They didn't have to. The fact they chose to throw ridiculous amount of money away besieging some guy because US dislikes him, is on them, not on Assange.
- kspacewalk2 7y agoIf you don't police a bail violation and send the offender to jail, then bail is really just a pinky-swear release. Come to court if you want, type of deal.
- armitron 7y agoHow many other bail violations have you seen the UK spend millions of pounds for? As a UK citizen, the government stance in the Assange case disgusts me. It's obvious what's going on here, nevermind the "see nothing hear nothing" attitude that's on display.
