Very interesting. It is indicative of how the American ruling class has become increasingly authoritarian by its reliance upon coercion to deal with its critics.
Last week a judge in Britain, my home country, refused to let Assange leave the Ecuadorian embassy in London desoite the sexual assualt charges from Sweden being dropped. As usual the British establishment has got the back of its bigger brother.
Let us hope that a Labour Government led by a socialist, in the form of Jeremy Corby, would stand up to its so called American ''ally'' and let Assange leave the UK.
