Celebrity Justice
The celebrity lawyers representing the WikiLeaks founder - Julian Assange - have lost the latest round of their court battle to prevent his extradition to Sweden - to face two complaints of sexual assault.
But in doing so they have launched an extraordinary attack on European arrest warrants - used to extradite suspected criminals - claiming that the warrants represent 'tick box' justice, whatever that means.
Now unless I've got this wrong the UK criminal justice authorities announced - earlier this week - that they've just issued warrants for the arrest of 10 suspected British criminals - including alleged murderers and rapists.
Who all fled to the Costa del Crime in Spain - in an effort to avoid facing justice in the UK.
So what's the big deal?
What's sauce for the goose should be sauce for the gander - Mr Assange should face the music and get on the next plane to Stockholm - his endless consipracy theories are becoming boring.
