    Jeremy Hunt tweets this afternoon from Glasgow - without irony or a mention of Assange - where he's given a speech on media freedom:

    Jeremy Hunt:
    "A free media is not a "Western" value but a pillar of a thriving society, benefiting people across the world.
    To embrace the opportunities of a free society we must defend the press. My speech in Glasgow to #World News Media Congress @Newspaper World"

    Dr Sean Love, one of the medical doctors who's attended to Assange at the Embassy and who has already raised alarms, tweets today:

    Dr Love:
    "After years of medical evaluations, @UNSpecial Rapporteur on Torture agrees with our team's findings:
    "He has been subjected to intense psychological torture comparable to some of the gravest cases from interrogation prisons around the world".
