I think this may be notable.

Theresa May is conservative.

She will have had to sign off on an Assange deal.

Corbyn is leader of the opposing party which is labour.

Corbyn asked for Assange not to be extradited to the US.

70 MPs (mostly labour) have asked for any Swedish request for extradition to take precedence.

Labour must fear the deal made.

There is possibly going to be a general election this year.

Labour must fear an election kill shot from Assange. Specifically damaging Corbyn.

Corbyn has been linked to the IRA, Hezbollah and Iran.

Could Assange kill Labour's chances in an election which would be an advantage to May and the conservatives.
