oh my, can you say total bleeping victory? Mr. Galloway will live and die a pariah!

Yeah, but will he lose the election in Glasgow? Those folks have tolerated everything up to this....I'm not sure treason is enough to get them to vote for someone else.

More likely that the local Labour Party wouldn't select (nominate) him to run as their candidate. They don't have primary elections, so the party establishment has a large measure of control over who runs on the party's ballot line.

Galloway could still run as an independent or minor party candidate (asssuming he's not in jail), but his is presumably a safe Labour seat.
