Irony: Wikidick Assange Doesn't Want His Location Revealed

The gall of this man is just astonishing. In case anyone is wondering, the stately mansion is at Captain Vaughan Smith's Ellingham Hall on the Norfolk/Suffolk border.

See how much fun this can be?
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange tried to hide his bail address from the public in an astonishing move for the man responsible for leaking thousands of diplomatic secrets.

Assange's lawyers argued that the location - a 10-bedroom stately home - should not be disclosed on grounds of privacy during yesterday's hearing at City of Westminster Magistrates' Court.

But the move was dismissed by District Judge Howard Riddle, who ruled not to reveal the address would conflict with Assange's commitment to open justice.

The judge insisted the address - Captain Vaughan Smith's Ellingham Hall on the Norfolk/Suffolk border - was read out in open court as usual.
