What's next? They'll simply remain disaffected with a nutter representing them.
Don't forget, as a member of parliament he pissed off for 3 weeks for a crap TV show.
He's a nutter? Ok. If you say so. The views of the many thousands of people who voted for him are but a trifle I guess.
I'm more concerned with the damage being done by Dave, with the complicity of the LibDems....as well as the failure to present effective opposition by Ed and his pals.
I don't know about nutter. I don't subscribe to most of his views but he is smart.

There's a full version of this or the 5 sectioned pieces and it's around 47 minutes long in total.
If you haven't seen it, he makes monkeys of the senators.
It doesn't really start until 6:40 in to this first clip.
One thing that is obvious from the dismantling of the US Senate case against him AND his successful campaign in Bradford is that he is extremely thorough. He works very hard.
He's a very bright fella too.
I don't agree with everything he says and he's a bit too much of an "ego" for my tastes, but his observations about US/Western foreign policy in the Middle East and Afghanistan/Pakistan are pretty much spot on....and one reason why he has struck a chord in Bradford.
I think he also represents an alternative to voting for any of the mainstream parties which are really no different from each other nowadays. In some respects, it doesn't really matter what the one individual stands for, as long as he IS an alternative; that, to me, is the good thing here. A kick up the 'arris for the Complacency coalition of tory/Libdem/Labour.
GG used all his street fighting experience to thump a lacklustre Labour opponent who was unprepared to fend off a barrage of dirty tricks.
Brave New World? Plucky underdog?
I think not.
A warning to the smug and complacent?
Certainly.

Oh really? Are his views on Assad spot on as well? Known to the civilised world as a monster, Assad in the opinion of Galloway is a man of "reforming zeal".
Galloway is nothing but a shameless opportunistic politician, no better than any of the rest and in many cases worse. He will do nothing for the people of Bradford West just as he did nothing for those of Bethnal Green when he was their MP.
