  The question of Ecuadorian sovereignty is a red herring used to divert attention from the real issues. The government informed Ecuador that following the Yvonne Fletcher case, legislation existed that could be used to revoke the Embassy's status, allowing Assanges arrest. They didn't threaten to do it, they simply explained that they could. Of course this would be a hugely controversial move, which would endanger our embassies abroad. Rest assured, it will not happen.
  As regards the arrest warrant, I repeat this has been challenged in every court in the U.K., and those challanges have failed. The supreme court has made it's decision, but seemingly that isn't good enough for the Guardian.
  The issue here is simple. Should Assange face questioning in Sweden over the rape allegations? If not, why not?
