Today is Global #FreeAssange day.
Julian was arrested on this day in 2010, 8 days after WikiLeaks started publishing Cablegate. Julian has not known freedom since.
Under house arrest, embassy siege, now in Belmarsh prison, and facing extradition and 175 years in US prison.
Imprisoned for publishing the truth about state criminality and corruption. The world’s most famous political prisoner.

@RishiSunak "Those who break the law should feel the full force of it"......

@Nigel_Farage Ive been de-livlihooded due to brexit. Wheres our list for being your martyr? ? Not even a thankyou from the brexshiters who have devestated industries and livlihoods with no personal consequences in the name of your fake patriotism. Debanked people... a real non problem.
This video was taken in April 2019. Four years later, they are the last images that we have seen of #JulianAssange.
The US and UK have successfully silenced Julian and justify their actions under the veil of due process which is itself a cruel punishment.
#FreeJulianAssange
Urge the US authorities to drop the charges against Julian Assange that stem solely from his publishing activities with Wikileaks. Sign the petition now and protect the right to freedom of expression. | @amnesty#FreeJulian#FreeAssange2023

Julian Assange: ‘You can’t build a skyscraper out of plasticine. And you can’t build a just civilization out of ignorance and lies’ [2012] #AssangeTruth
Jacob Rees-Mogg is so patriotic he pays almost no tax, has moved all his businesses to Ireland, has an Irish passport and is registered for tax in the Cayman Islands tax haven.
He truly is the ideal of Brexit, a flag waving, tax dodging, passport changing charlatan.
If the UK leaves the ECHR, then *people in the UK* lose all the protections listed below. (Nobody else does, because no other country is leaving!) It would be a massive act of self-harm, and a huge victory for a government bent on repression and fear.
Crimes are not ‘classified information’.
It’s not a crime to expose a crime.
The US committed crimes, Assange allowed the world to see them.
If that’s a crime against US law, the US is a criminal organisation.
If the US is a criminal organisation, Australia is an enabler.
@GreenJennyJones@MayorofLondon How does paying money to the govt clean the pollution from a car ? Same logic as flying a plane from uk to stop a boat leaving from France. Just fing ridiculous.
My family has existed on these islands for at least a thousand years that we can trace back, so undoubtedly more. I will not be told I am betraying this country by refusing to back a racist law by someone whose own family were economic immigrants one generation ago.
