The Political Week on Twitter: Assange special
The Assange row is the stuff that Twitter storms are made of and it hasn't let up all week.
@DuncanStott – Shooting George Galloway in the face – not murder, just 'bad gun etiquette'.
@ShippersUnbound – Loving George Galloway's attempt to out-vile Assange… 'No I'm the biggest tool on the left. Get me a TV camera. Me, me, me, me, me, me…'
@PlatoSays – Julian Assange threatens to make the EU look good
@jayrayner1 – George Galloway on why the charges against Assange aint rape: 'Not everybody needs to be asked prior to each insertion.' Well I bloody do.
@LFFKatie – In politics, all my least favourite people are called George
@wallaceme – I'll give a tenner to anyone who pushes the fire alarm in the Ecuadorian embassy.
@stevenradams – "@georgegalloway: Did you know she had several dates withAssange AFTER the alleged "rape" You useful idiots!" Dear Lord. Somebody stop him.
@jamesrbuk – BTW, around 100 people a month are extradited from the UK on European Arrest Warrants. So around 2,000 have gone during theAssange case.
@lexingtondymock – I don't think I can deal with any more Assange or rape stuff this week, tweeters. Maybe I'll start talking about bunny rabbits or something.
@helenlewis – Google the name of one of the Assange accusers & you see a pic calling her "Slut of The Year". And people ask why anonymity is important.
@JeromeTaylor – Nice little factoid. Ecuador embassy officials had to go to ambassador's house to pick up an air mattress the day JulianAssange turned up
@Heresy_Corner – I can imagine Julian Assange becoming a tourist attraction, like Garbo in her declining years.
