Assange is a fugitive from justice. He jumped bail and if he leaves the Embassy he will face the consequences of doing so. He may have avoided Swedish justice. He won't be afforded that possibility here. And frankly, after the way he has behaved I'd happily see him extradited.https://twitter.com/wikileaks/status/1020395275939180544 …

You need to choose a different career. He will be arrested for jumping bail as soon as he sets foot outside of his bolthole

The bail issue is irrelevant. The issue is US extradition. The US is trying to imprison a foreign journalist, publishing from abroad, for publishing true information about corruption & illegality. Think about it. Or don't listen to me, listen to this guy:https://twitter.com/AssangeLegal/status/1019281522568892416 …

No it isn’t. He will be arrested
-
Yes, so what. That's not the point. The point is US extradition. Why are you obsessed with bail?
-
The only one obsessed on this is you.

Assange has said he's happy to go to court to deal with the bail issue, even though he's already served any possible sentence. All he wants is a guarantee his asylum will be respected. To date, UK has violated international legal obligations & will likely continue to do so.
-
He has not served any sentence. Putting himself somewhere he can’t be touched and then making demands doesn’t work in this country. He’ll get what’s coming to him

I can see you are in some irrational vengence space. Even if you don't count the time in the embassy (over 6 years), standard UK sentencing credit would apply to the 550 days under restrictive house arrest ('qualifying bail conditions') and 10 days in prison prior to the embassy

You don't charge people until you've arrested them. He's breach his bail conditions and when arrested will be put before the courts to deal as appropriate.
