No QUAD but the rally for freedom of Julian Assange is on!
The wife of imprisoned journalist, publisher and Wikileaks founder, Julian Assange, is travelling to Australia for the very first time! We are waiting to confirm if she will be speaking at our rally.
The rally coincides with what was to be Joe Biden’s first trip to Australia since his election to attend the Quad summit in Sydney on Wednesday. President Biden cancelled his arrangements yesterday before Prime Minister Albanese announced the cancellation of the entire event.
However we will not cancel the People’s event for Assange!
Speakers include:
Stephen Kenny – Australian lawyer for Julian Assange
Senator Peter Whish-Wilson – Member of the Bring Assange Home Parliamentary Group
Major David McBride – Military Whistleblower
Gabriel & John Shipton – brother and father, advocates of Julian Assange
Stella Assange – Wife and advocate of Julian Assange TBC
As Joe Biden said “Journalism is not a crime”
Its time to bring Julian Assange home.
See you there!
