    I cannot commend this article highly enough to anybody who wants to understand why and how I have been sentenced to prison.

    📢UPDATE! 📩 Craig got in touch to say thank you to all those who are making passing his time in his lonely cell much easier. In August he received over 1000 messages, postcards & letters. If you're waiting for a reply, he's working on it! ✍️

    Brilliant analysis from on the ‘objective’ test used against “At best this looks like special pleading, an attempt to excuse the failure to prosecute mainstream journalists who have committed essentially the same contempts of which Murray is accused”

    Thanks to for this on Craig's lack of legal options in the UK.

    Sadly will not be present to write his usual court report on tomorrow's Assange hearing. His earlier reports are literary as well as journalistic masterpieces and can be read here:

    Question for journalists who have applied for accreditation to cover the Assange hearing tomorrow: has anyone yet had successful confirmation from the court that they will be allocated one of the two seats for media, and/or that they will receive access to the video link?

    It is a terrible day for Scottish justice. A feud between leaders of the SNP ended in allegations of sexual assault main evidence for which was concocted on WhatsApp & thrown out in court. For merely reporting this goes to jail. Freedom is in chains now in Scotland.

    📢PRESS RELEASE: Craig Murray to be first person incarcerated in the UK over media contempt case in 50 years, setting dangerous legal precedent for freedom of speech and equality before the law. 👇

    I have almost never read an article by Jonathan Cook that was not superb. To be the subject of a great one is an honour.
