The persecution of Julian Assange

In a special episode of the Irish People podcast we discuss the recent and frankly shameful decision by the British courts to grant the United States extradition request for Julian Assange. We are joined by Chris Williamson, former Labour MP for Derby North, a close ally of Corbyn, one of the few MPs who fought against the fake anti semitism smears and who ultimately paid the price for opposing the right wing coup in Labour. Chris is a champion of Palestine, a committed internationalist and anti imperialist and passionate animal rights campaigner. Chris is helping build a left alternative across England. He has been central to the campaign to free Julian Assange and it’s fair to say a true champion of social justice. We are also joined by Phil Kelly activist and regular media commentator, Phil is a strong champion of Cuba and a committed internationalist and anti-imperialist.
