High profile lawyer of Julian Assange, Jennifer Robinson, reflects on Assange's recent testimony to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. The Assembly criticised the role of both the US and the UK in Assange's imprisonment and called on member states to improve protections for whistleblowers and journalists. Robinson is also in Australia to discuss the release of the now uncensored and unredacted version of her book which discusses how defamation law is being used to silence women who speak out about sexual abuse and misconduct. 

Guest: Jennifer Robinson, barrister at Doughty Street Chambers in London and co-author of ‘How many more women - how the law silences women,’ with Dr Keina Yoshida, published by Allen and Unwin.
