After allegations of sexual misconduct had been made against Russell Brand, Dinenage wrote to the social media platform Rumble (along with many other streaming services where Russell Brand released content) on a House of Commons letterhead, expressing her committee's concern that "he [Brand] may be able to profit from his content on the platform", and enquiring "whether Rumble intends to join YouTube in suspending Mr Brand's ability to earn money on the platform".
Rumble CEO Pavlovski stated: "We regard it as deeply inappropriate and dangerous that the UK Parliament would attempt to control who is allowed to speak on our platform or to earn a living from doing so… Singling out an individual and demanding his ban is even more disturbing given the absence of any connection between the allegations and his content on Rumble."
The letter prompted her fellow Conservative Philip Davies MP who is a former member of the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee to publish an opinion piece backing Rumble's refusal and wrote:
"We simply cannot have a situation where whenever anyone has allegations made about them, they instantly have their livelihood removed from them by a self-appointed lynch mob.
We believe in the rule of law in this country for good reason, and everyone - including select committee members (perhaps especially select committee members) - should remember that."
Davies accused Dinenage of breaking protocol "I should also point out that whilst the letter has Caroline's name at the bottom of it as Chairman, normal protocol requires that all letters from select committees are agreed upon by the whole committee before being sent..." and called for Dineage to apologise: "Caroline Dinenage should apologise on behalf of the committee for the wording of the letter, and acknowledge that expressing concern at Russell Brand's continued employment was inappropriate."
It's interesting to note that Dinenage's husband is Mark Lancaster, Commander in Chief of the 77th brigade.
The 77th brigade (Psy-Ops) was in charge of creating disinformation and spreading narrative steering during the the West's conflict with ISIS in the Middle East, once the conflict was over they were then put straight to work using their skills against the British People. Spreading lies about covid, etc, and putting down any opposing thoughts to the governments lies.
The 77th Brigade receives its orders and instruction from 'The Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS)' with Dinenage at the helm.
