Well, it seems the British petition is mostly aimed to rile angry Americans. Of course if the US did actually deport him we would win, for the simple reason that he is still a British citizen, so unless Parliament actually took that away they'd have to take him back.

Could you explain that principle to Vietnam? We have couple of conmans here who they refuse to take back.

Burglaries, robberies, assaults... they serve their prison sentences and are our problem again - rinse & repeat. No-one is dumb enough to take them.

Yet this article says that Finland deports many non-citizens every year. I don't understand what the problem would be with these two.

I wish the same logic was applied to Assange
