- Justice system - how they are holding Assange without bail? Is the judicial system just another arm of the law? How much influence do foreign governments have on judicial systems in other countries?

The prohibition against excessive bail in England goes back to the Magna Charta. The charges against Assange aren't any more serious than having angered a girlfriend. The only plausible conclusion one can draw from his being held without bail for amazingly trivial charges is that the charges are nothing more than a pretext....let the show trial begin.
