Notorious anti-Semite who believes Israel has no right to exist and has been an ardent Hamas-supporter for many years, even holding an honorary Palestinian passport bestowed upon him by the leader of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, George Galloway wins By-election for Rochdale MP.
Politico.eu George Galloway, a pro-Hamas firebrand who has attacked Labour’s stance on the Israel-Gaza war, won the Rochdale by-election Thursday in a blow to the U.K. opposition party.
Following a bad tempered and at-times chaotic contest, the veteran former Labour MP who was kicked out of the party under Tony Blair in the 2000s won in Rochdale by almost 6,000 votes — and immediately took aim at Labour’s current leader.
“Keir Starmer, this is for Gaza,” Galloway declared, after running a stridently pro-Palestinian campaign in his efforts to win the seat for his own Workers Party of Britain. Starmer, he said, would “pay a high price, in enabling, encouraging and covering for the catastrophe.”
His campaign material even included the Palestinian flag, and branded Labour “pro-Israel”, adding that the two main parties were “two cheeks of the same backside.”
The opposition Labour party — which swiftly said sorry to voters Friday morning — had initially been expected to hold on to the seat in Greater Manchester in a contest triggered by the death of long-serving MP Tony Lloyd.
But Labour was forced to publicly suspend its campaigning for its candidate in the seat, Azhar Ali, after he claimed Israel had “allowed” the Hamas attacks on October 7. With no party machine behind him, Ali stayed in the race as the de-facto Labour candidate — but he finished in fourth place.
His victory underlines the deep divisions in the U.K. over the Gaza conflict, which has seen some British MPs raise fears for their safety amid heightened tensions.

SKY News First elected to parliament in 1987, the controversial ex-Labour MP has now returned to the House of Commons, representing his own Workers Party of Britain.
Galloway has long been outspoken about issues in the Middle East, going as far back as campaigning for Dundee to be twinned with Nablus, a city in the West Bank, in the 1970s. He says that in 1977, after returning from a trip to Lebanon, he pledged to devote his life “to the Palestinian and Arab cause”.
Since 2008 he has worked for Press TV, the Iranian state-run television channel. He has also been pictured with two heads of Hamas, including being pictured with current leader Ismail Haniyeh.
In 2013, while MP for Bradford West, he walked out of a debate with a university student after discovering they were Israeli. “I don’t recognise Israel and I don’t debate with Israelis,” he said.
The British Government have caused Britain to be a mass breeding ground for Muslims and once the Muslims have grown in population then there will be civil war in the UK … Today there are areas in cities that are a no go area for non Muslims as they are given the feeling they don’t belong within a community that has become a Muslim area. The Muslims hate the western way of life and they hate Christians and their aim is to make the UK a Muslim country … Enoch Powell predicted that when civil war happens those politicians will be long gone so the politicians do not care about what will happen when the Muslims have put up their population enough for a war against the non Muslims, so the politicians will never get the wake up call and the wake up call is no longer going to do anything to prevent the UK becoming a Muslim country.
Enoch Powell probably never envisioned it would get to be as terrible it is today.
The UK Government is to blame for areas in cities that are now no go areas for white non Muslims because the UK Government has created a United Kingdom that is a breeding ground for Muslims. Once the Muslims put up the population then the UK will be hit by a civil war as the Muslims are against the way of western life in the UK.
George Galloway Calls POLICE On Journalist For Asking Questions
This is just what the Muslims do. When the move into a territory and get enough numbers they start running for government seats, then they change the laws to favor Muslims and to dehumanize dhimmis.
We’re going to have to go to war with them since they’ve chosen this path. The U.S. must get a new President in the WH and hopefully Trump. Europe is going to need a strong force and hopefully… you know.
When this peace of defecation is so rotten that the Liberals throw him out, one knows he is has no merit. Just when one thinks that it can’t get any worse, it does.
