It’s been a couple years since this loon made any news. I actually thought he’d been thrown out of the govt.
He was originally a MP in the Labour Party (LP) from Glasgow, Scotland until he was shown to be both mercenary (Oil-for-Food Scandal) and whacko to the point he was drummed out of the LP in 2003. The charge was for bringing disrepute to the Labour Party.
Now he is, as stated, a MP for the Respect Party, a re-badged Socialist Alliance and fellow traveler far left political party. Member organizations include Members of the Muslim Association of Britain and Muslim Council of Britain, The Socialist Unity Network and The Revolutionary Communist Party of Britain (Marxist-Leninist) RCPB(ML).
An example of his politics [2005]; Galloway called for a global alliance between Muslims and progressives as, according to him, they "have the same enemies"! By reputation he is a good debater who has never let truth get in the way of a good speech. Sounds somewhat familiar don't it?
