Re: What would happen if Assange stepped out ?
"but the charge would be skipping bail. This seems to carry a penalty of 3 to 12 months inside. "
Not for a first offence and certainly not for charges which no longer exist, especially as he's not been found guilty of anything. Causing the state to spend shedloads of money staking out the embassy isn't grounds for a harsher penalty.
Local habitual bail breachers get a £100 fine and told not to do it again.
If he got more than a suspended sentence or an afternoon in the cells he'd have grounds for an appeal.
