George Galloway announces he will run for London Mayor
BBC ^ | 5-28-2015 | BBC

Controversial former MP George Galloway is to seek election as the next mayor of London.

The Respect Party leader, who has threatened a legal challenge over his general election defeat, declared his bid on Twitter.

Mr Galloway posted a picture of himself sitting on an unmade bed with his young son and the slogan "Dad, you've got to do this. I've got your back!".

"I'm standing for Mayor of London 2016," he added.

On 7 May, Mr Galloway lost the Bradford West Commons seat he took from Labour, his former party, in a 2012 by-election.

The seat was won by Labour's Naz Shah by a majority of more than 11,000 following a bitter campaign.

Hey, New York elected a Marxist Nutjob as Mayor, why not London, too?

Sadly, given the large numbers of muzzies now living in London, he has a decent chance at winning.

Funny! About a year ago, I wrote he was once Mayor of London - confusing him with Red Ken. I was excoriated by several of our Brit friends here, lol.

I remember him eating food out of a dog dish on UK national TV.

Gorgeous George - you’ve got to earn respect before you can expect to receive respect.
