I think Assange should be free, but we should follow the law. In what way is it torture?

I also think we should close that US base till Sacoolas is returned to face trial.

Living under thread of extradition & more than life imprisonment in US;
restricted visiting including doctors & lawyers;
restricted access to writing materials & note books;
unable to prepare his defence against charges;
medical neglect;
......

Sacoolas - review diplomatic rights, etc. Reject Assange extradition & release him. The 2-way treaty is not honoured by the US.

Well I donl't know what the latest treaty is, but before that the US only had to put in an extradition request and we had to honour it. It didn't work the other way, though.
I don't know how the current treaty works, but if it is the same as others, they should lay charges and they should be examined in our courts.
I don't hold much faith in US justice and I don't expect you do either.
But if we have a gtreaty it should be honoured.
As regards Sacoolas, she promised the police she would not leave the country, but was then flown out by the US, and claimed diplomatic privilege to which our government said she was not entitled to. Deceit all round.
