The BBC broadcaster Jeremy Vine says that YouTube "don't care" about abusive videos posted on the platform by convicted Nottingham stalker Alex Belfield. In an interview on BBC Two, Mr Vine said that several videos about him uploaded by Belfield were still on the platform.
Speaking to Victoria Derbyshire on BBC Two's Newsnight, Mr Vine said that physical stalking did not compare to the experience that Belfield had put him through. He said: "I had a physical stalker once. I had somebody turn up outside Radio 2 and try and follow me home. But turning to YouTube and Twitter and the platform given to Belfield by the social media companies, Mr Vine said he was "disgusted" by their behaviour. Discussing YouTube in particular, Mr Vine said: "Half of the videos about me are still up there.
