    He attempted to twist and bend every question to his own favour. Typical politician yes, but a horrible manipulative self serving man none the less.

    And my view.. he lost, and ran.

    The ’three cheeks of the same backside’ slogan is beginning to catch on. Oh how labour and the condems must be hating George.

    Its about time someone says things as they are…….

    Small wonder that most of the Galloway interviews followed the same predictable path yesterday. Persistent evasiveness, manipulation of questions and answers, arrogance and then the mixture of fake charm and outright hostility. These are the classic trademarks of self-serving bullies especially the Internet bullies. Does he have a pseudonym on the chat forum?

    The beauty of democracy is that these people are allowed their moment in the sun. The downside is the inevitable Icarus moment and the sad consequences for his poor constituents when this inevitably arrives.

    hardly a brief moment in the sun, he’s been an mp since 1987.

    as for the icarus moment, why do you perceive that his ambition outweighs his resources ? i don’t think there’s any evidence of that. in fact i’d say that he has repeatedly been overt with his opinion and still gets elected.

    unless of course this is about your own personal prejudice rather than anything based on fact.

    Sounds like most politicians then.

    I think that stating that someone is a self-serving bully is by default a personal prejudice, as I’m not aware of any objective metric to quantify such an assertion. Of course, in light of that, people who think he’s a sound chap are also expressing an equally personal prejudice.

    I like him. He might be a gobby obnoxious ****, but at least he’s our gobby obnoxious **** 😀
    Him and Bob Crow should form their own party and run for parliament..
    GO GEORGE!!!……. 8)

    well obviously but i haven’t done that. merely pointed out some facts that counter claims based on prejudice.

    I think he is everything his critics say he is.

    I admire him none the less.

    If the Liblabcons are three cheeks of the same arse he’s the splinter in the banister of life.

    That woman interviewer, whoever she was, exposed her ignorance concerning politics and political history, although I’m guessing she’s probably got at least A level politics if not a degree.

    The daft tart should have known that the term “spring” is a common, long established term, used to describe a non-violent rebellion, and it predates recent events in the Middle-East.

    In fact the term is probably being incorrectly used in the Middle East where intense fighting between two armed opposing sides has occurred.

    So “spring” in a political context refers to a peaceful rebellion against the existing status quo by ordinary people, the very thing which happened on thursday in Bradford West. Galloway was perfectly correct in using the term, and we are indeed now in spring.

    For the interviewer to accuse Galloway of being arrogant for using the term exposes her own ignorance. And she was in fact being arrogant herself – I doubt very much that she would have been so rude and contemptuous towards any other successful candidate who had just won an election. And won in such a convincing and indisputable way.

    Having said all that, Galloway is a big-headed git.

    But gorgeous.

    it would appear not…they seem to me to be calling you a sexist…now were you not making a point about a term being incorrectly used 🙄

    I don’t give a toss what I’m called. I use the term ‘tart’ extensively, I have no idea whether it’s “sexist” or not. And you won’t be surprised to hear that I’m hugely unbothered whether it is or not.

    You mean like keep his mouth shut so he doesn’t get kicked out of the Labour Party and lose a safe Labour seat ?

    Do some of you guys actually ever stop to think before typing some nonsensical drivel ? I mean seriously, why do it ?

    If you want slimey scumbags who will do anything or shaft anyone to get elected then just look at Blair’s clones.

    What about architect of the Iraq War Donald Rumsfeld with Saddam ?

    Or maybe Maggie with Mugabe ?

    That speech to the senate is pure class, he’s a great public orator. It’s pretty sad how few people there are in mainstream politics who have the balls to speak like that about issues like the Iraq war.

    dont agree with his politics but you must admire his ability to win votes.. in an area dominated by ethnic groups in an area where he has no physical links he turns up takes on all comers and whips em.
    it says more of the poor quality of the rest of the politians than it does of the quality of him, i believe he sincerely believes and would love to be part of a real socialist labour party which he and many others feel might better restrian the condems rather than the lookalike sounda like libs cons and new labour..

    I’m not sure you can draw too many conclusions from politicians shaking hands with scumbags – it sort of goes with the job sometimes

    Maybe, but Uncle Adolf didn’t have to have such a big grin on his face when he shook Neville Chamberlain’s hand.

    Aye, but Neville was trying to avert a war, rather than trying to get a good taste of clagnut.
