The Julian #Assange bail hearing set to start at 10am at Westminster magistrates court
Due to the London lockdown I'm not at the court, but will be accessing the secure video link to the hearing and tweeting updates from that. #Assange
We may also get an update from US government counsel if they are planning to appeal Monday's decision by Judge Vanessa Baraitser to deny their request to extradite Mr Assange to the United States
The clock is ticking, as under the regulations the US has only 15 days from the judgment to lodge an appeal at the High court. #Assange
