YouTube still hosts convicted stalker Alex Belfield’s videos – Nottinghamshire Live

YouTube creator and former BBC journalist Alex Belfield has continued posting videos on the platform despite being found guilty of stalking charges. It comes after a jury convicted Belfield, 42, of Shaldon Close in Mapperley, of stalking four victims including BBC broadcaster Jeremy Vine and Northampton BBC Radio’s Bernie Keith.

However, he has not been banned from the platform. In a statement to Nottinghamshire Live, the platform said Belfield’s channel – the Voice of Reason – was demonetised in February for violating the harassment policy.

The channel was removed from the YouTube Partner Program. But his videos are still available to watch, even after his conviction at the Nottingham Crown Court on August 5.

Belfield, who has 365,000 subscribers on YouTube, points viewers to his subscribers-only website from his YouTube channel, where he charges viewers £1 a week to be a member.

There he promises he can “say anything” behind a “Donald Trump-sized wall”.

He also advertises his upcoming show in Blackpool, at the Joe Longthorne Theatre, in his videos.

Prosecutors told Nottingham Crown Court that Belfield used social media messages, videos and emails to cause serious alarm or distress to his victims including Channel 5 and BBC Radio 2 presenter Mr Vine and BBC Radio Northampton’s Bernie Keith after his contract with BBC Radio Leeds was not renewed.

He faced eight stalking allegations, where he is said to have caused alarm and distress. He was cleared of four and convicted of 4 charges – two were alternatives of “simple stalking”.

A spokesperson for YouTube said: “Monetisation on the Voice of Reason channel remains suspended for violating our Creator Responsibility policy. If we see that a creator’s off-platform behaviour harms our users, community, employees or ecosystem, we take action to protect the community.”
