The alleged offences are claimed to have taken place between 2022 and 2024, the Metropolitan Police said.
He is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, August 27th.
A spokeswoman for The Grand Social venue confirmed to the PA news agency that Paul Gallagher 'will no longer be DJing at our Oasis afterparty'.

'Mani from The Stone Roses will DJ on Saturday night and Alan McGee will DJ on Sunday,' she said.
The promoters of the event, Up Close and Personal Promotions, have been contacted for comment.
Liam and Noel Gallagher announced last August that they would perform together for the first time since Oasis's dramatic split in 2009.
The Oasis Live '25 tour kicked off in Cardiff's Principality Stadium in July, before moving on to Manchester, London and Edinburgh.

Celebrity SAS Who Dares Wins axes ex army corporal for 'lying and cheating' on the show - resulting in an explosive row
Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins has claimed two more high-profile departures, with one contestant dramatically thrown off the show for 'lying and cheating' while another walked away in agony. The brutal Channel 4 challenge has already seen a string of early exits, including S Club's Hannah Spearritt, TV personality Louie Spence, and Love Islanders Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri - and Wednesday's episode delivered even more shocks. The fourth episode's theme focused on trust and integrity, but tensions exploded as former Traitors winner Harry Clark, 24, was booted from the course by furious staff after being caught cutting corners. Harry – whose skills in deception helped him scoop the Traitors crown – found his tactics backfired when his Celebrity SAS teammates branded him one of the least trustworthy recruits. Alongside Rebecca Loos, he was put in charge of a team for a gruelling race involving hauling a heavy dinghy. But as ex-Special Forces instructors Mark 'Billy' Billingham, Jason 'Foxy' Fox, Rudy Reyes, and Chris Oliver watched on, Harry appeared to avoid his share of the workload. His lack of effort left former football hardman Adebayo 'The Beast' Akinfenwa taking on the bulk of the weight – triggering a flare-up of his long-term knee injury. In pain and out of energy, Adebayo had no choice but to withdraw from the show entirely. Earlier in the show Jason Fox could be heard saying: 'If we get an indication that a recruit isn't pulling their weight, we will find out' so when back at camp, Harry was hauled in for a no-nonsense grilling. When confronted over failing to complete an earlier set of burpees, the staff accused him of lying straight to their faces. 'Are you f***ing trying to pull the wool over my eyes?!' Chris raged, before adding the star was treating him 'like an idiot'. Moments later, the ex army corporal was marched out in front of the rest of the recruits, and admitted that he had 'cut corners' and not completed all the burpees. Mark then shouted: 'No, you lied, you cut corners, I asked you three times about honesty and integrity, and what did you do?' Harry replied: 'I lied, staff.'

Earlier in the episode, Harry joked to the other celebrities how he couldn't grow facial hair. Talking about the fact they had not looked at themselves in the mirror in nearly a week he said: 'Do you know what I just deeped yeah? We haven't looked at ourselves in the mirror in like four days'. 'I haven't had facial hair since I was like 16. I'm clean shaven every day but do you know what's nice? I have like a proper Italian moustache.' With Harry and Adebayo 'The Beast' Akinfenwa gone, just eight stars remain on the show, with the next episode set to air this Sunday at 9pm on Channel 4. Last year, John Barrowman quit SAS after just 32 minutes into filming. He dubbed the 'worst recruit' in the show's history after he told Directing Staff 'I'm done'. He then added: 'I just... it's not for me, I know who I am and what I'm about, it's not for me' following his arrival on set.

Oasis 'flooded with huge offers for 2026 shows including Knebworth' amid reunion success
Liam and Noel Gallagher could carry on their huge Oasis reunion tour into next year as offers have reportedly been put to the band as the decision is all in their hands Oasis are said to have been inundaded with offers for shows for next year following their mega reunion this year. Brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher put their decades long feud aside as they reunited the iconic band for a string of shows. They kicked off in Cardiff last month before heading to Manchester, London and Edinburgh. The Britpop stars are set to carry on to Dublin before moving over to the US, Asia, Australasia and South America. Rumours have already been circulating that Oasis could carry on into 2026. It comes after Paul Weller revealed the unusual reason he refuses to watch Oasis concerts. Fans are hoping Oasis will head to Knebworth House next year as they mark the 30th anniversary of their two historic shows there. It would mean they would tip rival Robbie Williams off the post as the artist to have played the most shows at the Hertfordshire venue. According to the Sun, Oasis has been offered four dates at Knebworth along with a possible residency at their beloved Manchester City's Etihad Stadium. Fake posters of a 2026 tour have already appeared online as fans hold out hope for a chance to see the brothers back in action. However, it all boils down to whether Liam and Noel are really up for carrying it on. 'They'll be having a well-earned holiday as soon as this tour finishes later this year,' a source told the publication. 'As for 2026, they've seen the speculation, they've heard about the offers and they know what the fans want. But it's ultimately up for them to decide." Oasis: What's Their Story? An unofficial celebration magazine on sale now! A few simple words on social media on August 27 in 2024 were enough to spark pandemonium among Oasis fans and were the catalyst for the most eagerly awaited UK gigs of all time. This special unofficial magazine, available to order here, marks the reunion and honours the band both now and down the years with our incredible archive of photos and interviews - and with exclusive reviews and photographs of their first show! They added that it is up for Liam and Noel to weigh up if they want to "draw a line in the sand" or "keep the magic going". Yet, it is a "difficult decision". Festivals have also been holding out hope to bag Oasis at their events as they added both Coachella and Benicassim have sent offers to the band. The current tour was announced last year, almost 15 years to the date of their split, and a move that fans never believed would happen due to the tensions between Liam and Noel. Ever since Noel walked away, the two siblings have hurled insults at one another across social media and in interviews. But now, those days are firmly in the past with the two brothers walking out on stage each night holding hands, as though there had never been any bad blood.

Oasis' manager, Alec McKinlay, previously said that the current dates are the only ones that the band will be performing. He said in May: "This is very much the last time around, as Noel's made clear in the press. "It's a chance for fans who haven't seen the band to see them, or at least for some of them to. No, there's no plans for any new music." But Liam later hit out at the comments, saying that they came from "the accountant". Replying to a fan on X, he fumed: "Neither do I and the only people that will be making any kind of decisions on the future of OASIS will be ME n RKID [Noel] so let's just take it one day at a time."

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Erin finds the jewel in her Crown - a new leading lady
The Crown star Erin Doherty has found a new leading lady – and, just like King Charles 's nephew Peter Phillips, she's fallen for an NHS worker. I can reveal the 33-year-old actress, who shot to fame playing Peter's mother Princess Anne in the Netflix royal drama, has struck up a romance with radiographer Sinead Donnelly, 35. Phillips, meanwhile, has announced his engagement to NHS nurse Harriet Sperling. Over the weekend, Erin gave a glimpse into their blossoming relationship by posting a sweet photograph of them on holiday. In the picture, the pair stroll hand in hand through an archway, dressed for an evening occasion and each holding a glass of wine. 'Take us back to Italy please...' Sinead commented on the snap. Erin, who recently starred in Adolescence – another hugely successful Netflix series – was previously in a long-term relationship with fellow actress Sophie Melville. They met in 2017 while starring in Alan Ayckbourn's play The Divide, with Erin later describing their relationship as her 'greatest accomplishment'. While she and Sinead are enjoying the honeymoon phase, Erin has admitted that her dedication to her craft can affect her personal life. 'I fall in love with my characters – my girlfriend will attest to this,' she said recently. 'The minute anything comes into my sphere, the blinkers go on.' A self-confessed 'hopeless romantic' who 'loves love', Erin has also said of her sexuality: 'It took me a really long time to get to the point where I was, like, 'Oh, I'm gay'. I was never ready to carve out that path for myself, even though my relationships with men weren't satisfying.' Helen's novel way to thrive Despite having written the bestselling Bridget Jones series, Helen Fielding struggles with imposter syndrome. The author, 67, is quietly working on a new book – unrelated to the hapless anti-hero played by Renee Zellweger on screen – but she admits: 'I think everything in my novel is rubbish and makes no sense. I'm out of my depth. 'I try to boost my confidence by saying I've had six novels published. Last week, I thought my new novel was great – I was imagining the reviews, 'Fielding's a master novelist at the top of her game'. Maybe it's just part of the process. 'In the end, you just have to knuckle down and, like Winston Churchill said, keep buggering on and get on with it.' Emily Maitlis admits that since her Newsnight interview with Prince Andrew in 2019 ended his career as a working royal, she's developed a technique to avoid his daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. 'Occasionally, I find myself in the same room as them and I feel terrible,' she says. 'There's normally a very quiet, elegant dance where I try to get to the other end and leave them in peace.' Elevated to the peerage by Boris Johnson, journalist Claire Fox was taken aback by a plea from her father, John. 'On his deathbed he said he had lung cancer because he smoked,' reveals Baroness Fox of Buckley, 65. 'He said: 'Claire, I want you to promise me... That you'll go down to Silk Cut Ultra [low-tar cigarettes]'.' Harry Potter star Miriam Margolyes once gave a theatregoer a dramatic surprise. 'I would come on, acting drunk, and sit on a chair,' she recalls. 'Between the rehearsal and the first night, carpenters had put castors on the chair. At first I thought it was testament to the power of my performance. Then I fell on a punter in the front row.' Here comes the cavalry, with 'hottest royal' Alex When the Royal Family gathers for Trooping the Colour next year, one member may not be a spectator but riding in the King's Birthday Parade. Alexander Ogilvy, 28, grandson of Queen Elizabeth's cousin Princess Alexandra, has graduated from Sandhurst and signed up to the Household Cavalry. 'Very proud of our British Army officer,' says his sister, Flora Vesterberg, 30. She joined Alex, pictured right – described as 'the hottest royal you never heard of' – with their grandmother, pictured above, for his passing-out parade at the military academy in Berkshire. Divorcing Lily says life's a drag Lily Allen is puffing her way through a painful time – and not just on stage. The pop singer and actress, 40, who is divorcing her actor husband David Harbour, is currently playing the beleaguered Hedda Gabler at the Theatre Royal Bath. And she's convinced the play's director, Matthew Dunster, to let her vape on stage because she's 'going through some stuff' in her own life, too. 'When we were in rehearsals, I just said to Matthew, 'What about her vaping?' And he was, like, 'Yeah.' I think Matthew is just being generous to the fact that I might be going through some stuff: give her a little vape, give her a little time just to make her life a little bit easier.'
