She really is a piece of nastiness….
Assange did the whole free world a valuable service. He is worthy of sanctuary and protection.

He is a self serving narcissistic twit, who's ego has decided that he alone is the judge of what us plebs are allowed to see, bypassing our elected representatives. Funny how he has always gone easy on Putin!

Good heavens. You trust your elected politicians, to act lawfully and for the common good at all times. Oh, hang on a sec, you have Boris at the helm. Sure what could go on, that he might want to lie about or cover up….?

No he is not. He is traitor to the West who sold secrets to get famous. That man was put in a position of trust and then did things that harmed the state, exposed secrets and weakened the ability of international security agencies to protect you and me. He is extremely fortunate that he is being extradited to the USA and not just obliterated in a drone strike.

...I automatically assume Anne Sacoolas is now also on her way here to face justice......?

No good him being tried in Sweden, I want him incarcerated in an American prison.

He was a journalist and published stuff about American war crimes.
What position of trust was he in?

So, as a journalist, when someone came to him with evidence of war crimes, he should have suppressed this information?

Britain has approved Assange’s extradition – war criminals and murderers, rejoice | Peter Oborne

So an American Apache helicopter crew, recklessly, carelessly and murderously open fire on a group of Iraqis and two journalists, killing them all. It’s as per usual covered up. Subsequently, Chelsea Manning gives footage of the wanton war crime to Assange. He rightly publishes it. Absolute right, courageous and brave thing to do. He has done truth, transparency and justice, a true service. Bravo!

Yes, well put!

Has she not already agreed to stand trial, albeit via video link?

She’ll only get her knuckles rapped and a (uk) driving ban anyway.

He didn’t only publish that though, he published many thousands of classified documents.

So you think he was right to publish the war crime stuff?
