"One of the two High Court judges who will rule on Julian Assange’s bid to stop his extradition to the US represented the UK’s Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) and the Ministry of Defence," reported Declassified UK.
"Justice Jeremy Johnson has also been a specially vetted barrister, cleared by the UK authorities to access top secret information. As with previous judges who have ruled on Assange’s case, this raises concerns about institutional conflicts of interest."
"Exactly how much Johnson has been paid for his work for government departments is not clear. Records show he was paid twice by the Government Legal Department for his services in 2018. The sum was over £55,000."
"WikiLeaks has published sensitive documents on the US and Britain’s use of “extraordinary rendition” during the war on terror."
The defining silence on this by most (all?) reporters shows how sold out they are. This directly affects their livelihood, and ability to do their job. Yet, they can't be bothered to do their job.

thanks for sharing. I fear for him. There is very little reporting in the the UK MSM but they are going heavy on Navalny coverage and, strangely enough, a woman detained in a Belarus jail but all but silent on Julian's huge landmark case, which is happening in their own country and capital city.
