Well I guess by that analagy, Galloway is the Marmite of politics.

Robert Retford who UK promoting sundance festival.

But he said something which he said about american politics how terrible it is but it strikes so much accord with british politics too.

He Politics said its all about winning, its all about the ego of winning what people will say and do to win.

He absolute brilliant

Listen to it yourself its about american politics but hell he talking about uk politics too. It goes off to his career abit but its quite relevent thing to compare our polititians following the american style of just giving image to get in office.

It will interesting that George Galloway is certainly did this to get to win. Others out there done the exact same to get power.

I think that the bunch of idiots are the people that voted for the party that are in power at the moment.

Sometimes l wake up in the morning thinking that we are still living in the fifities, no money to pay bills.

George Galloway celebrates 'Blackburn triumph' on Twitter after winning West Bradford by-election

Good start by forgetting where he is the MP for, then trying to blame his twitter being hacked. Still being useless and a shameless liar is in the required qualifications for an MP.

Would it not have been easier to admit a sleepless night of celebrations and excitement plus over zealous auto correct caused the slip rather than trying to blame a hacker and deny ever making a mistake.

Another interesting point in that article...

Quote:

One leaflet circulating Bradford in the days leading up to the election, berated rival Labour candidate Imran Hussain: “God KNOWS who is a Muslim. And he KNOWS who is not,” it said. “Let me point out to all the Muslim brothers and sisters what I stand for. I, George Galloway, do not drink alcohol and never have.”

Mr Galloway denies it came from him.

I thought this was entertaining too:

Quote:

He told constituents after his win: “All praise to Allah! By the Grace of God we have won the most sensational victory in British political history. There is a tidal wave waiting to break all over the country, not just in Bradford.”

Does he believe in de-evolution for Scotland and if so, why the hell is he taking control of an English constituency?

I'd trust every idiot in the main stream parties before him every time because they are just idiots compared to him.

Total loony pandering to superstitious lunatics, and as they multiply in numbers they will no doubt use their votes to force us to change to their ways, little by little. Our own democratic system used against us.

I think it's called The Awakening.

I would have thought the "New World Order" would be preventing that......

They obviously had their eyes off the ball as they were rubbing their hands at the thought of this LINK. There again, it is April 1st so it could just be a BBC prank.
