@pwebbr @libertyhq If they are serious about 'exposing injustices that are hidden from view', they may very well have their own extradition hearings to prepare for as well

"The Ministry of Justice confirmed with AAP that #JulianAssange who is being held on remand in Belmarsh prison, will not be temporarily released because he's not serving a custodial sentence and therefore not eligible".

@amnesty: "The US government’s unrelenting pursuit of Julian Assange for having published disclosed documents that included possible war crimes committed by the US military is nothing short of a full-scale assault on the right to freedom of expression".

@ChrissieHynde Dear Chrissie - The point is that Mr. Assange broke no law whatsoever. His 'crime' was to publish evidence of war crimes and human rights abuses which have embarrassed those in power.

@UKinMexico @GacetaVeracruz Why is Assange also being prevented from using a computer that would allow him to review the evidence? #ImpededAccess

@UKinMexico @GacetaVeracruz Then why are his lawyers only getting 2 hours to review the evidence with Assange before Friday's deadline? #ImpededAccess

@haveigotnews You mock an imprisoned journalist facing an effective death penalty for exposing war crimes, whose extradition hearing is just 2 months away.
The asylum was for US persecution, that's why he remained in the embassy after Sweden dropped the case in 2017.
