The campaign to free Julian Assange needs your help.
Help us fund a HUGE billboard in Melbourne, Australia to put pressure on the incoming government to ACT NOW!!
There is SOOOO much happening right now in our collective quest to free Julian Assange.
- UK Home Secretary Priti Patel’s SIGNED Julian’s extradition to the US where he will face a175 year DEATH SENTENCE!!! Julian’s team have confirmed they will appeal to the High Court.
- UK have admitted to illegally spying on Julian’s lawyer and agreed to a settlement
- Spanish Court summons former US Secretary of State and CIA director Mike Pompeo to explain CIA plot to assassinate Julian
- Critically acclaimed documentary Ithaka: A Fight To Free Julian has been viewed in cinemas around the globe further galvanising support
- 19 organisations including Reporters Without Borders, International Federation of Journalists, Big Brother Watch and PEN International have called on UK Home Secretary to reject extradition
- Appeals to the High Court and International Court of Human Rights are still available
The Free Assange campaign is in the strongest position it has EVER been so we need capitalise on the wave of support coming through from around the globe and pressure the Australian Prime Minister to make good on his expressed sentiment that the "ongoing pursuit of Mr Assange" serves no evident "purpose" and that "enough is enough".
Please help us fund this HUGE 6m x 3m mobile billboard for 2 whole weeks leading up to Julian Assange’s 51st birthday and help us STOP his extradition to the USA. We are closer than ever before to securing Julian’s freedom but we must keep the pressure on the Australian government.

Australian award winning publisher and founder of Wikileaks is facing a 175-year sentence for publishing truthful information about US War crimes back in 2010.
Julian is currently being detained in HM Prison Belmarsh which is one of the UK's harshest prison. Only the most hardened criminals are housed here, murderers and terrorists, it is no place for an academic and journalist.
Julian has been locked up in solitary confinement-like conditions of over 3 years.
On July 3rd it will be Julian's 51st Birthday, his thrid consecutive birthday spend behind bars in Belmarsh.
The US government has been relentlessly persuing this case to extradite Julian Assange.
In January 2022, Julian Assange lost his appeal at the UK High Court. This now means he can be extradited to the US were he faces up to 175 years imprisonment for exposing truthful US War Crimes.
But before that can happen the Home Secretary of the UK Priti Patel must sign off on this decision.
For the first time this is NOW strictly a political matter. We now have, for the first time in three years, an opportunity to effect positive change and have the extradition of Julian Assange dropped.
And now we have a new Prime Minister in Australia, Mr Anthony Albanese who has previously stated that the "ongoing pursuit of Mr Assange" serves no evident "purpose" and that "enough is enough".
We the people need to hold Mr Albanese to his word and have him stand up for free speech, free press and to defend democracy.
Julian Assange must be released and free to live the rest of his life without persecution and with his young family.
If convicted, his sentence will carry far reaching consequences for journalism and every single person around the world.
We must defend free speech, free press and Julian Assange.
Free speech matters.
We have many things on our side at the moment but we cannot do this without your support.
Please donate to help us bring greater attention to the dire circumstance of Julian Assange at this critical time and prevent his extradition to the USA.
