Assange
Was this story ever reported in the UK main stream press – I don’t recall seeing it (even in Private Eye)?
I don’t think the UK or US authorities will come out smelling of roses once the Assange affair concludes.

I believe that all governments around the world have a responsibility to protect not only their own citizens, but also persons living within their jurisdiction.
If I were Home Secretary and a foreign country wanted the UK extradite a person living within the UK, and it came to light that that foreign country had made plans to assassinate the person – that would give me great cause for concern that the person’s life would be at risk should they be extradited.
Given that the UK government has form in the area of extraditing people who are then murdered by a foreign government, should make the Home Secretary think twice.
Should Mike Pompeo refuse the Spanish high court’s request to testify in this matter (after all, if there were no such plans what has he to hide?), then Assange would not be extradited.
Of course I’m in a minority of one (posting on this website) as others believe it perfectly acceptable for governments around the world to be engaged in criminal activity, including murder.
