Bail decision on WikiLeaks' Assange

Assange's lawyer Mark Stephens said:

"The question we have to ask is if they weren't talking to the Swedes, who were they talking to? It's highly irregular because, as (director of public prosecutions) Keir Starmer said on Radio 4 this morning, the CPS are supposed to act as the agents of the Swedish authorities and they appear to be acting without the knowledge of their director or the Swedes. It remains opaque and unclear as to who actually gave the order to oppose bail."
Unclear to whom?

Obvious that Uncle Sam gave the order and the Brits said "Sir, yes sir!"

...the special relationship you see.
