EXCLUSIVE: Details From Inside The Prison Assange Is Holed Up In
7:01pm UK, Thursday December 09, 2010
Tim Marshall, foreign affairs editor

Inmates at Wandsworth Prison are pushing notes of support under the cell door of WikiLeaks founder, according to Sky News sources.

A source at the prison said, among several notes Assange received, are ones saying: "Hi Julian- good luck," "Sorry you're in here - it's wrong" and "We are one within here - Merry Christmas".

Another said: "Dear Julian, welcome to the real Frontline Club," referring to the journalists' club in London where he was staying before his arrest.

Assange is wearing a prison issue grey tracksuit and has no access to a computer.

He has not yet received a personal visit but both his legal team and an Australian diplomat have been to see him, each for about an hour.

Sky understands that Assange said: "I'm feeling in relatively good spirits, but I wish I was out."
