He is not mentally ill, he is a very naughty boy

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is facing the prospect of imminent extradition to the U.S. after the UK High Court granted an appeal by the US government against an earlier (January) refusal by a UK judge to extradite him on mental health grounds.

A final decision on whether to grant the extradition will be made by the UK secretary of state, Priti Patel and while he does have the advantage that he is white and not a Muslim, he is unlikely to get any sanctuary. The Brits have spent a fortune on Assange over the last decade and will be pleased to off-load him to the Americans.

The US wants to put Assange on trial for conspiracy to hack and computer misuse. He also faces a number of charges under the controversial Espionage Act. In all, he faces 18 counts connected with “obtaining and disclosing defence and national security material” through the WikiLeaks website, primarily in 2009 and 2010 but also “to some extent since”, per a court summary.
