I have been looking at the coverage of the #Assange extradition this week. I am taken back to then Home Secretary's decision to block Gary McKinnon's extradition having previously sent @FreeTalha and 4 others without a second glance. I wrote this then politics.co.uk/comment-analys… 1/
No improvements in UK #extradition system since freetalha.com case and subsequent parliamentary reviews. New strategy required.

We are very saddened to learn of the passing of Bruce Kent. He was a man whose Christian faith compelled him to pursue peace and justice. He visited Talha in prison many times, and supported the campaign with protests, poetry readings and prayers. He will be greatly missed.
💻There's a @WordFactoryUK Zoom workshop on Uschi Gatwards's 2015 @WasafiriMag prize winning short story, My Brother is Back, based upon Talha's conversation about repatriation from solitary confinement at a death row prison. 🗓Thu. 24th Feb. 7pm GMT 🔗eventbrite.co.uk/e/word-factory…

11 years! Thank you to our supporters. #MyTwitterAnniversary
We were devastated this morning to learn of the passing of the talented writer Uschi Gatward whose book came out only a few months ago to great acclaim. Her award-winning story was the most perfect embodiment of our campaign's arc. We mourn her loss deeply.

On this day 2012, the #ColumbusDay weekend, Talha Ahsan was deprived of sight and sound, and forced onto a plane for #extradition to #solitaryconfinement in a country he had never visited. At the same time, his first place @KoestlerArts poem was displayed at the South Bank.
@FreeTalha It is galling how Talha's case is still written out of the conversation on this.
There are overlaps with mental health arguments made in freetalha.com (2006-2014) requiring examination. #extradition #Assange #AssangeCase

💡We're very pleased to see this glowing review of Uschi Gatward's book which includes her award winning short story based upon an almost two-hour phone conversation with Talha a few months after his return to the UK from US solitary confinement in 2014. theguardian.com/books/2021/jul…
