WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has arrived in his native Australia to be reunited with his family and start a new life as a free man.He flew into the capital Canberra on Wednesday in the final act of an extraordinary few days after his dramatic release from a London prison.He was met by his wife Stella in an emotional reunion, hugging and kissing her after emerging from the plane.Supporters of Assange joined press from Australia and abroad at the perimeter of Canberra Airport as he landed, one holding a sign saying "Thanks Julian".The 52-year-old waved at them after disembarking, giving them a thumbs up and raising his fist in the air to applause and shouts of "welcome home".Among those greeting him was his father John Shipton, who hugged his son before he gave one final wave and entered a nearby building.
