The Swedes have served their purpüose and are no longer needed, so they leave the stage.

In the British decision making to follow now, Brexit and the UK being hopeful to get a good trade agreement with the US, will play a role. Trump would not be Trump if not drumming the drum with this stick. His behaviour in blackmailing the Ukraine speaks precedence.

It would serve the British reputation well, if giving Assange a formal sentence for bail violation, calculatung that with the isolation imprisonment Assange is in needlessly and the psychic consequences of that (many speak of de facto torture), and letting him go, ignoring the Donaldinarium across the pond. For the little boy in the WH, Assange is not about treaosn or not, secrecy or not, good or evil, right or wrong: for this big child the Assange case is just an opportunity to bribe miliutary servicemen with theatralic concenssions and buy the sympoathy, like he did with the pardoning of three US-sentenced war criminals short time ago.

And lets face it: no matter whether we like Assange as a person or not - we owe him, like we owe Snowden as well. Many of us still would live in blidnness over certain things that we should kinow our govenrtment and that big data and that intel servicesd are doing against our personal interests. From now , we do not have the excuse anymore that "we did not know". From now on, we must admit that where we continue to ignore unwanted truths - we live in blindness due to our own choice and decision. Before, our ignorrance was was lacking knowledge. Now, our ignorrance is is our choice.

I still cannto stand him as a person, but he has de facto lived in detention since a decade, without a court sentence, and due to the very well founded fear that a plot is staged against him to get the US service's hands on him. De facto he already has served a ten year spriuson sentence. And for what...? That relativizes any staged claim about bail violations. He had good and imo justified reason to violate his bail.

The UK should set him free and let him go immediately. This conspiracy has gone way too far and way too long already. I think he even should be given compensation.
