The arrest of #JulianAssange at the request of the US is just another example of the power of their influence over the UK and Ecuador. Critics of Julian will love this and it’s clear government are happy to defend rights only so long as it’s convenient for them. It’s a disgrace the lengths the US and UK have gone to to punish Julian for exposing their wrongdoing. This is about so much more than one man. #wikileaks #freedomofthepress #rights #government
