    that’s devastating, on human rights day no less 🤦‍♀️

    hopefully he’ll be able to appeal this decision

    if he ends up being extradited this will be the biggest fuck you to journalism (and like basic human rights) worldwide by fascist pigs in the uk and the us, hopefully the british public will do something about it

      This was already the appeal (of the US side though). There is a fake political “supreme court” that was only created to over-rule politically sensitive cases that in theory could still be appealed to, but that is basically wasted effort with the current UK government in place according to the sources I have.

      Edit: the actual process seems to be that with this successful appeal of the US side, the lower court has to redo the case again now, which likely means a few more months/years of solitary confinement for Assange in a UK prison :(
