Re: Well these wankers have changed their tune (Assange) Archived Message Posted by Ian M on December 18, 2020, 10:00 pm, in reply to "Well these wankers have changed their tune (Assange)" Er... interesting. Maybe the spooks have let it be known that there will be a pardon so the graun are scrambling to get on the right side of history? V weird. Naturally they will now be retracting the Manafort fake news story, firing Luke Harding, David Leigh and all the others who piled onto Assange and passing on all the money they made from the Wikileaks scoops to a suitable charity (or Wikileaks itself)?? Thought not... I guess this is why Labour's remaining soft-left MPs finally got round to doing something (see below - https://members5.boardhost.com/xxxxx/thread/1608276974.html ) including finally noticing the UN rapporteur on torture nearly 2 years after he first blew the whistle on Assange's treatment? "It got mentioned in the Guardian, we can talk about it now". Hopeful if it presages relief and freedom for JA, but the ghouls at the graun shouldn't be let off the hook for their part in the totalitarian abuse he has been put through.
