BREAKING: The British government has ordered the extradition of Julian Assange to the United States to face spying charges.

to the United States to face spying charges. The WikiLeaks founder is likely to appeal, but Home Secretary Priti Patel signed the extradition order on Friday, her department said, following a British court ruling in April that Assange could be sent to the U.S.The Home Office said in a statement that"the U.K courts have not found that it would be oppressive, unjust or an abuse of process to extradite Mr. Assange.

""Nor have they found that extradition would be incompatible with his human rights, including his right to a fair trial and to freedom of expression, and that whilst in the U.S. he will be treated appropriately, including in relation to his health."The decision is a big moment in Assange's years-long battle to avoid facing trial in the U.S. - though not necessarily the end of the tale. Assange has 14 days to appeal.

Electric Ford GT40 replica brings 800bhp, 590lb ft | AutocarEveratti's electric Ford GT40 packs a whopping 800bhp - would you choose EV power if you were in the market for a replica GT40? Power isn't everything. I'd still much prefer the V8 powered GT40. I wonder how many African kids it took to mine the lithium for that one car? You need to remove around 250 tonnes of earth for each car, so I’m guessing quite a few. Much more ethical than a machine drilling for sustainable oil. No not at all, nope, nope nope. You need a bent 8 in a GT40 not some soulless electric ⚡️ pants the noise, the smell, the drama… or some wannabe drag car with no soul. Petrol till the end.
