Reasons to be fearful (or why I despise G Galloway)

1.












2. The Snu published an article today, alledgedly proving what I suspected, that GG was in the pocket of Saddam & his cronies. Anyone who can kow-tow to a mass murderer in this fashion loses all respect from me. An excerpt?
"But smarmy Galloway’s crawling around the tyrannical old Iraqi regime was even more disgusting. He famously met dictator Saddam in 1994 and told him: “Sir, allow me to salute your courage, power and indefatigability.”

Now The Sun’s exclusive new footage reveals he also revelled in meeting crazed torturer and murderer Uday more than once. In the video Galloway:
GREETS Uday like an old friend, shaking his hand and twice calling him “Excellency”.
JOKES with his pal about losing weight, going bald and failing to give up smoking cigars.
ORDERS watching journalists not to publish parts of their conversation.
TAUNTS America — and VOWS to stick with sadistic Uday “until the end”. "

sky reports the story a tad more coherently.

3. More reports are coming to light about the alledged fraud perpetrated by GG under the oil for food programme.The Guarniad reports it thus:-
"George Galloway faces the prospect of a criminal investigation into his activities by the serious fraud office, which has collected evidence relating to the oil-for-food corruption scandal in Iraq.

The SFO is following up two official reports published before Christmas in Washington, which detailed banking evidence that Mr Galloway's wife and his political campaign organisation both received large sums from Saddam Hussein, laundered through under-the-counter oil allocations."

Sounds like they've got him this time.

4. The Bullying way he attacked "b list" celebs in the celeb big brother house this year. If you missed it, it's here . examples?

"Big Brother reveals the REAL task result, read out by Maggot. Some of the housemates laugh at the intrigue of it all. Pete says, “What a liar you are” to Chantelle. Her face freezes, then she explains that she and Preston had to hide their access to the secret gentlemen’s club, but Pete and George are not convinced, especially given that Preston had sworn ‘on his mother’s life’.

Pete goes on, “Will Preston come to the Diary Room, your mother is dead.”Pete reminds them of the fact that George won the house £140 on his Richard & Judy task, yet they have still punished George by not letting him nominate. Chantelle reminds them that the ballot was secret, but George says he knows who voted against him. “Pipe down, Mr Indignation,” he tells Preston. “We’ll see what the viewers thought.”

George continues to attack Preston for “the aplomb with which you became a lying plutocrat in your gentlemen’s club!” Chantelle tries to explain again that they had to keep that secret, but Pete is having none of it. “You gorged yourselves like f**king hogs and lied about it.” He says they should have known the secret club would have been screened to the rest of the house.

Chantelle pleads that they understand the pressure they were under to keep it secret, but George continues. “You’re a sneak…it’s written all over your face” he says, adding that he for one would not have smoked the free cigars or eaten the luxury food in the club. Preston refers to the nominations and reminds George that he broke the rules, thus bringing about his punishment. Pete tells them that Rula “forced the truth out of him”, and George insists “I was telling the truth.”

George shouts at Preston, “The cheat in this picture will be vividly evident to everyone watching…you’re a sneak and a liar and you’re exposed to the whole country!”

Dennis speaks up. “Wait til the final day when we have to see each other…I’ll let all you have it, I don’t give a damn.” Chantelle says that’s obvious. Dennis asks her what she knows, “You’re just some ‘innocent’ little kid in this f**king house for no f**king reason, I don’t see why…”Chantelle says “’Cause I’ve been given a chance, does that bother you?”

She goes on to ask Dennis why he has to attack her with petty put-downs, including, “’I’ve had better girls than you’. Do you think I’m bothered? How immature and petty is that?” she asks him. Dennis erupts and asks why Chantelle doesn’t get annoyed with Pete for putting her down in a similar way.Dennis says all their conflict makes great TV and soon brings up the argument he and Michael had the other night over cigarettes.

Michael had distributed a new supply of cigarettes and kept his own in a drawer. “Who gave you the authority?” shouts Dennis. Michael argues that it was agreed that the cigarettes be distributed, and Preston says it shouldn’t matter to Dennis anyway, as he doesn’t smoke them. Michael asks Dennis “What is your problem?” and says he is “very aggressive”.

George says Michael is also aggressive in a different way. “As you’re attacking,” he tells Michael, “let me attack you.”George starts to shout at Michael for his “strop” over not being given a cigar by him. He tells Michael he is self-centred and has now alienated his close allies. “I was close to you and Dennis was close to you, and you stabbed both of us because of your mania over cigarettes. You have no loyalty to anybody.” George goes on to say that Michael had effectively betrayed him as he did not stick up for him during the ballot. “You’re the most selfish, self-obsessed person I have ever met in my entire life!...All you speak about it you, because all you care about it you…number one.”

Michael starts to speak and Preston again tries to defend Michael, but George carries on. He tells Michael that the only reason he spends so much time in the kitchen is to ensure he’s on camera. Michael asks him “What mission are you on?” He tells George that he is taking his nomination as a personal slight and lashing out, and that as such he is an “easy target”. George dismisses him, “Poor me, poor me, pour me another drink.”

5. From Wikipedia :-

"he called the Labour government "Tony Blair's lie machine" [1] and stated that British soldiers should "refuse to obey illegal orders."

I mean, free speech is ok, but to call the government a lie machine, & to encourage troops to refuse orders would have been deemed treason in the past, & led to a "short step & a long drop"

In March 2000, he married Dr. Amineh Abu-Zayyad, a Muslim Palestinian biologist. Five years later she announced to The Sunday Times that she would be filing for divorce, alleging that Galloway had been unfaithful throughout their marriage. She said she had "received a number of phone calls from women who claim to have had romantic links with him", but that Galloway had told her it was "a plot by an unnamed intelligence service to discredit him

Yeah, right.

From 1983 to 1987, Galloway was General Secretary of War On Want, a charity founded by Harold Wilson. Galloway increased its income sevenfold, but later faced accusations of misuse of his expenses account, which was £21,000 in 1985-86, to stay in luxury hotels when on foreign trips. He paid back £1,720 after an audit identified a lack of controls, but was cleared of any dishonesty.
War On Want was later found to have been insolvent, and subsequently dismissed all its staff and went into administration.

He faced an almost immediate scandal when, as part of the War on Want expenses probe, he was asked about a conference on Mykonos, Greece and replied:
I travelled to and spent lots of time with people in Greece, many of whom were women, some of whom were known carnally to me. I actually had sexual intercourse with some of the people in Greece.

In 1997, Galloway launched a newspaper, East, largely bankrolled by the Government of Pakistan, focusing on Pakistan and promoting a pro-Bhutto position. He also worked with the National Lobby on Kashmir, promoting Pakistan's claims to the territory. When Bhutto's government fell, Galloway met with the new Government and wrote a series of letters asking them for funding, which he ultimately obtained.[10] While there was no suggestion that any of his actions in the case were illegal, the way in which he apparently put himself under an obligation to the Government of Pakistan damaged his reputation in some eyes.

I could go on, but the more I read, the more sickened I am
