I think 15 years might be the record. Not sure Assange will manage that long.
Mindszenty, after all, was a professional celibate...
Looks like Assange is walking the streets again. Sweden have cancelled the warrant. (Story is from August so not really sure what's going on). Unless he still fancies living in Equador.

Your article is from 2010. It would be from when the first prosecutor dropped the rape charges, and before the second prosecutor resurrected them.
Nah. The culprit is the "Most Popular" box near bottom right. It throws up weird shit because people do weird shit. Someone links a decade-old skateboarding dog from 4chan, up it comes... and people don't read the date, because it's "on the front page".
Perhaps they should stick the date alongside the link to demostrate that weird shit is happening.

New lows, see how far they will stoop. Who needs your enemies to undermine support when you are so good at soiling yourself?

Yes, they also deleted it then retweeted messages of support for the original message.

Its a good thing I have a fair grip on the more fanciful side of my imagination, otherwise I'd be starting to suspect there was a new way to fall on your sword without actually dying. "Do not kill me oh superpower, I will not grovel publicly before you but I will discredit myself more effectively than your smears and showtrials could. I will neuter myself and become a useful idiot that serves your cause. You have nothing to fear from me, I am just another actor and Im not really looking to usurp the director'.

Hey, Dean Yager!
I too have had to stop myself wondering how the CIA inserted Assange into WikiLeaks
Given the form, while they were asleep would seem most likely.

the scumsuckers on socialist unity are salivating at the prospect of Galloway suing the NUS.

Not the smartest post, given that he's suing for what you've just repeated.

Although the lucky bastards are not having to pay the full amount they originally put up as surety for Assange, as the Judge took pity on their "financial circumstances" and honourable intentions. It looks like they will only have to pay 60% or so of the full amount. Quite how anyone who can afford to put up £20k can plead poverty to the court is beyond me, especially when Assange was a known risk for absconding.

I don't think Galloway will sue anyone - it's just sabre rattling in my opinion. He hasn't got a hope of winning IMO and if you read the news reports carefully you'll see nowhere does it actually say he will sue. Also the NUS haven't had any formal contact from him. I think he's allowed the story to get out to save a bit of face and hope it all blows over...

I don't know. Much as I detest Galloway I think he'd stand a good chance of winning if he sued.
For him to be a "rape denier" it would have to have been established that Assange had raped someone, and that's not the case.
