Exclusive Video: Interviews with Protestors at Julian Assange Hearing. -SR is mentioned Protestors gathered outside Julian Assange’s extradition hearing, condemning the trial as a breach of press freedoms. Outside the Westminster Magistrates Court supporters of Julian Assange protested his possible extradition to the United States, where he faces 175 years in prison for his role in the publication of classified information leaked by Chelsea Manning, formerly Bradley Manning. One supporter who said that she had come from Australia for the hearing alleged that “terrible injustices have been wreaked upon him; he’s in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day in a maximum-security prison”. She then called on United States President Donald Trump to “help Julian, because he is a true freedom fighter and he is a man of the truth”. In an interview with Breitbart London, WikiLeaks ambassador Joseph Pharrell said that: “If he is extradited, that changes the precedent, it changes your First Amendment, it throws it under the bus and makes it absolutely irrelevant. “If they get to extradite him for this, what is to stop Saudi Arabia from extraditing anyone from the UK who writes stories they don’t particularly like, or Russia, or North Korea extraditing a U.S. journalist for something that they have said?” Pharrell added. “It will destroy all national security reporting, people will be terrified to report anything, it will start a blanket cloud of secrecy.” British rapper Mathangi “M.I.A.” Arulpragasam addressed the crowd, promising to deliver the ‘Free Julian Assange’ message to the Queen of England in her upcoming meeting with Her Majesty. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2020/01/15/exclusive-video-interviews-with-protestors-at-julian-assange-hearing/
