Julian Assange

[drplokta]

Just how vigilant can the police be as the days turn to weeks and the weeks turn to months? Embassies must get quite a few visitors, and they can't search everyone as they're coming and going. Suppose that Assange grows a beard and dyes his hair, and then one day in a couple of months' time one of the visitors to the embassy is a bearded man with the same hair colour and general build and face shape. They swap clothes, and Assange leaves. He's then put on a train to Bristol and a boat to an Ecuadorean registered ship in international waters. Then the other guy leaves the embassy.

...Or they're actually more organised than that, and he isn't actually in there at all: it was a look-alike who went in to draw all the attention, while bearded-and-dyed Assange slips away already, to previously-arranged asylum in a whole other country...
