    Why would you think that any Brits need to hear that? Do you imagine we have any more control over our polity than you do yours?

      Yes, that’s the impression I got from the article.

      Gather outside the court at 8:30am on both days.

        Can’t see where you got that quote from but if you think that a call for protest proves that we control our polity, bless you but no.

            If you mean “turn out to protest” I don’t disagree but would note that this is made exceedingly difficult by the conspiracy theorists who don’t think he should be sent to stand trial in Sweden either. I strongly disagree with the decision to extradite him to the US but I can’t make common cause with the conspiranoids who insist that Sweden was a set up. He got himself into this predicament by trying to evade trial on credible charges of rape and sexual assault. Two things can be true but his supporters almost universally insist that they can’t and it is exhausting.
