship. Whilst you can question if she could give informed consent at that age, there is no question of assault.
