Craig Murray at Julian Assange's Hearing

I just caught the end of his speech, and it was very good. He summed on a positive note, saying that he believes that agreeing to the US extradition request without the explicitly requested assurance that Julian Assange would have the same first-amendment rights as a US citizen would be a travesty that no court could support and so they will have to turn it down and free him.

[Update: the decision was to allow leave to appeal to the Supreme Court. Why on earth they can't allow him more humane treatment in the mean-time is beyond me. They are planning a further demonstration at Picadilly Circus between 4 and 6pm this evening.]
