Back in the real world - here is what Jeremy Corbyn *actually* said:
“If there are allegations which Julian Assange needs to answer of sexual issues, sexual attacks that may or may not have taken place in Sweden, then it’s a matter for the courts to decide. But, I do think he should answer those questions. My objection was to his extradition to the United States because I do believe that WikiLeaks told us the truth about what was actually happening in Afghanistan and in Iraq."
And he's absolutely right - the US is attempting to imprison and persecute a journalist for whistle-blowing; which is chilling, and a deliberate attempt to send a message to *all* journalists - speak truth to our power, and we'll make you disappear. Remember the international outcry when Jamal Khashoggi, a dissident journalist, was murdered by Saudi Arabia? Why is there not the same outcry about Julian Assange, who exposed US war crimes?
Because he looks and behaves like the school sneak.
