George Galloway ist ein britischer Politiker. Er vertrat seit den Unterhauswahlen 2005 bis Mai 2010 die 2004 neu gegründete Respect The Unity Coalition im Unterhaus als Abgeordneter für den Wahlkreis „Bethnal Green & Bow“ im Osten Londons. Zuvor war er Mitglied der Labour Party gewesen und vertrat von 1987 bis 2005 die Wahlkreise Glasgow Hillhead . Im Oktober 2003 wurde Galloway nach 36 Jahren wegen parteischädigenden Verhaltens aus der Labour Party ausgeschlossen.

Galloway tritt regelmäßig für den iranischen und russischen Staatssender auf, was ihn 2014 zum Abgeordneten mit den dritthöchsten Nebeneinkünften machte. Seine Sendungen im englischsprachigen iranischen Staatsfernsehen wurden wegen Parteilichkeit durch die unabhängige britische Medienaufsicht beendet. Wikipedia

George Galloway: Zitate auf Englisch

“They intend, if they can, to have an Iraq Americana, but the Iraqi people have decided otherwise.”

George Galloway

David Usborne, &quot; Hitchens vs Galloway: The big debate http://news.independent.co.uk/world/politics/article312968.ece&quot;, The Independent, September 16, 2005 <br class="br">During a debate with Christopher Hitchens, September 14, 2005

“We did not suspend our democracy in our darkest hours why are we suspending it now? the fawning over Thatcher had gone too far. We have had enough of this, It has gone on too long and it has gone too far. This put the tin hat on it the idea that we should suspend a vital part of our democratic process for a party political and private funeral, Mr Churchill didn’t ask for Parliament to be silenced, for confrontations across the House to be forbidden. When our soldiers were being laid waste in the Norway debate, the House of Commons perhaps rose to its finest 20th Century moment. Nobody said: ‘Our armed forces have suffered a disaster, the House of Commons cannot meet, the clash of ideas cannot be heard, we must muffle the drums and silence ourselves The so-called Beast of Bolsover said the argument was about class and that it was "one rule for those at the top and another for those at the bottom. We are here talking about the thing that we sometimes suggest has gone away class, That's what it is, it's about class. It's about the fact that people out there have to live their lives in a different way and there's one rule for those at the top and there's another for those at the bottom. It's never changed, I wish it had, but it hasn't. So when I heard about the chain of events it seemed to grow like topseed - first of all there was going to be some sort of ceremonial funeral, and then the next thing you (Mr Speaker) tell us that the chimes of Big Ben are going to stop and then we hear about the fact that we are going to abandon Prime Minister's question time, I mean, what's it all about? That's why the people out there are angry, a lot of them.”

“Not at all; not at all… as is obvious now; now they admit that. He was hated by political opponents as he suppressed all opposition political forces, but he wasn't hated by the ordinary Iraqi - no, not at all.”

“I am on the anti-imperialist left.”

George Galloway

The Stalinist left? &quot;I wouldn&#x27;t define it that way because of the pejoratives loaded around it; that would be making a rod for your own back. If you are asking did I support the Soviet Union, yes I did. Yes, I did support the Soviet Union, and I think the disappearance of the Soviet Union is the biggest catastrophe of my life. If there was a Soviet Union today, we would not be having this conversation about plunging into a new war in the Middle East, and the US would not be rampaging around the globe.&quot; <br class="br">Simon Hattenstone, &quot; Saddam and me http://www.guardian.co.uk/g2/story/0,3604,792765,00.html&quot;, The Guardian, September 16, 2002 <br class="br">2000s
