BAD IDEA OF THE WEEK: The 25 months Julian Assange has been stuck inside the Ecuadorean Embassy

And of course the 6.8 million pounds the round-the-clock police presence has cost the British taxpayer at time of posting. According to this site, that would've paid for over 5.5 million meals for the needy, 34,000 kids fully vaccinated, nearly 27,000 hospital beds for one night, 12,000 children sent to school for a year, or 300 teachers' salaries for one year. Thanks a lot, Sweden. That's almost eighty million kronor your stubborn refusal to just go to the Embassy and question him about his alleged sexual misconduct there has cost the British taxpayer.
