Can Britain be trusted?

Julian Assange is being pressured to leave the Equadorian Embassy after Embassy Officials state that months of quite diplomacy have resulted in Britain giving assurances that Mr Assange will not be extradited to the US unless the US removes the option of the death penalty.
I believe the US will acquiesce to this request and Mr Assange will be extradited to the US and face the rest of his life in prison.

That guy's a pain in the arse whoever has to deal with him.

@Picklebobble2 If freed, and I'm sure he won't be, he will continue to do what he has always done. Expose the dirty back door deals. In my opinion he will end up in a US prison for a very long time

@Gusman He's a pain in the ass because if he comes home they'll be expected to deal with him on the U.S behalf.
Unless Unca' Donald sees it as a political coup to get him stateside have a showtrial and be seen to 'make an example of traitors' as some will no doubt clamour for.

@Picklebobble2 There are ways to expose U.S.Government hypocrisy. but the way he chose to do it, wasn't it.
He must have known that.

@Picklebobble2 I'm sure he knew the ramifications of his methods. Maybe he became arrogant, thinking he is untouchable. What ever his thoughts, it is a sad situation.
