Assange Writes Letter to King Charles Before £100 Million Coronation
About this episode
To mark the occasion of the coronation of King Charles the III, Julian Assange wrote a scathing public letter to the new monarch from his cell at Belmarsh prison, where he’s been held for over four years. The coronation cost £100 million of tax-payer funds, and many across the country have been outraged that public funds are being spent on such pomp and circumstance during a cost of living crisis.
We also discuss the recent killing of Jordan Neely, 30-year-old homeless man who was choked to death by ex-marine Daniel Penny. We explore the real fear many New Yorkers feel on the subway, and how the right-wing is using this vigilante murder to justify violence against the poor.
To talk about this and more, we are joined by Natalia Marques, writer at Peoples Dispatch
