5 other ‘leaked’ emails from Julian Assange’s sent items box
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Julian Assange has an internet plumbing problem. Aside from the message to Benedict Cumberbatch, here are an artist’s impressions of five other sent items the Wikileaks founder would rather you didn’t see.

RE: Shopping habits
Edward,
You bloody dingbat! You’ve been caught on camera shopping. Take my advice: in future, try carrying a basket not a trolley. Less conspicuous!
Regards,
Jules
RE: A proposition
Dear Godfrey,
You break controversial news fast – a quality I greatly admire in a man. Last month, I noted, the Financial Times comment editor rightly dubbed you “a walking newsbomb”. I wondered, following on from your parliamentary career, whether you would consider pursuing a career with us here at Wikileaks?
The perks are many. There is a bathroom on sight and banana cake is served weekly as a Friday treat. Baking duties are rotated.
Sincerely,
Julian
RE: An offer I think you’ll find most difficult to decline…
Ryan,
Though we haven’t met I have followed your work with some closeness. The Ides of March, I thought, was bettered only by The Notebook – a romance as striking as it was humane. May I – perhaps presumptuously – suggest a future role? Several actors are in contention for playing me an in upcoming biopic, but it’s you who I think would best fit the part. The resemblance between us, I think you would agree, is undeniable.
Do let me know what you think – an inconsequential Englishman (I think he was in Doctor Who) is threatening to grab the part!
Yours,
Jules
PS. Is this still the right email?

RE: My wig is broken
Sir-
The periwig you supplied me in August of this year is no longer working. Your website suggests refunds for unsatisfied customers but really a replacement would be preferred. If you would, please forward me the colour charts directly. I also wondered if you did anything in the “blonde-graying” colour range?
Also, do you supply bathroom products?
Sincerely,
Julian
RE: !?&*%*?!@?
David,
A “Brilliant, fantastic piece of acting,” was it?
And you thought “the twitchiness and everything of Julian Assange” was “brilliantly portrayed,” did you?
What rot. You, sir, are a sycophant and a Cumberbitch!
The sniveling insolence of it all! This isn’t the last you’ll hear from me... The wrath of Ecuador and Assange will be swift and unremitting.
Sincerely!
Julian
