Who is George Galloway? George Galloway is a British MP who speaks out harshly against U.K. foreign policy on Iraq. He has carried out several unique actions to bring worldwide public attention to the toll sanctions are taking on the people of Iraq. About two years ago Galloway, with a few colleagues, drove a red double-decker bus from Big Ben to Baghdad, stopping for speaking engagements in 11 countries en route. About a year later, he challenged the flight embargo on Iraq by commissioning a plane to fly from England to Baghdad - the only peaceful plane to fly to Iraq from England since sanctions were imposed. This made daily newspapers in many countries around the world. George is also founder of the "Mariam Appeal", an organisation that seeks to illegally provide medicine for children in Iraq. Galloway resides in the U.K. with his Palestinian wife and their two children.
