Galloway prepares to go it alone.

A deluxe cell for one.

"Galloway prepares to go it alone."

He will be lucky to "go it" period!

However, House of Commons records say Mr Galloway used some of the cash raised to pay for 14 of his 15 overseas trips between September 1999 and January 2002.

Would that include trips to his luxury villa in Portugal?

Yes, a 'cell' just large enough, six feet underground, where they can dump the body after the execution.

"The Telegraph is going to have to show the court where the United Nations sent me my cheque, when they did so, why they did so," said Mr Galloway.

That information will probably be in the same books that explains the millions upon millions of US dollars Saddam was tucking away.

I'm glad that Liberals are such dedicated champions of the poor and disenfranchised, as compared to greedy corporate types. God bless 'em.

Galloway should worry about whether or not he will retain his freedom more than he should his labour Party membership.

I have a strong feeling this, Saddam supporter and Traitor, Galloway will be charged with Treason

"But, just in case, my friends and I are busy building the new Glasgow Central constituency into an impregnable fortress of real Labour values.

Glasgow George: "And the the reporters are committing suicide against the gates of Glasgow!"

And I thought Baghdad Bob was funny....

Speaking from his luxury holiday villa in Portugal

Some are more equal than others, indeed.

This and other Oil for "Food" corruptions carried out under the auspices of a complicit UN are becoming glaringly obvious.

Where is Woodward, Bernstein, the NYTimes crowd and the rest of the fussy Pulitzer kids on this one?

His history is (a) denial, (b) lawsuits - make it difficult and expensive to pursue him.
He is trash, hopefully to finally get his just desserts.

This is better than anything I've read in a book, or seen on television, in YEARS.

Mr Zureikat, who was placed under house arrest in Jordan at the start of the Iraq war,

Interesting tidbit.

"An impregnable fortress of real Labour values."

LOL.

My favorite line is this one:

"It’s not a charity; it’s a political campaign and always has been," he said.

Oh wait, no! THIS one is my favorite:

His main defence was that if the accusations were true, the UN would have him listed as one of the select few entitled to profit from the oil-for-food programme.

Stop, George, yer killin' me...

Hi Happygal. How are you today?

This is just a wonderful thing to follow. Galloway is foaming at the mouth and seem to be endearing himself to no-one.

I just love to see worms exposed!

This is sounding more and more like a novel.
